Yes, the August heat is miserable and sticky in Alabama. Might as well hide away in Las Vegas, and divide your time between an air-conditioned casino and the hotel swimming pool. Fly from Birmingham to Vegas for $232 round-trip, including all taxes, on Delta Air Lines.

This fare is valid for travel any day of the week, on a handful of dates beginning in late August, with a 330-day window of travel through spring 2013. Winter dates are an additional $10.
