Re: How do teams normally make travel arrangements?

From New Jersey to Ohio, taking a bus will almost assuredly be cheaper. Flying from New York to Cleveland is very expensive.Use online travel services to find hotels that are convenient to the regional site and compare their prices. Call each of them and ask if they have any discounts available for groups, as well, as you'll likely need 12 or 13 rooms. Also, remember to call the hotels directly -- not any toll-free reservation lines. You'll usually be much better off for talking a hotel's manager directly than to some agent three thousand miles away.

If one hotel gives a better price than the other, call back and forth and see if they'll give you a better offer.
