Dang it, I KNEW it! The "Internet Special" prices have disappeared from the Southwest booking area, and now it's only a little cheaper than America West, and AW gives me the option of coming home an hour later (I have no idea how long the banquet will last), which gives me a little more time. Considering the "arrive two hours early" BS, even that may not be enough (the SW flight leaves Alb. at 5pm, while the AW flight leaves at 5:58pm; the banquet begins at 1:30pm). What to do, what to do...?
I hate flying anymore, and I haven't even flown since 9/11. It just seems desperately difficult, expensive, and fraught. Bleah.
Maybe we can stay an extra day, and come back Sunday morning...

Plus, if you didn't stay the extra night, you'd have to check out of the hotel before the banquet, and hassle with your stuff when you should be enjoying yourself.
You'll probably have better luck than I do at the airport. For some reason, I attract security checks. Do I look like a terrorist? Do I have "Democrat, Hassle Her" stamped in large letters on my forehead? Sigh. I don't get it.
Just remember, no metal! That includes the belt and eyelets on the shoes. At least, I've been stopped for that.
Sometimes the world is too ridiculous to even bother livin' in it...
