Too true - it aint THAT expensive.

I know someone who JUST LAST WEEK booked a Qantas return to LAX in April for $1299.00      
And with the dollar the way it is at the moment its a fairly affordable trip - you can LOCK the rate in if you buy your $$ on a money card now as well, rather than using your credit card and copping 'whatever' the rate is at the time of travel. I know someone who JUST LAST WEEK bought a heap of US $$ on a prepaid money card and some US cash  

Consider that apart from food ( which is about the same $ but you get more and its somehow more filling )  ,  a lot of items in the USA are half the price they are here - then its a worthwhile time to check out a trip in detail.


Cavey - you MAY find that these days the airlines 'charge extra' for the emergency seating places if you want to secure them.
Best way to get em is to 'know someone"  

Enjoy the planning mate.


Hey Adam - when will you be in New York?

Aussie Pinball wouldnt be the same without its famous (or infamous) Wotto's pinball travels to the USA trips....The last one u did was a pearler....Apparently, the trip from LA to Chicago was a 4 hour flight...that $1500 I was quoted included that, which only adds an extra $200 (or $100 from LA to Chicago) the way they do the fares from over here...bargain !   I always think I am going to have a smash in one of their hire cars cause I get the wrong lane or side of the road type deal...maybe it will be taxis or shuttles, or just the occassional Limo for me...Make sure Wotto if u go again, lots of cool photos like last time......
