Yeah, all it took was one very short search to figure out that Spirit is big big trouble.

Otherwise I would be driving to the CanJam!
Well, unless you plan on being a college student forever, it shouldn't be a problem too much longer

The rules are that you can bring one or more. Once the sign ups are ready to go, you will be able to purchase an admission for you and whatever number of guests want to attend.

Flights have been booked, requiring jumping through several hoops but it's definitely going to be worth it.

Jetblue is pricey.
And you have to do red eyes from hell to get direct flights. 
Although I imagine Long Beach, CA Airport (LGB) would be easier to deal with than LAX.
Looks like American Airlines is going to be the winner.

Woo-Hoo X 2!! This meet isn't that far off now, and it is going to be epic! I think Pete owes me a beer, or vice-versa, so I am sure I will contribute to that hang-over either way. I am leaving on Monday so as to delay the hang-over to the greatest extent...

I booked a flight with American Airlines.
They have a measly 5% off coupon, but it's a discount either way.
A1418SS <--Promotional Code.
Arriving FLL May 02, 2008 02:50 PM
Departing FLL May 05, 2008 02:10 PM
Anyone else flying in and/or out from the airport around these times? Maybe we could share a cab or maybe someone can swing by to pick up a few of us at once?
Iron_Dreamer is trying to book the same flight as well, we're going to fly out from LAX.

Yeck, no Ouzo for me, I can't stand the nasty liquorice stuff. I'm strictly a beer kind of guy (perfect for hanging with the Florida crew, eh?). The only hard stuff I'll do is tequila shots, and it has to be the good stuff.

Yep, I'm flying co-pilot with Ed for one music-fueled cross-country jaunt! Time to blow off some of that steam!
And I find it interesting that my name was already somehow on the attendees list. Florida subterfuge at it's best!

I wonder who put your name up there. Remind me as it gets closer and I will try to get you guys. Otherwise, it's about 5 miles to the hotel so the cab fare shouldn't be too bad. There is a hotel shuttle for the trip back to the airport.

Can-Jam is practically in my backyard so I plan to make one (maybe two) day trips for a look-see.
