Just learned that flying out of smaller airports can save $150+ per ticket

I was looking at flights to Nashville next month and noticed that flying from my local airport instead of the big international one an hour away was actually $165 cheaper per person. Airfarewatchdog had an article about this where they compared 20 routes and found smaller airports averaged 30% less in fares. Anyone else found deals flying out of regional airports instead of the big hubs?

Honestly yeah, I saved like $200 flying out of a smaller airport near me for a trip to Chicago last year. Totally worth the extra 15 minute drive to get there.
