My oldest D went to college in Florida. It is an easy 2 hour non-stop flight from here and she is going against the “traffic”, meaning people fly to Florida for the holidays whereas she is flying north. I’ve gotten really good fares where she could fly home on a Thursday night (no Friday classes) and return on Sunday night for a quickie weekend at home. She was also interested in a schools in western PA, Indiana and North Carolina, but the drive from some would be from 8-12 hours by car (if she even had one on campus) and airfare as much as $400 or more.

On the other hand, younger D is staying in-state and I’m thrilled.
