ewr to ind 314
ewr to mco 1537 from cal 750 from jet blue
ewr to alt 744 for cal 1754 from delta 685 from airtran

If first went to indy then unless you drove you are not going to champs. I have been working in the airline industry for 8 year now there are not enough seats.
These numbers only reflect non-stop flights. We host many conventions several times larger than FIRST every year. We just had 50,000 FFA kids in town.
