Travel Time

I just received an email from USAirways that my account has been inactive for too long and in order to not lose my miles I need to take a trip.
I LOVE it when someone tells me that I need to take a trip!
So here's the hard part: where do I go? It's a trip that will be paid for free as long as it is in the continental United States.
Here are my initial thoughts:
- go somewhere where it would be really expensive to buy the plane ticket otherwise
- go somewhere where I won't have to rent a car
- go to a state that I haven't visited yet so that I can mark it off my list - these states include:
Alabama, Alaska, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Oregan, Nevada
Although honestly, I'd be willing to go against any of these rules if anyone has a great idea!
So let me hear em...let's plan my next adventure!

The back up is that I use this flight to fly out to Arizona to white water raft the Colorado River...anybody ready to go with me on this?!

I'm in - just so long as I can see my kid - your cuz. Maybe he would go with us? Can't wait!

You should definitely not use this plane ticket to fly somewhere you could drive to in less than a day. And in the midwest, you'd want to have a car. My vote is for the Northeast or the Northwest.

Well, I also have a US Airways free ticket and I don't have a clue to what I would do if I got a letter like that. The trip to NY sounds good, esp with the NE driving tour - only 3 days?
Being the economist your father has taught me to be, I'd probably go to San Diego or Seattle - as far as US Airways goes...
Have fun planning!

why don't you want to rent a car?
