For those planning on attending, I was able to get dirt cheap non-stop airfare directly into Trenton, NJ. My wife and I round trip from Florida, $115 total inclusive of taxes and fees. Frontier flies directly into TTN. I learned that if you buy tickets at the airport counter, Frontier doesn't charge you the "Carrier Interface Charge" - which for me was literally half the cost of the ticket if I were to buy it from flyfrontier.com.
I confirmed with the Frontier clerk at the airport that they don't charge that fee on any tickets purchased in person. She said very few people know this. Basically take the rate from their website, click into the drill down of fees, and subtract the CIC fee - that's what you'd pay at the airport.
I was also told Spirit is similar - if you buy at the airport they wave their "passenger usage fee".
If this post saves you some money, you can buy me a beer at graduation or bring me a cigar.
