I'll hold off until the fares from Canada drop. 2 weeks ago it was $422 CAD. Now, it is around $745 CAD.

I hadn't been checking in here, since I'm not sure I can go, still... but I bought Jeremy his ticket for almost $100 less than we usually pay. And I bought mine anyway (since the boss was on vacation, the supervisor-in-charge authorized my time off... do you think that'll fly?!) for cheaper than I got J's (since it's a shorter trip. 
)
)Prices from O'Hare to ATL are the same that I paid last year roughly $230 per person, no deals happening right now.
I live right by O'Hare, I've tried using Midway and I had to spend an hour plus on public trans to get there.
We may fly out of Newburgh (we did last year) but I'd prefer nonstop and their only time for that kind of sucks since it wastes a day we could be doing stuff in Atlanta. Plus our flight time changed 4x last year and we went from a 2 pm arrival to a 6 pm arrival. But we may be living in NYC by Sept so even if Albany was cheaper I can't book. I'm just annoyed that Albany to Atlanta seems to be one of the few flights not getting cheaper (and has actually been rising according to Priceline). Pretty sad when I can book a flight to Cancun or the United Kingdom for cheaper.

Check different days of the week. I scored my tickets a couple weeks ago for $164 roundtrip on American out of O'Hare.
LOL... I live about 5-10 minutes from Cleveland Hopkins airport, but I choose to drive an hour out of my way to fly out of Akron/Canton. Hopkins is huge, and a big pain in the ass, whereas Akron/Canton is smaller, easier to navigate, less crowded, and has cheaper parking and cheaper airfares.
When I lived in northwest Indiana, I had flown out of both Midway and O'Hare, and I feel the same way about Midway that I feel about Akron/Canton. Even though O'Hare was easier to get to (I could take the freeway straight to it), I preferred Midway by a long shot. YMMV.

That may of been the case before Midway expanded/renovated but not so much anymore. I've flown out of both O'Hare and Midway plenty of times for work and have found more and more headaches leaving from Midway when the lines are long. I'm guessing with flight travel these days being down it should be painless flying out of just about every airport now.
We finally booked our flights last night. We're flying out of Newark since Albany wasn't showing any signs of lowering in price. I've followed the prices for 3 months now and they hadn't budged more than $100. Plus, this way we were able to get a nonstop flight using one of our Continental vouchers. It wasn't the best price available but we only paid $80 out of pocket and have a second voucher to use for a trip to Austin at the end of Oct. Hotel is already paid for, badges purchased, and now I have three and a half months to save up so I can raid the vendors. I haven't bought a CD since PPIX.
Last year I flew out of McArthur on Long Island. It was expensive, and the a-holes on Southwest air managed to lose my luggage going down AND coming home.
Ah, the memories.
Fantastic show though.

We're driving two hours to Bloomington for $144 each, round trip + free parking. It beats the hell outta paying more or driving all the way. I figured it's not much longer a drive than driving to The Pearl Room. That's how I justify it to myself.

Wow, that's more expensive than flying out of Seattle. The ticket prices for me are $338 at the moment to ATL.

The only non stop Delta has from the Bay Area is out of San Francisco and the price is $349. Haven't seen anything lower yet.
Anyone else?

I only paid $20 more for round trips to Las Vegas at the end of the month, how fucked is that?
