So my vacation of a lifetime is currently going to pot. All the flights in the Chicago airspace were grounded today. We are booked on flights tomorrow, but I'm trying to figure out what the heck to do if we don't get there.
My plan is to just get my butt to Mexico and make it all better. It's the down season right? There has to be a boat where someone will take me out diving, is the theory.
So anyhow- I will fly out of anything within a 10 hour drive of Iowa City. The flight would be on Sunday.
Right now, Kansas City is looking to be my best bet.
I've checked: Dallas, Houston, (yeah, those are out of the drive range, but I have family there I could drop in on), Minneapolis, Dubuque, Des Moines, Omaha, Detroit.
Those airports are either way too expensive or only have a connection that would get us there the next day.
Does anyone have any recommendations on other airports we should check?
