      The other one was created elsewhere and when I made this subforum, I moved both here.

      I think the whole hijacking is mainly due to the excitement and should be forgiven (to me included). If there is any specific, everyone should now start a new topic about it.

              Hi Guys,

              I got flight costs through last night and it appears I won't be coming. Flights from Australia to US are ridiculously exe!!!
              AUD $4,218 plus taxes!!! not to mention the costs of accom [thanks for the share offer Dave; I was so looking forward to coming.] I just can't justify spending 5-6K for 5-6 days....

              Bitterly disappointed.
              😞

                  Shame its so expensive from Australia, have you tried skyscanner.net?

                  luckily form the UK not so bad under Β£600, just need to decide now where I want to spend a day in America? Choices are New York, Vegas, Philadelphia or Chicago? recommendations anybody? Its cheaper to fly to one of these cities then get a connecting flight to denver but my return flight is on monday night giving me the weekend to spend in one of these places.
                  So if anybody knows which one is a good idea please let me know as I have to book these flights ASAP before the prices rise!

                    Liam,

                    New York , just to see the Natural History Museum. It's worth the journey alone. I spent 3 days wandering its innards and could've spent a month in there. The space section alone is eye-popping.

                        Brisbane>Denver Return Β£835

                        pricey but you may be able to get it cheaper with a bit more scouting

                        As for accommodation I found a B&B on the university campus for $50 a night! Its no hilton but it will do for me maybe and its literally round the corner from google! also the best value in is $50 a night three star hotel has a pool lol

                            Well if Brisbane is your closest airport Β£835 is a pretty good price, I think the longer you stay the cheaper the flight but then you have to weigh it up against your accommodation, im sleeping in the airport on my last day lol!

                              The one closer, pointed by Solo, is "Golden Buff Lodge".
                              The "Inn" is farther down, (A).

                                      That is a good price but 46 hours in transit is a little steep!!!!

                                            I spent a night in New York. I tried to sleep in the bus terminal, but they kick everyone out if you don't have a valid ticket. So I literally wandered the streets near Broadway ALL NIGHT. It was quite pleasant. Plenty of food shops open all night long. I just hopped back and forth ordering sodas and hot dogs 😲

                                            And of your list of places, I would also recommend New York. I think Vegas might be more fun with friends. Chicago is a big city, but I think you should do New York over Chicago. It is quite a city!
