Catching one of the Stanley Cup Final games at the Lenovo Center would be an expensive outing, with tickets alone<\/a> costing more than $900 each.<\/p>\n

Some Carolina Hurricanes fans<\/a> may be considering traveling to Las Vegas as an alternative.<\/p>\n

But that option comes with a hefty price tag, too.<\/p>\n

The News & Observer made an effort to calculate how much a Canes fan could expect to pay to travel to Las Vegas and back to catch Game 3 against the Golden Knights<\/a> at the T-Mobile Arena.<\/p>\n

Prices of flights, game tickets and hotels are subject to change, though.<\/p>\n

Scheduling two one-way flights offers greater flexibility across airlines \u2014 and potentially lower prices.<\/p>\n

There are a few flights out of Raleigh-Durham International Airport<\/a> on Saturday that land in time to catch Game 3, scheduled for 5 p.m. Pacific Time.<\/p>\n

One Frontier flight that leaves RDU at 6:15 a.m., stops in Atlanta and arrives in Vegas at 12:53 p.m. costs $265. It\u2019s $15 cheaper for Discount Den members. But those prices reflect the cheapest ticket options, which don\u2019t include a carry-on bag.<\/p>\n

Coming home could pose bigger problems, and travelers looking to save on flights may have to sacrifice convenience.<\/p>\n

The cheapest options have overnight layovers. For example, a Breeze<\/a> flight that leaves Vegas at 10:01 p.m. Sunday doesn\u2019t arrive in Raleigh until 9:03 a.m. Monday. The \u201cNo Flex Fare\u201d ticket costs $303.<\/p>\n

There are a few flight options that leave early Sunday, around 6 a.m. or 6:30 a.m., have one stop and arrive at RDU between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. Sunday. Those cost around $530.<\/p>\n

For example, there\u2019s a Southwest flight that leaves Vegas at 6 a.m., stops in Denver and arrives at RDU at 3:25 p.m. A choice ticket, the cheapest option available as of Tuesday afternoon, costs $531.<\/p>\n

So, before fees and taxes, flights could cost between $570 and $800.<\/p>\n

Travelers would likely want to spend the night in Vegas Saturday night before heading home.<\/p>\n

A one-night stay at the Excalibur, just a short walk from the arena, starts at $93.<\/p>\n

Tickets to Game 3 went on sale Tuesday. As of Wednesday morning, a fan could buy a ticket<\/a> for about $700, excluding taxes, for a seat in the upper level.<\/p>\n

Selecting the lowest-cost options for flights, hotels and a game ticket, one person could expect to spend at least $1,363 for a trip to Las Vegas to catch Game 3.<\/p>\n

That price doesn\u2019t include food or in-town transportation costs, such as travel to and from the airport.<\/p>\n
