With fuel costs on the rise and airlines charging extra for everything (really JetBlue, pillows?) it is becoming harder and harder to afford a getaway. In you are in NY, Boston, or DC you might consider the BoltBus. With fares starting at a buck each way and topping out at around $24 you can get from NY to DC for the weekend without breaking the bank. The word is the seats are comfortable and you get free wifi. Neat. M&I have been talking about going to DC for a while now maybe this is just the incentive we need. via
