Vette(s): had a really nice one. sold it to a good friend. Purchased 2004 custom coupe in Feb. 2009 did not tell anyone here until August 2009. BAD I KNOW.

looking into the wife having to fly over to TN. to meet up with me and ride back to washington, looking for anyone who would know the closest largest airport that she could fly into from seatac international.  any help would be nice.

the ones listed on the hotel site are close but not sure how large to get a better price, looking like her flying is going to cost more than gas!!!!!

Thanks family

Larry

Smart move, my wife flew into Vegas when I drove down there last summer. Worked really good for both of us.  But...........I can't imagine anything being more expensive then driving a 70's Corvette across the US cilrah38739.7388078704

Charlotte may be the closest big airport, but on the wrong side of the mountains.
What about picking her up in St. Louis or Nashville?

I would pick Knoxville.  Right now it looks like a cost anywhere from $300 to $600usd for one way.  Alaska and then USAirways are your best low cost ones for her.   But both are transfers or long waits.

I checked the American Express Sky Guide this morning. Knoxville is the closest airport with connections. The Holiday Inn map says it is 35 miles from Pigeon Forge. 

Knoxville has connections to the following cities:

Allentown-PA, Atlanta, Auston-TX, Brownsville-TX, Charlotte-NC, Chicago, Cincinatti, Cleveland, Dallas, Des Moines, Detroit, Hartford-CT, Houston, Ithaca-NY, Jackson-MS, Jacksonville-NC, Lubbock-TX, Memphis, Minneapolis, New York (Weshchester, Newark), Norfolk-VA,Orlando, Philadelphia, Tampa, Washington-DC, Baltimore-MD. Wichita.

I travel a lot so I usually look at the cities that you can connect to and try fair pairings to see what works. 

Hope this helps.
