Flight for the cost of a good burger

I go to Tampa once per month for a coaching network.  I used to do a one day turn-around drive.  9+ hours of drive time and a classroom environment was a butt-kicker.

Once gas prices shot up, it really made no sense to drive.  So, I started flying same day out of Ft. Lauderdale.  It was cheaper than driving and easier on my body.  Well, life just got really good and the trip got a heck of a lot cheaper.  I just got $18 roundtrip flights with Spirit Airlines through November…heck of a sweet deal.

Now, I need to talk Bob into making the same flights so we can split a cab ride or hook up with one of the guys from the network.  If so, I’ll pull this trip off for less money than it would cost for a good meal.

While that is a good price, I know of no burger whether good, great, excellent, or otherwise that costs $18. My favorite burger at Fuddruckers is under $8. You could get 2 to 3 Fudd burgers for your plane ticket. I don’t know, plane ticket or hamburger. That’s a tough one Trav. :)

think burger, fries, coke, tax, gratuity. I’m there. If it’s just the burger…think burger at the airport.

[...] Travis found some really cheap plane tickets from Miami to Tampa, but on the other hand he exposed his elitist side by stating that burgers cost $18m [...]
