Got a few buddies that do it. 2:45 from downtown. A lot of decent crew rates for the hotels on JFK Boulevard. I say decent at 55.00 with taxes. CLT I paid 42 out the door. Plus a good hangout next door. Hoot County Saloon, The Greek Place and a good Asian massage parlor!! Haha. Just kidding, wouldn't know anything about the last one. (Roll eyes) Red Roof Inn, JFK Blvd., Best Western, JFK., Springhill Suites, JFK. The rate changes for capacity. If you set-up an early reservation they hold the price. Now I used these hotels back last summer. Things might have changed.
