Don't know if this is still true, what with the economy the way it is, but it's worth a look!

We used to do this for my parents when they would come visit us in Hawaii. For some reason, buying the ticket out of Hawaii was cheaper than them buying it out of RI. Strange, huh?
But, I think doing the same for this trip, there wouldn't really be too much of a savings. The price now is VERY good!

Yes but if we knew when you were passing we could stand on the shore and wave! :D

Don't give her ideas, Penny, she has enough of her own! :lol:
