Trying to book a flight from Honolulu to Chicago on a budget during peak season is as fun as getting your teeth pulled.

But we did it...with the lowest airfare possible. Still, you don't want know how much we paid. We were able to avoid big $$$ just by flying into Chicago Midway instead of O'Hare.

We fly in at 5:30AM in the morning at check-in isn't till 3PM. We'll be starting our shopping early!

I'm glad that's all over....now WE WAIT!
