i am beginning to feel lucky, i live near 3 regional airports about 1.5 hrs from my home, i live 3 hrs from st louis, 3.5 from chicago, and i can fly out of my home town to either of those(to stl or chi) for 50$-100$ round trip - but that would also mean having to get a room for the night for good connections, so i always drive the 1.5hrs to MLI or CID or PIA - either of which are within 100$ pp of ohare or STL to mbj, but it is still a wash, cause i end up paying for parking at the regional when i could leave me car at home if i flew out of my home town.. still it would be a little more - so i drive.. lol i have considered it though - and may do it one day..
