omg cheap airfare

So, I definitely recommend using www.studentuniverse.com for any students or teachers who want to get some cheaper airfare. I looked up a one way ticket to Tokyo (Narita Airport) from Seattle (Seatac Airport) and it was only like $502.37, WITH taxes and fees. After seeing what the estimated price was that OUS (Oregon University System) gave us (about $1,600.00 round trip), I'd say that's a pretty damn good price. If my ticket back is that much, that means I'm saving like 500-600 dollars right there, freaking crazy.

Also, I was looking at a more domestic flight (from Illinois to Seattle) and it was like $50+ cheaper than I could find using orbitz or cheaptickets. I recommendrecommenrecommend it! Just remember, you have to be a student (or faculty member, I think) to use it.

I am getting very pumped about going, but very nervous about trying to pack my life for a year into two checked and one carry-on. Eek.
