The total, before you go

£840 for two · 2 nights · flights, hotel, taxes & fees

Flights £648 + hotel £192, taxes in · a checked bag each adds about £181

Frontier · with a stop · 6h 7m

The catch: The $430 fare has one stop and takes 6h 7m outbound; the nonstop was $574 per person, and a checked bag isn't in the total.

Worth it if you want an easy city-and-mountains weekend for two; skip it if a stop on a 2-night trip feels like wasted time.
