It's not even December yet...I know New Years is a busy time.  BUT, the BEST deals on flights are usually 3 weeks before you want to leave on a TUESDAY.  My mother is a travel agent and knows that Airlines put up sales on Tuesdays. 

Never failed me before...

Also, think about flying into Midland/Odessa which is about a 3 1/2 hour drive away from El Paso.  Southwest flies there too...

Use websites like www.kayak.com and www.sidestep.com

THESE WEBSITE ARE USUALLY THE BEST FOR FINDING THE BEST RATES.

Also, remember that Southwest also flies into Dallas, Austin and San Antonio for very cheap and you could rent a car and drive the rest of the way to el paso.

DON'T LET MONEY HOLD YOU BACK FROM SEEING OUR BULLS!!!

There are crafty ways of getting around Travel woes...

Carpooling SAVES BUNDLES and makes "Long Drives" feel shorter.

STAMPEDE EL PASO...if we get it.  lol  ;)

GO BULLS!!!

Um, Dallas and San Antonio are well over 500 miles from El Paso. Dallas is over 600 miles.

Just nut up and fly into El Paso. Skip the rental car and get a room close to the stadium.

Are you renting or do you own?  I'm trying to get a group of 7 together to rent from cruiseamerica...looks to run roughly $500 per person for the entire trip, including all food, ticket, and misc costs.

6 of us (3 couple) are also looking into the Motorhome  as a way to keep the costs in line.
