Hi Guys...
Just booked plane tickets to go to Chicago June 2nd-8th.
American Airlines is having a HUGE sale on plane tickets right now...
I was able to pick up some from Raleigh to Chicago for $178.40 each after taxes, and some from Denver to Chicago for $208.40 each...
That is a STEAL to me... They are having their spring sale, and almost every city in the US is on the sale list it looks like! Just thought I would give you guys some suggestions there...

The fare sale ends 3/18 however, so you have to jump pretty quick!!

Can generally get them cheaper just going Southwest, right? Then you have to worry about getting from Midway to the convention though...

yeah..but the airports run a shuttle for cheap. otherwise cabs are like $40 or so

I think if you fly into Midway, you'll need to either grab a cab or rent a car. It's at least a 30 minute drive from Midway to the Hyatt Regency O'Hare (in good traffic) and there's no shuttle from Midway to the airport.

Not necessarily a bad option. You just need to look at the cost of the cab or car and the airline ticket into Midway compared against the cost of flying into O'Hare and see which one makes more sense.

You can... but I have my frequent flyer miles booked with American and try to stick with them... it is a steal all around
