On December 18, 2008, USA3000 will resume service from Milwaukee's General Mitchell International Airport to Ft. Myer's Southwest Florida International Airport.  Service will be 6 times weekly and as always, USA3000 offers only nonstop flights.  Grab some seats while they're incredibly cheap for winter travel away from the cold!  At only $80 each way (plus tax and fees) it's a steal.  Fares can be bought one way!  Book on the USA3000 website and be sure to check the "flexible traveler" option to see the lowest fares.    We were able to find some scarce seats from Milwaukee to Cancun as well. Those fares, starting at $249 each way plus tax/fees aren't quite so reasonable but may change so keep checking their site.  In any event, they're nonstops as well and may help get you to sun and fun without any flight connections.  We'd expect that down the line, the possibility of other destinations from the Milwaukee gateway may pop up as well.

One other note, while we're at it - for USA3000's service from Chicago to St. Pete/Clearwater, Florida, also commencing on December 18, if you put the word "CHANGES" in the promo box on their website, you'll get an extra $5 off the already low $95 fare in each direction (January onward.)
