championship reservations

Did any other travel coordinators or main contacts get this message from FRC.

I have checked and I do not have any such message they are referring to.

Here is the message:

Greetings Main Contacts:

An e-mail was recently sent to all Travel Contacts regarding the
Championship Reservation Process. If you are registered to attend the Championship it is especially important you check with your Travel Contact to make sure he/she received this important e-mail!

Thank you.

Anyone have information?

strange email

I am the main contact AND travel contact for team 341. I only received the main contact email. I have no travel info as yet. Probably an error.

HOUSTON HOTEL INFO NOW AVAILABLE..Yes, they sent it...embedded in Dec. 5 announcement

Hi Mike,

Go to your Dec 5 announcement from FIRST, 2nd paragraph, fourth line down
"target date is Dec. 23"

Easy to miss, I guess.
Anyway, RESERVATIONS CAN BE MADE ON DECEMBER 26

The prices are WAY higher than I dreamed they'd be........
They are charging per person for the rooms, instead of just for the room.

3 night stays range from $160 to $239 per person
based on 4 per room
4 night stays range from $180 to $286 per person
based on 4 per room.

Includes breakfast coupons, lunch coupons, and 2 day Six Flag tickets, shuttle service to and from Reliant Park.

hotel pricing info

To: skrussel

I can not find the price information that you are quoting.

I checked the 12/5 email and the FIRST site and found no links. I also went to the meeting company site and found nothing.

Can you direct me on how to access this info. Thanks for your help! Best of luck this season!

You can disregard that last request. I just got the email blast this morning. Apparently they missed some teams. Thanks anyway.

Was an e-mail sent out? If so, what did it say? Our team's travel contact is on vacation right now and I would really love to get the information before he gets back.

here is the link for the hotel rates

http://www.meetingcompany.com/firstc/

you can at least see what is available and shop around. Your travel coordinator needs to make the arrangements.

The prices are pretty good. It will cost my team about $250 less per student this trip than for last year's trip to Fla.

Thanks for the information. I don't know if this information has been given or not, but I have two questions. First, is transportation to and from the airport included? and second, is dinner on Saturday night included?

It looks like transport to and from airport is up to the teams. Since each one has different arrangements it would be hard to get something central set up but maybe FIRST has a carrier arranged. No announcement yet.

Many of the hotels offer the service but at a fee. The Reliant Park is at the opposite side of Houston from the main airport- about 25 miles.

Just a quick question..... what about people who will not be staying at one of the 'package' hotels..... will passes still be available to attend the team social?

Weedie,
The current word is no. No package, no party. No options.
Maybe they will back down when they realize that about half of the teams can't afford their VERY affordable overpriced packages.
