I think I found the best fare I could possibly find.  $211 total cost round-trip.  I can't see it ever getting lower. That price is only $80 each way + tax/fees. It is on NWA. I don't think I've ever flown with them. Hope they have good service.

I should be in Little Rock around 3pm on Wednesday, 4/16.  So then I'll get a car, and hope to be in Hot Springs between 4 and 5pm.  Should be there in plenty of time to make dinner as long as my flight is on time.

I figured I'm going to save about $600 by not driving my Vette. Not to mention, I'll get there in just a few hours, instead of 2 days.

Are we there yet!?!

I couldn't drive 18 hours straight, so that is two 9 hours days.

"Northworst", as they are nicknamed here in the Twin Cities, can surprise you so be prepared for anything.  Keep at least a days worth of clothing in your carryon bag just in case.  Once inside the secured area of the airport pick up a few snacks and a bottled beverage as well.  They didn't come out of bankruptcy making a profit by being generous.
