    How much for you to fly to Florida? I’m in Canada, I can’t get anywhere for less than $400.

      It depends a lot on what day you want to go. Allegiant runs non stop flights that are pretty cheap, maybe $200 round trip? But they claim as low as $50 one way if you pick the right day. Only a couple days a week though and prices vary a lot week to week.

      Also the one time I did fly with Allegiant to Florida, I ended up stuck in the airport for almost 12 hours while they fixed a maintenance issue on the plane. 12 hours of “Just another 30 minutes. Stay near the gate” was miserable.

      And of course all this depends on where you live and where you’re going. If you don’t have a big airport close by, the flights are going to be longer and more expensive. Or you have to drive for hours to get to a big airport, what’s the point?
