US Airways Dividend Miles (Pre-FlightFund Merger) - Many Trips, Same Destination

I just started a new job and will be traveling the same route with great frequency--Washington (DCA) to Cleveland (CMH). Does anyone know of a flexible, repeat ticket that saves money?

Thanks.

What are your travel patterns and what type of "flexibility" do you need?

If, for example, you travel every M-F, then a one-way on the first M then round-trip F-M pairs to get in a Saturday stay can be cheaper (although the Saturday stay requirement has become a little less important recently).

I always return on F, but sometimes need to change the M flight. The back half of a trip is easier/cheaper to change than the front half, so this works well for me. If your patterns are different, there are different strategies.

btw, CMH is Columbus, CLE is Cleveland - which are you travelling to?

Yeah, its called driving to BWI and taking the $94 one-way flight on Southwest to either of CLE or CMH. That's the walkup fare.

Seriously, if it's actually CMH you're talking about, US one-way unrestricted trip on an RJ nonstop is $440 -- or over $1 per seat-mile. I travel frequently to DCA and refuse to pay these ridiculous fares -- I'd far prefer US and DCA (even on an RJ) but the cost savings from using WN is enormous -- $600 per roundtrip on unrestricted fares, which I am often forced to use when the trip is short notice. :td: for such extortionate fares.

CLE fares are similar, and they would all require a change of planes at PIT or PHL.
