West jet from Atlantic city seems to be the best! Though I never flew it many ppl told me it's pretty cheap or you can go porter air tiks are usually 300 with a travel agent from Lakewood even day of flight.

Use LAN kilometers.

  Westjet used to be the cheapest ( I flew for $72 roundtrip including taxes!!), but I checked their website recently and it looks like they stopped flying out of ACY, meaning they have no flights from the NY/NJ area!!

The fastest reported time is 7 days so unless the OP has or can buy LAN kms this wont help.

thanks all for your great help.  i did prefer not to drive but after my sister and her 6 kids decided that they wanted to go as well, we had no choice.  so we will rent a 15 passenger van and drive together.  See my post under trip/destination reports regarding my questions of where to stay on this trip.

 13 x $250 = Id rather Drive It,LoL

 theres even a bus that does the NY-Tor run that would make alot more sense then flying and is $118 per person or $1534 Something tells me hes got it 100% correct with renting a 15 passenegr van and driving it if saving $$ is Important, which it is to me. I dont think the rental , gas Hotels etc will come near $1534 yet alone $3250
