Flights $688 + hotel $2,182, taxes in · a checked bag each adds about $160

The catch: It's one stop on Breeze, 8h 31m on the way out, and a checked bag is about $160 for two on top of the total.

Worth it if a one-stop flight and cool, gray days are fine for a city week; skip it if you want sun or a nonstop.
