Only reason I'm saying is because you can often get a flight to a nearby city for much cheaper than your destination. Also, are you flying direct, or having stop-overs, because that will also affect your pricing. One nice thing about airlines is that you can often buy a ticket that doesn't ensure you a seat (most of the time seats are available) that will get you there for a lot less, but I can't remember the term used for those seats.
Also, your girlfriend can just call you and you can let her in, or you can arrange for a key to be left for her at the reception desk of the hotel. No, you don't need to pay for a second person. Hotels are based on a per-room basis, not per-person.
Edit: I forgot to mention that the day you leave/return will also impact the cost of your flight. If you choose to leave or return on a weekend day, it will cost substantially more than if you were to leave and return on a weekday.
2nd Edit: I know busing sucks and that it's slow, but you can take a bus from Pittsburgh to Montreal for $170 round trip if you book a week ahead of time. Yeah, that's a long bus ride, but its also cheaper than any flight.
