Beth,
Consider several things other than plane fairs.  These include the climate, 
the type of travel and the size of the center; I heard one is smaller. 
Plane fairs fluctuate from season to season and with different airlines so 
this is one small factor.
Yes you have to decide quickly but they can't deny you; they have to pay 
because its your right to choose the service provider you want.
I have not been to an nfb center but I support anyone's choice to go.
