David,



If you're a student and have a student body card you qualify for TWA's youth

pack which includes 4 one-way trips anywhere in the US. As I recall the

Youth Pack was under $500 several years back.



Teran used his Lance Armstrong grants this way which meant that he could go

to more races than he would have been had he used standard fares, BUT he did

have to pay for his bikes and ground costs which he was able to arrange

through the local reps at a cost (including food!!! and transportation--the

kindness of strangers!) of about $15 per day.



The vouchers are good for one year so although you'll be paying up front,

you'll have another ticket anywhere standing by.



Bonnie

Hi everyone,

      In a little over a week I am planning on going to U-23/Junior

Nationals in Florida, and I have yet to purchase my ticket. Does anyone have

good tips/advice on getting a cheap airplane ticket? How good are priceline

and the other internet ticket agencies?

      Also, does anyone know of any cyclist in the Gainesville Florida area

that might be interested in hosting a racer for a few days? The USCF is not

providing host housing for nationals, instead they have a host hotel for the

convenient price of around $100 a night.



     Thanks in advance for any suggestions and advice!!
