Voice of Travelers to Abilene

Airfare ticket to Abilene from Las Vegas and back

As I was invited to conference to Abilene last year, I started looking for a cheap flight ticket. I found an option of a flight with a flight ticket to Dallas and then another ticket to Abilene, both with American Eagle airlines. The ticket was quite expensive but unfortunately I did not find a better flight ticket as I started looking kind of late. This ticket was issued through a ticket portal. I found Abilene to be a charming city and I am thinking to look for a return ticket to Abilene just before Christmas time. I know the ticket to Abilene will be more expensive yet. That is why I need to start searching for the ticket to Abilene well ahead of time.

Visiting Abilene on a return ticket from Dallas

I have already visited Abilene several times as my friends live there. I always fly to Abilene with a ticket on a direct flight from Dallas with American Eagle who give great service aboard, very much worth the ticket price. While I get a ticket for economy class, at times I get an upgrade to the business class which is excellent. What is more, I always get a discount when I purchase my ticket through their online ticket portal. Last time I booked my ticket very late, the night before my flight, so the ticket turned out to be more expensive, but I needed to go to Abilene urgently. The ticket was worth it, anyway.
