Airfare: LAX to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., for $240 on Virgin America
Airfares to some parts of Florida this high season have climbed well above $500, so here’s a bargain round-trip fare from LAX to Fort Lauderdale on Virgin America for $240, including all taxes and fees.
Fort Lauderdale’s reputation as a spring-break city for college students dates to 1935, when collegiate swimmers trained there to stay in shape during the Christmas break. Word spread about the town and soon college students were coming to do more than just swim. The crowds that grew unruly in the 1980s, however, are a thing of the past, thanks to stricter laws and code enforcement.
The fare to Fort Lauderdale, which is about 25 miles from Miami, is subject to availability, and you must purchase at least seven days in advance. There is no minimum stay, and you may travel any day of the week through May 21.
Info: Virgin America, (877) 359-8474.
