Okay, I truly am DONE after this.....
For $321.90 total, you can get a nonstop flight from Reno to Atlanta on
Monday, 31October, returning to Reno on Sunday, 6November. It's a 4 hour
drive
from Atlanta to Charlotte (shorter than your 5 1/2 hour drive to San
Francisco, plus you wouldn't have to pay to park your car for a week at the SF
airport). The flight times even work out well.....putting you into Atlanta in
the
middle of the afternoon so you can drive to Charlotte that day and you
wouldn't be flying out of Atlanta back to Reno until Sunday evening, so you'd
have
plenty of time to get there from Charlotte. Personally, I'd do the connecting
flight, but if you decide that you absolutely don't want to do a connecting
flight, then look at this option. This is a Delta flight and is only $321.90
(including all taxes and fees).
My point *IS* that if you LOOK, there are reasonable options available!!

P.S. Just out of curiosity, why don't people ever complain about flying to
the Canadian national?

These are one stop flights and cause the time to rise by a couple hours.
I really hate that for the dogs. 2 hours waiting for the flight, then
the flight of 5 hours and to add another 2 hours on layover with being
switched doesn't appeal to me. I would rather drive them 5 1/2 hours
and be able to have a non-stop so there is a little more control and I
always stop a few times for them to get out, stretch and potty. The
non-stop from SF is $518.
Switching planes for the Canadian Nationals was really hard on me and my
girl. I was a nervous wreck with all the stories I've heard about
losing dogs when switching planes - who cares about the baggage they
lose all the time. I could hear her screaming under the plane when we
stopped. :'( The baggage handlers didn't know what to do with her and I
ended up trying to calmly talk to the flight attendant into having them
leave her ALONE!
Now the hard part - convincing my husband that I NEED to buy the plane
ticket 9 months in advance for (NOT JUST ANOTHER TO ME) another dog show
that I am not sure I can even attend yet<G>.
