Assuming we make our connecting flights, Quinton McDawg and I are headed to Omaha for Friday and (if necessary) Saturday's College World Series Games. Yesterday, we fluked into flights from ATL on Delta for 25,000 Sky Miles.
I was shocked to pull a deal like that. On Monday, there were still SkyMiles deals available for Monday - Wednesday championship games for 37,500 miles each, but we couldn't make those days work.
Flying direct to Omaha from just about anywhere in the Southeast is pretty expensive without some reward travel assistance. Some options to consider
- Connecting through Chicago
- Connecting through Memphis
- Departing from Birmingham on Southwest
I hope you can make it up. If not, I hope you can sneak out of work on Friday at 2:00 pm to see the Dawgs take on Stanford.

GATA! Go Dawgs!
Have a safe flight. Take plenty of pictures and I fully expect a report on just how good a real Omaha Steak is.
What hotels downtown are you finding that cheap?
Everywhere in town I've called wants $200-$275 a night?
Anon - Re: Hotels
Go to Hilton.com. Search Omaha, distance 5 miles and "All Hilton Properties" from the drop down menu below the city.
They're right there.
You can also search Orbitz.
God's Speed!
I'm going to be on a plane during the majority of the game. Sucks
Wow! Based on your budget. Michael Adams' party should get by on a paltry 4 mil.
