Hell when I was planning our trip to Cali a few months back, we planned on flying out from Vegas. But after looking at all the flights, they went from Vegas to Phoenix, then to Columbus. So I redid my search, leaving from Phoenix to Columbus and it saves us almost $200 a ticket. For me and the family, that is 5 tickets,,,6th is a baby so she doesn't count.. The extra day for the rental and a tank of gas was a lot cheaper! Plus we got to see the countryside.
