No, I'm in Suisun - the completely opposite direction. But thank you!
I can transfer from Amtrak to BART in Richmond, but the existence of a Berkeley Amtrak station always makes me think I should be able to use it, but it's not near anywhere I want to be.
Oh yeah, I was going to say, if it's "Leave Sunday night, arrive Mon morning, take off work Monday and sleep in the morning" vs "leave Monday morning, arrive Monday evening", then save the $100. If it's, stay an extra day to save $100 but have to work after a redeye, then...less of a good plan.
Yeah, I went with the redeye option for Sunday. Saving $100 is just too much for me with my current job situation to turn down. But I had to fly out of Milwaukee to get it. Still, even with paying for parking for three days, the savings were too good to turn down.
Are you on AirTran? We're probably on the same flight.
I'm booked on Jet Blue into Oakland, then Juliana and I are flying from SF to Seattle.
Check your e-mail, brenda. Heh.
Hah, both ways. See you bright and early in Milwaukee!
Damn, Southwest has really cheap flights from Oakland.
Is anyone coming in on Thursday? I want to come early an extra day to see non-Buffistas, but I don't know what the deal with the hotel is, if A) the Buffista rate will hold on Thursday night and B) if there will be people to split a room with. I am seeing if anyone I know has crash space.
Although, damn, it really is tempting to stay for Jilli's book release, although, again, lodging would be an issue. I could take a 6am flight Wednesday morning and still make it into work.
The Buffistas rate will be in force on Thursday and Sunday, we cleared that with the hotel. Dunno about splitting with folks, that I can't promise.
