F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

OK, thanks for the perspective. Now I just need to do some thinking.

Is that including taxes, or non-stop (or at least, easy/nice stops, if that's easier)? It's probably a decent fare, if it includes taxes.

You might want to take a look at Farecast--it predicts airfares. (for example, Farecast is saying that for a trip on Fri-Sun of the F2F weekend, currently it costs $302 to fly BWI-SEA, but if you'd booked it a few days ago it would've been $245, so best to wait a few days because it will likely go back down)

Ooh, thanks, meara. Yeah, that includes taxes and is from BWI. I will check out that site.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I found out today I might not have a job come Monday. With the number of people being let go my chances aren't awful but I'ma hold off making f2f plans until I know for sure.

Newbie f2f question. I'll be filing out the time off request, and wondering when best to arrive/depart to enjoy the festivities? 3 days are listed. Is first/last trickle in/out of folks? Or are all 3 days filled with folks? Or is this a totally nutri question whose answer is "depends"?

Omnis, most people arrive sometime on Friday and leave Sunday afternoon/evening.

Omnis, as an example, I'll be getting in Thursday near midnight (which means I eat a night at the hotel for a couple of hours of sleep, but whatever) and I'll be leaving almost as late Sunday night (which means I'll be keeping busy after checkout time).

Seriously - the hotel isn't even 100% set at this point.
