Washington is the same way. This whole mass exodus from the state really plays havoc on my schedule. At least in Phoenix it's spread out over a couple weeks, though we deal with everyone else's spring break for six weeks.

Invariably someone asks me to head to the office right before spring break and I don't realize until I say yes, go to book a flight out and find that I can't get home without paying some outrageous sum of money. It was $800 today to fly PDX-PHX on AA, while AS and WN were sold out. Wasn't cheap to fly home last night, but I was able to get a seat.

The gate last night for AS640 looked like the fall of Saigon.
