Ran,
The prices you found are better than the ones I found for Portland. That
may be because I'm flying out of John Wayne. It's cheaper to fly out of
LAX, but it's a pain for all parties involved.
Hopefully someone here will know something better. I haven't booked my
flight yet either, but probably should.
