Doesn't Will work for the airlines?  Let's see, before retirement my consulting fee was $200 per hour; I am 2 1/2 hours to the nearest airport =$500 of time; arrive at the airport for security and all the lines 1 1/2 hours before flight time = $300; time to fly there 2 hours = another $300; at least another hour on the ground in the airport after arrival = $200; $100 for the ticket; total cost $1,400.  22 hours driving time to Las Vegas from Nacogdoches in a VW; priceless.

Interesting analysis.
I wish driving were cheaper because I enjoy road trips much more than
flying...
Doesn't look like it will ever go the other way either.
Oh well.
