You can reach most major cities within a ~2.5 to 3 hour flight from KC though, so your options really aren't all that limited if you have a few days to kill.
I'd personally say no to the Ozarks unless you're planning on camping or love boating, but haven't really spent a ton of time there to say what else is there, either.

Chicago would be cool. Will definitely consider going for a day or two. If I recall correctly the cheapest intercity flight from KC is to Chicago.

Intriguing.

Hm that's good to know. I asked the guy if resell/swapping tickets is an option and he said it can be, but the answer wasn't exactly clear. What's the situation with reselling or moving seats? And do you think other methods of sourcing tickets are better and do prices vary depending on the source? i.e. stubhub, seatgeek and the like. Really my main concern is missing out on a good seat.
