The total, before you go

$1,232 for two · 2 nights · flights, hotel, taxes & fees

Flights $800 + hotel $432, taxes in · a checked bag each adds about $240

Frontier · with a stop · 7h 32m

The catch: The $400 fare has one stop and takes 7h 32m on the way out, and a checked bag is about $240 for two, not in the total.

Worth it if you two want food and jazz and don't mind a 7h 32m one-stop flight out; skip it if hurricane season worries you.
