Mom is Shopping for Airline Tickets

My mom is shopping for airline tickets so I’m putting up some ads for her to use and to give me a little kickback.

My mom took the Amtrak from Chicago to Eugene last week and is staying through the end of the month. When she leaves she’s heading to see my sister in Arkansas but unfortunately the train doesn’t take her where she needs to go.

We looked on Orbitz this morning a little bit and found something funny. We searched a ticket from PDX to XNA.. the itinerary came back with a 2 stop flight… Portland to Eugene to Denver to Fayetteville = 201 with taxes & fees. Now here’s the funny part.. we’re in Eugene so we figure hey save the drive and the emissions and all that.. If she were to book out of Eugene the ticket is like $30 more.  I don’t get it.

Anyway, if you’re traveling soon maybe there’s a deal here for you too.
