Best place to get flight, hotel and car rental tickets
Best place to get flight, hotel and car rental tickets?
My mom and I will be planning a trip at the end of August to fly from Indianapolis to LA, Cali. We plan to stay for 5 nights/6 days. I checked out orbits.com and the cheapest pkg deal I got was $1,222 (total for us both) which includes our flight (round trip), our hotel room which I chose the Hilton in LA airport since it was the cheapest and a car rental. Is that a good deal for us both? So it would be like $600 a piece. Ohh, really? I didn't know that! I will have to look that up now! Thank you for the info, by the way!

http://www.priceline.com worked wonders for me. By the way just so you know: There IS a difference between California and Cali.
2 :
A couple other sights that actually compare the results from the other sights and directs you to the sight with the best deal.

We understand that people on the east coast think it's "cute" to refer to California as "Cali". Cali is a drug city in Colombia, South America, and most Californians feel that comparing our state to that place is DISRESPECTFUL and INSULTING. We abbreviate our states name "Cal". I believe you can get better deals than that. Try looking at a few more travel consolidators like Travelosity, Expedia, etc. Consider that hotels near LAX mainly cater to business travelers who get reimbursed for expenses by their company so they can be pricier than hotels more inland. And since you're renting a car that shouldn't be a problem. May I suggest looking in the Downey, Lakewood, Cerritos, area. It's roughly mid way between the touristy places in L.A. and Disneyland, and a reasonably safe area. Enjoy your vacation. From LAX it is about 12 miles to the Hollywood area, 20 miles to downtown L.A., and 40 miles to Disneyland.

I read more problems or no help with problems when using priceline or hotwire, so I would not book with them. I do comparrisons when I travel using kayak, sidestop aol travel travelocity expedia.com I use to see huge differences by using the sites now it might only be a few dollars. If youd like help comparing you must list dates of travel. Mon tues wed is cheapest for flight and and hotels, at least having having it at the start of the trip helps or ending on one of those days. If your going to be there with a fri sat sun mon combo, then rent a car from enterprise, they do a half price deal for those days, and just return and rerent the car for the other days. It must have a check out check in fri and mon though.

Sufficient time for connecting flights in O'Hare
Sufficient time for connecting flights in O'Hare?
I will be travelling from Brussels to Indianapolis via Chicago O'Hare in October (on a Monday afternoon). I have about 2 hours to make my connecting flight in O'Hare, will that be enough?

1 :
It should be. But to be safe, if you can carry your luggage on-board, rather than check it, you will save about 20-30 minutes in getting your bag. And besides, most connecting flights out of O'Hare are delayed anyway.
2 :
That should be plenty of time (as always, assuming flilghts are on-time), but you might should find out the planned gates - arrival and departure - and check them against a web map of the airport. (If you get the chance to travel on the underground walkway, take it; It's a pleasant experience.)
3 :
O'Hare is the WORST commercial airport in the country. Flights stack up forever waiting to land, and weather conditions are always causing problems, at any time of the year. Given that your connecting flight will probably be delayed an hour or two, two hours may be enough, but I'd prefer 3-4 hours to be safe.
4 :
I would say your chances are good, probably 80% or better. However, if you do miss it, the airline will put you on another flight. In the absolute worst case scenario, it is not too far of a drive from Chicago to Indianapolis - 3-4 hours, depending on traffic.
5 :
2 hours is plenty. I've connected there with 30 minutes. Unless there is some giant blizzard or some unforseen weather, you should be fine.
6 :
2 hours should be enough. You'll be going from the International Terminal to the Domestic, so that will take up your most time. I imaging the flight from ORD to Indy should last less than an hour as it only takes about 3-4 hours to drive there!
7 :
It depends on how long the lines in customs are. I would say 2 hours may be a little tight. If you fly United to Indianapolis, then you would have to go from Terminal 5 to Terminal 1. If American, then you would fly out of Terminal 3. Plus you would have to re-check any luggage and then go through security again.

what are the circle things you see from airplanes
what are the circle things you see from airplanes?
I Just got back from New Mexico tonight and I had 4 flights. 1 from indianapolis to Denver then from Denver to Alb. Then on the way back from Alb. to Denver and from Denver back to Indianapolis. When I could see the ground from way up in the plan I saw lots of circles that looked like farm fields but Im not sure what they are. I can tell they are very big and vary in color. Does any one know what they are? And if they are farm fields witch is what I think they look like....why farm in a circle? http://mycardsforthecure.com/db1/00059/mycardsforthecure.com/_uimages/circles_fields.jpg Here is a pic Thank you all very much, I have been trying to guess what they are all week and no one could tell me. Thank you =) now I know.

First off they're not circles, they're more like ovals, duh
2 :
It's the result of an irrigation method there are long pipes on wheels which act as sprinklers. One end is fixed and the other is movable creating a circle as the free end travels. Sometimes, you'll see half circles or other portions of a circle.
3 :
The circles are areas where the land has been watered by an irrigation system (sprinklers) which are attached to the ground at the center and rotate around (usually on wheels). Usually found in arid parts of the world such as the States of Arizona, Nebraska, Colorado, etc. they will vary in color based on time of year, crop, and type of land. The irrigation systems are also called "center pivot irrigation". Some farmers have used the systems to form geometric patterns when viewed from above. These are called "crop circles".
4 :
You are correct that what you saw were farm fields. In places where water is more scarce, fields must often be watered so that crops can grow. It's not uncommon for waters to be delivered by a sprinkler that pivots in the center, meaning that it goes in a circle around a point in the center of the field. (The type of irrigation, in fact, is called "center pivot irrigation.") In other words, the field is circular because the water is delivered to the crops in that fashion.
