need help! Airfare from Buffalo?

[Swalter6]

Hey everyone, I can't seem to find a cheap airfare to vegas from Buffalo, the lowest i've seen is $340. I'm leaving on May 31st, so i need to find something pretty fast, i'm only going for 3 nights staying at the RIO 2 nights for free. I have tried most of the travel sights, all the same prices, some were ridiculous, so does anyone have a suggestion or an idea? Maybe a site that i may not have tried? Thanks for your help!

You didn't specify which Buffalo so I'm assuming it's NY. Drive over to Toronto (airport code YYZ) and you can fly American or US Airways for $283, Delta at $284 or Northwest @ $286. You can go to the airlines websites direct or have your travel agent go to www.beta.itasoftware.com (http://www.beta.itasoftware.com) for booking details. You can also use the booking details direct if you prefer.

How many other Buffalos are there?

I found it on Hotwire for $298, leaving Buffalo 5/31 returning 6/2.

[brooklyngirl]

Hotwire is actually cheaper. Coming back on 6/3 (three nights) it's $243.

What I don't like about these tickets (same as above promo w/ travelocity, priceline, etc.) is that you do not get to choose the airline or your schedule.

[HoyaHeel]

Oops, I only remembered 2 nights at Rio, so I assumed 3 days 2 nights when I did the search on Hotwire.

Depending on when, why & where I travel, I'm not always so picky about which airline & what time I fly, and I have almost NO brand loyalty, but I haven't used Hotwire. Used Priceline and that was sort of a nightmare but in the long run we ended up going First Class to our destination, so that part of the trip was GREAT!

[Swalter6]

Thanks for the good tips, I am staying for 3 nights, so that hotwire price may be the best that i can get, but i don't like not knowing the flight times either and i don't want to make 2 or 3 connections either.

[Swalter6]

Thank you everybody for your help, I booked my flight for $243 and I am staying at Harrah's for 3 nights for $49, i can't wait, see ya'll in vegas!!!!
