If I was still having my surgery in March, my tickets would only be a little over 200 for round trip. That's not bad at all!!

If it makes you feel better, there wasn't a special from any airport within a 5 hour driving distance of me. :) So...maybe you didn't miss out.

Where can I find a cheap airplane tickets because sw airlines talking 661 for a round trip ticket

I'm looking about every other day at tickets. The best airline/price is going to be so subjective...it depends on where you're flying from and when, in addition to how far in advance you are looking to book.

I've had reasonable success before going to whatever booking site you prefer (expedia, orbitz, kayak, etc) and setting up a daily notification for the flights you're looking for. I'll get them for a week or two and then have an idea of what a ticket usually costs, then attempt to get the best deal I can within the timeframe I need.

It's sort of luck of the draw, though...sometimes you'll pay more than you want because it's the time of the year or another factor you can't control.

I lived in Bristol/Abingdon Virginia for ten years! I love it there. Very beautiful :)

I live outside of Richmond. Lived in the state most of my life, but new to this area. I like it pretty well.

Southwest has good deals for sure BUT.... if you're very fat.... Like more than a BMI of 45ish... you need to be careful with them. They will sometimes approach customers before boarding and charge you for an extra seat EVEN IF YOU DON'T need it.. EVEN if you can squish yourself against the window and not take up your seatmates space... EVEN IF YOU ARE TRAVELING WITH A COMPANION and your companion ENJOYS being squished by you... They have still been known to charge fatties for two seats... then if the flight is not full, you can request a refund. Their reasoning behind this is that it's cattle call boarding and they can't guarantee that you'll be able to sit next to your seatmate and may wind up squishing a stranger.

DeeJack, do you live in a jet blue city? I got a good price from them.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
