    Americans don't like people who are cheap. If you begrudge paying the proper fare for a ride to the greatest country on earth, I suggest you save your money and go someplace like France.

    ive been to both usa and france,i think usa was far cheaper than france,and much better value for money.

    anyway OP use skyscanner.net for flights if you havent already.

    I paid £360 including all taxes and surcharges for a BA flight to San Francisco in June. I thought this was quite reasonable. Chicago is nearer so should be cheaper.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.

    There may well be promotions in May/June - for flights later in the year. Book now.
