And technically these airlines are charging $15 for each way so that's $30 for a round-trip which just plain sucks! It's one bag! $30 to take one bag for a round-trip flight!

Yeah its a rip off, yeah its a bummer, and yeah it is lining up to be a very good meet. Do you want to miss that? Pack you headphones, a toothbrush and come. It always good to see you at meets.

And damn, right now I could go round trip, non-stop for $240. Too bad there's no way I can make the meet, let's hope fares are that low for CJ '09.

Jesus I just checked out rates flying out of Manch, that's cheap as hell. I always paid around $600 round trip flying into LAX in the peak seasons

edit: never mind I don't think those prices include gas tax, airport tax and whatever other shit they hit you with.

columbus is a long ways away from cincinnati.

[909]

alrighty then mr. wkrp!

this morning the few cincinnati fares were about $150 more, but now i suspect it has doubled.

[EdipisReks]

yeah, i've never figured out why Cinci fairs are so fucking expensive. it's some dumb shit.

It's because Cincinnati is Delta Hub.

[EdipisReks]

so? atlanta is a delta hub, and it's not shit tons more expensive than anywhere else (or, at least, it wasn't 10 years ago, while cincinnati was, 10 years ago).

[Edwood]

That's because Atlanta sucks more than Cincinnati. Which is quite an accomplishment.

i sent some emails out earlier today with ticket purchase info...

guzziguy already bought two tickets! the rest of you slackers need to following his exceptional lead

only 18 more tix to go....

[909]

[Augsburger]

I plan on scalping my ticket the day of the meet to help pay for some more gear.

[909]

[EdipisReks]

i'm going to pt a 25% deposit down on a ticket, then ask for my deposit back, then buy a ticket from Rudistor, which make crackling noises followed by a dramatic reduction in volume.

[Voltron]

[909]

5 tix sold -- 15 to go...
