Well, I am thinking of completing my Miami trip by Nov 8, and instead of flying back to Chicago, I can take a $109 flight from Ft. Lauderdale (southwest) to Manchester, NH. Stay in Manchester for the night, drive a.m. (2.5 hours) to the meeting, then go back home to Chicgo either that night or early Sat a.m. What are some you other people here planning to do? Good thing with southwest, there is no fees for changing, and since I fly southwest all the time, I can change these plans very quickly if for some reason the meeting doesnt take place.
