The only meetings where my hotel costs exceeded my transporation costs
were the Montreal IETFs (I live in Ottawa).  When I've flown I have
seldom ever been on direct flights.

I *do* avoid the main hotel if the price is poor.  I did get the
Sheraton Wall (backup hotel IETF84), via hotwire.com, which surprised me.

I find staying over saturday night no longer has any affect on my travel
costs. 

I do prefer returning to the same places, and I do like Minneapolis.
(Yes, even in March and November)

I am more concerned that we have three north-american IETFs in a row
(Vancouver, Atlanta, Orlando), and 4 of the next 6 are in North America.
(Not counting Hawaii as North America for the purposes of travel
budgets, or it's be 5/7)

I'm also concerned about going popular places (Quebec, Orlando) during
peak tourist season.
