Airfare for DSM to NYC on 6/30 to 7/7

[cgcozad]

I have used priceline to book a few hotels but a little nervous about booking airfare. Any flights typically out of Des Moines are expensive due to our smaller size. But wondering what I should consider a good price to take the risk of a longer/connecting flight and bidding versus purchasing directly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

CGC

Sorry, I should have included that in the previous post. I would love to find something in the $200 range with all fees. The trip is for two people. We have played around with the idea of driving to Kansas City and flying out of MCI, which we may do because I have found decent rates but we would have to drive 3 hours and then use longterm parking. We would like to leave early in the morning on June 30th and leave late on July 7th, which is probably why I am a little hesitant on "naming my price". But if it was a good enough deal...

What is the best deal you're currently able to find out of DSM and what is the breakdown of fare vs. fees and taxes?
