<p>My D finally got all her admissions decisions and we are trying to schedule visits. It works out best for us to visit CMU this coming weekend. But the last-minute airfares are expensive. So far the lowest price I've found is on AirTran. Is anyone else looking for the same thing or anyone know of websites with good prices on last-minute flights. Thanks.</p>
<p>cmu took care of mine. they used carlson wagonlit and the invoice says $200, hope that helps</p>
<p>Suggest using kayak.com. You can use the weekend search feature and modify the departing and returning dates. Searches multiple airlines.</p>
<p>Thanks for the tips. I tried kayak but without the weekend feature so I will look for that. I will search for carlson wagonlit also.</p>
<p>Kayak and farecast are good. Also southwest and jet blue fly into Pittsburgh but probably won’t show up on kayak or farecast.</p>
<p>The Airport Flyer bus from the airport to CMU is great and cheap.</p>
<p>I think this Carnival Weekend. Maybe next?</p>
<p>It is April 16 to 18.</p>
<p>alexhernandez, you mean CMU covered your airfare? Is it as easy as calling and asking?</p>
<p>yea they did. When I registered for one of their programs there was a box that said “travel assistance”. I checked it and then the agency called me the next day</p>
