Just for everyone's FYI, the airfares are way down from last year. Last year I paid $280 round-trip from San Jose CA, this year I can get a round-trip, non-stop for $151 and change! That's a big drop in airfare. I didn't check other except Oakland CA and it was about the same, just a few $$ cheaper than San Jose.
