$370 to $450 seems to be the going rate in the DC Area (IAD, DCA, BWI, and RIC).

The nice thing is to live within 1 hr 15 min of all of them.

Of course depending on what day you depart, etc... cost will change RADICALLY. United has a direct flight out of IAD that runs $100 to $150 more that rarely goes on sale.

Spirit has been running specials out of BWI thru FLL to STT for $284, but it is my understanding they charge for everything so it works out to be close to the same price.

I did look at Kayak, and man you are right about the prices out of Huntsville. The Rocket Boys should be treated better than that!

I would look for routes via ATL or CLT to escape the DFW insanity.
