If you happen to be a skier, there are some great airfares from Cleveland to Denver starting about January 9. I picked a random Friday to Monday and came up with 169.00 round trip on United. Non stop flights even.
There are also some good fares from NYC to the West Coast beginning in January as well. Looks like most travel must be completed by mid March.

NYC....Hurricane Sandy updates
Thanks Dawn for the link.
People, this is NOT your average storm. Ignore Lindsay Lohan and take cover. Get your gas, get your batteries, stock up on water, non-perishable food and alcohol. Boxed wine is highly recommended. Click the link below for up to the minute NYC information.
Hawaii-tsunami warning lifted
A tsunami warning that spurred coastal evacuations throughout Hawaii was downgraded to a tsunami advisory, ending the threat of serious damage, the state's governor said early on Sunday.
At least 100,000 people were ordered to move from the shoreline to higher ground late on Saturday after the tsunami warning, but the first waves were less forceful than had been feared and no damage was initially reported.
The tsunami, triggered by a powerful earthquake off Canada's Pacific coast, began shortly after 10:30 p.m. Hawaii time (4:30 a.m. ET), according to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, as motorists clogged roadways in a mass exodus from low-lying areas.
