Title: Best Way to get to Boise?
Post by: Golden Shaka on March 15, 2009, 05:58:10 PM
Prices look pretty steep for flights to Boise, nothing less then $700 or so.  Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on the best way to get there for the game on Friday?

Start driving on Wednesday, early morning.
Title: WI Flights?

With both UW and MU in Boise, any chance a few flights from WI to Boise are added?

I'm assuming you're flying from MKE.  If so, there are a couple flights under $700 if you use kayak.com.  

If you can come back Monday, there is a flight under $500 using multiple airlines.

I live in Phoenix and the Southwest Airlines fare to Boise on Thursday is $61 bucks.  Getting back is going to be a little more pricey but I'm probably going to pull the trigger.

Yah I am coming from Milwaukee and I am also open to Chicago but it seems like that may be just as expensive.  My roomates and I trying to pull something off but it may be a bit to pricey

Just bought O'Hare to Boise RT for $171. No joke. Leave Wednesday afternoon, return Tuesday early early morning.

Great, but what are you going to do in Boise for the other 4 1/2 days MU isn't playing?

Does the Taco Bell Arena floor color match Boise State's turf field?  If so, our baby blues will clash.

MIFL might just be a little too much for you to handle. Try planting potatoes instead. ;D

If you put the leave Wednesday, return Tuesday search into Kayak, you get U.S. airways at $309.

Otherwise, Salt Lake City is a 4.5 hour drive. You wouldn't be competing with hundreds/thousands of other people from the state of Wisco for the remaining seats on the schedules flights to Boise.
Title: just be glad you aren't paying to get 3 people there from Alabama - OUCH!
Post by: bamamarquettefan on March 15, 2009, 08:53:09 PM
I'm not even going to tell you what I paid for the three round trips from Alabama.  See you all there!  Tough crowd the first game, tough conference champ the second, and both great offenses.  But only one 6-foot-9 guy on each team - I'll take it.

Boise State has the sweet blue turf football field....

Good luck. Worst place to have a regional.
