Ridiculous air fare from Chicago to Austin

$797. Round trip, nonstop. Don’t think I will go. Had planned to go but not with that price. Wouldn’t have to pay for hotel as wife has relatives in Austin. Weather too iffy to drive that distance. Never know what it will be. Guess I will watch from the recliner. GO TIGERS. Oh, I will grill a steak for lunch that day.

Honestly that’s not terrible. You’ll see $2000 for a 2 hour flight one-way sometimes. Airlines make loan sharks look like charities

I don't know how to get there but Ol' Waylon said he flew from Dallas to Austin on his way to El Paso! Whoops! Bob Wills is still the King!

also check one way flights.

Find the best priced one way flights. Check multiple airlines. I do this quite a bit and can usually save $200+ dollars.

Frontier had a nonstop round-trip from Atlanta to Austin for less than $300, but I think it's sold out now.
