southwest probably has the cheapest flights... It depends on where you live.

try cheap tickets.com thats where i went and then I booked on the airlines actual web site. We flew from Portland, Or to Chicago O'hare for $158 a ticket. Try to book afew weeks in advance you'll get better prices. Also I got a better hotel deal by calling the hotel it self. not the 1800 # the 1800 # said it would $89 a night and the hotel said $69 big difference.

Try travelocity.com. That's what I use for all of my flights I take. You can pay by credit card and then they give you an e-ticket which is great because all you have to do when you get to the airport is put your credit card in the machine and it will automatically print out your boarding passes for you. You can also try expedia.com :)

I use them to get my price ideas and then I go through the airline and save 10-30 a person

Southwest would be the cheapest. They do not fly out of Charlotte.
They do fly from Raliegh/Durham. It should be around 150.00 a ticket. We fly from Chicago/Midway to Raliegh and then drive to Lexington NC to visit friends. I live close to Midway let me know if I can be of any help.
