Cross County Flights - Travel Deals

The United States is a big ole country. All you need to do to appreciate its size is to take a road trip from one coast to the other. We’re talking a lot of driving and a lot of time spent looking at fast food restaurants and empty, flat farmland. There are, of course, lots of interesting and exciting things to see and do, but you’ll always remember the dull parts. Road trips are a ton of fun and if you have the time to do it, traveling from one coast to the other is well worth the effort.

If you don’t have the time or you can’t stomach the thought of listening to AM radio talk shows for 3,000 miles, you could always choose to fly and these days flying is probably cheaper than paying for gas, accommodations and food. One of the most consistently cheap airlines I have found when it comes to cross country flights is AirTran. If you book a ticket before January 18, 2007, for example, and fly before May 23, 2007 you can land yourself a round-trip ticket from Los Angeles to east coast cities like Boston, New York and Washington, DC for $260. That ain’t too shabby and it sure beats having to eat at Waffle House every other meal.
