Best places to fly from Miami or Fort Lauderdale for Labor Day weekend

Labor Day is the last long weekend of summer and one of the cheaper holiday weekends to fly, because the crowds go to the beach by car. Three nights rewards a nonstop: a city or a beach you can reach by lunch on Friday, home by Monday evening. Fares peak on the Thursday and Friday before; a Saturday departure is the quiet one.
