Wow! Is that a direct flight or are there stops on the way? For some reason I have always found Seattle to be in the same boat as Minneapolis/St Paul with few good fares into or out of, and I am not sure why. Maybe it's the whole Northworst Airlines thing. So I'll ask all you Ecotopians (OR, WA and BC) has this changed, or are the airlines still taking advantage of you all? Maybe it's just the "getting there from Boston thing. I dunno.
