stick to these low budget airline like:  frontier, spirits, southwest, etc...
the seating might suck, but it's only 2-3 hours
SUCK IT UP, watch a movie, be there in no time

sometimes you can find great deal for like $25 one way ($50 round trip)
don't be picky

every place is good

I think we went to Phoneix AZ

I can understand flying cheap if you're not making any stops with flight times under 3 hours. I personally would spend the extra money to get the best flight times and connections if I fly across the country. It's one of those things where I can say, been there done that. Connections in Chicago, new York, Atlanta, LA, are all horrible. I would avoid these places if possible. Also I have learned that on your return flights its always best to take the red eye flight. Better service and more bang for your buck deal.

I disagree with you on the "better service" part
all these first class, first boarding, preSCAN TSA,... is just pure BULLSHIT
you know, the kind that you can smell from miles

I like to just sit back, relax, watch everyone trying to fight in to board the plane
bro, the plane ain't leaving
you can just relax

also, why are you spending $5-20 on a bottle of wine/beer/etc..
it's only a 3 hours flight, if you can't stop drinking for 3 hours
YOU SIR HAVE AN ADDICTION   O0


here's a pic of me and my wife
relaxing, watching HUMAN APE trying to fight each other to get to the plane
hahahha funny stuff can't make this shty up

papertowel spell

p=pebhmong so you know im legit

More people remember and enjoy having experiences rather than have a lot of money.

vacation doesn't have a budget.   If you penny pinch on a vacation, is it really a vacation?

If you can't afford it, might as well stay home.

Now if you are buying the same thing but on a deal, that is something different.  Let me give you my example. 

This is my flight to vegas for 2 people

Trip Price
Pricing breakdown
Flights    $120.74
Round-Trip Discount    -$40.00
Taxes, carrier charges & gov't fees    $135.26
Total (USD)    $216.00

and here's my room with my discount at the ceasar palace

Room 1

2 Adults, 0 Children
Sunday, 12/29/2019
$0.00
Monday, 12/30/2019
$0.00
Tuesday, 12/31/2019
$0.00
Wednesday, 01/01/2020
$0.00
Thursday, 01/02/2020
$0.00
Subtotal
$0.00
Taxes
$0.00
Resort Fees
$0.00 per room, per night
$0.00
Total
$0.00

now I'm going to take off my discount but because it is cyber week, anyone can get a little bit of a discount. 

Room 1

2 Adults, 0 Children
Sunday, 12/29/2019
$350.91 $263.18
Monday, 12/30/2019
$427.35
Tuesday, 12/31/2019
$509.85
Wednesday, 01/01/2020
$173.80 $130.35
Thursday, 01/02/2020
$140.80 $105.60
Cyber Sale
-$166.38
Subtotal
$1,436.33
Total Savings
$166.38
Taxes
$222.29
Resort Fees
$45.00 per room, per night
$225.00
Total
$1,883.62

Resort fee is already $45 a room per night.  When you hold a "loser" card, they waive your resort fees. 

So with a cushion of $1,883, I am still going to blow that $1,800, not through gambling but through eating and drinks and parties where tickets to see drake or calvin harris is about $200 each and tiesto for $40 and ladies $20 on monday which isn't so bad. 

I know.  It is like apples and oranges but how much you spend again?  If I don't spend and be penny pinch like you, I would only have to pay $200 for flight for 2 and eat ramen in the room.  Cheap vegas vacation ever.   :2funny:

I got the buffet covered too.

go to myvegas on http://www.facebook.com/myvegas

and play their free sluts.  I let it spin on the background while I do my work.  IT racks me up points for free buffet, free rooms and other free chit. 

One time I go to vegas with my friends as a cheap skate in college with no money in my pocket.  Free car ride from them, stay in their room for free, I eat mcdees $1 sandwich to survive at first.  The when you go to all them casinos, you make a players card and they give you $5 to sometime $25 free to play their slots.  What you win, you cash out and it is yours.  I actually made enough to buy buffets on the trip and was able to go home with $400.  I can not do that again.  You see, once you make a players card with a casino, they got your id on file so you can not get another one as a fresh virgin player to get them free promo points perks to play them slots. 

Some don't give me money to play their slots.  Some gives me used deck of cards and shot glasses and tee shirt.  At the planet hollywood, I signed up and when I get 100 points slots on my card on the same day, free buffet.  With this, you hit up the machine roulette.  You bet both red and black and hoping that green doesn't come out.  Each spin is automatic free points. 

Those were good ol poor days.  Almost like playing the ghetto style but gaining experiences out of it.  I got like a big stack of players cards from different casinos on and off the strips as souvenir.  At least the trip was a mission though.  It was fun.
