How much does a flight from Sandusky to Cuyahoga Falls cost?

ouriel@sanduskyregister.comAlmost everyone hates flying.The whole experience might be worse than getting melted M&M's stuck inside a car's dash, ruining the resale value.So why would someone bother with the expense, time and inconvenience of traveling on a commercial flight to a city roughly 80 miles away?Just ask Michelle, the love interest of "Tommy Boy" protagonist Tommy Callahan.Michelle, whose parents live in Cuyahoga Falls, wants to travel there after getting in a tiff with Tommy.Rather than driving there, which would take 90 or so minutes on a good day, Michelle opts to fly.When visiting the "Sandusky Municipal Airport," an airline attendant informs her the only available flight involves a connection through Columbus.Huh?Yes, Michelle, would need to fly to two centrally located Ohio cities: first from Sandusky to Columbus and then Columbus to Cuyahoga Falls to arrive at her final destination.Who in their right mind would purchase a round trip airline ticket for such a roundabout trip?Just chalk it up to the magic of cinema storytelling.Michelle ended up not buying the ticket after spotting the film's two antagonists plotting against Callahan.It was probably a good decision on her part, considering the 80-mile trip would have turned into a 246-mile flight.To think about it in a different way: Without stopping, she could probably drive from Sandusky to Cuyahoga Falls in the time it would take to watch "Tommy Boy" from start to finish.Register map / NICK DAVIS PARAMOUNT PICTURES / Michelle (Julie Warner) at the "Sandusky Municipal Airport" trying to buy an airline ticket. The route she almost bought a ticket for would have taken her from Sandusky to Columbus and then Cuyahoga Falls.
