It's 128 miles from Lexington to Huntington, on a major freeway, about 2 hours.

I have flown into Charleston numerous times from Dallas. Easy flight with a short stop in Cincinnati but I admit it has been a few years.

Take Southwest to Columbus

If it's jet service, then Mestengo that looks pretty good.

hate layovers. One of the reasons I moved back to Dallas from the valley.

We'll see what the travel time looks like though.

Cinci is about 3 hours to Huntington if you fly in here. Of course, it can be a bit expensive at our dear airport.

Exactly...regional carriers who fly their overworked pilots too much,dont pay their pilots much money, dont spend anything on maintenance and flying in wintry weather...hmmmm , but if Stangs keep winning I will take that chance

Mestengo was right. Check out Travelocity to Charleston, some of the layovers are less than an hour. Price is pretty good too, then you only have a 55 minute drive to Huntington!

I always buy from SMU for away trips to be in the SMU section. Away visitor tickets will be returned by SMU the Tuesday before the game. If you want tickets, go by the box office or call Bethany and she will mail them to you.
