Houston is about 2.5-3 hours been a while since I have been to Intercontinental so I can't remember exactly, for us it would need to be a substantial savings for the trip to be worth it. It appears San Antonio (107 miles from my door) is substantially cheaper than Austin, so we may do that. Since the Austin airport is actually about 40-45 miles it isn't exactly next door anyway. I am not quite ready to book but already found I could use one of the travel sites to figure out which airline is likely to be the cheapest, then hopped directly to the airline site and saw the same flight for about $40-50 cheaper for the total trip. I will try to watch Tuesday-Thursday. Unfortunately with my dog just having a $500 vet bill I am having to save a little money before I can buy but didn't want to ask for the day if it was going to cost way too much.
