Thanks for the help--Travelocity is a good source for airports (I should've checked before posting that part of ?).

Sounds like Mississippi might be a better destination due to:

1) less expensive flights
2) easier access from airport (only 30 miles, no east coast traffic to worry about)
3) 2 venues 10 miles apart with action

Looking forward to checking out a new casino and seeing the buzz around a major event.
