XNA is a hard airport to get good fares on west coast MRs because there are no DL or NW flights going west out of XNA. XNA is my home airport (Siloam Spgs). I have a flight to ATL coming up and the cheapest nonstop RT was north of $400. I wound up getting XNA-MEM-CLT-ATL and ATL-CLT-MEM-XNA for roughly the same price. It's hard to get miles originating in XNA. I used ITA and had to book on Travelocity since the routing wouldn't work @ DL.com. I have never had success "connecting" at a west coast airport when headed east. My best MR was a few years ago when I "connected" in DUB to get to ATL!

XNA really needs a LCC to get the prices down - I have paid over $1,600 RT (in Y) to get to BHM

It's nice to see another XNA'er on here!
