So how are you getting to Atlanta?

[dez250]

I'm flying down, randomly, we all promise it wasn't planned, that I'm on the same plane Cory is on which is the same plane Rage [173] is on from Chicago -> Atlanta... That will be interesting.

Alright I'll post mine now. I'm going to be driving down to Atlanta via I-95 (along with a bunch of the team's supplies!) on Sunday or Monday, and will be stopping at Washington DC for a day or two to do some touristing. The cherry blossoms should still be in bloom, and the Smithsonian should be fun. Almost everyone else from 228 will be flying down from LaGuardia with 1071 Max on Wednesday morning.

Just kinda curious, is anyone not flying/taking a bus?

Flying on Delta Airlines: Departs Detroit Metro Airport at 5:34 PM, Arrives in Hartsfield Intenational at 7:34 PM. (Not bad for $218 round-trip - Flight home is 11:35 AM - 1:35 PM)

I'm not going to school Wednesday even though I could get out at the normal 2:25 PM and make it to the airport by 3:30 PM to make the 2 hour suggested arrival time, but... I figure I might as well get as much sleep as possible because I probably won't get much, if any, in Atlanta.

One word...

Bus...

(where the players play)

I believe my team (330) is leaving Wed. morning/noon from LAX with AirTran. But i'm not really sure! For all i know we're walking from LA!

[KathieK]

AirTran has some good last minute sales but I think they have to be purchased by April 4, 2006. Check the web for good last minute deals.

Bus with 121

20 hours drive from RI to ATL it should be fun

What kind of bus?
How much does it cost (roughly)?

47 passenger charter (intercity Greyhound-type). Costs roughly $7000. Flying 30 people would be a few thousand more - and we had the possibility of 40+ people going this year. One benefit is that you have the bus available in Atlanta if you need it.

Weeeee...
Are taking a coach bus.
I am dreading this trip, to be honest. I'll be on a bus, with only 4-5 other girls besides myself, and...20, count 'em, 20 guys. AAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!! >_<; Wish me luck, people. Pranks will be roaming the bus.

I'm making sure I buy an iPod mini for myself and download every song I can get my hands on beforehand. Growl, that's going on my list for the weekend things to do.

Like Billfred said, teleportation! With the combined powers of our robots, we can teleport!

[Pat Fairbank]

Coach bus direct from Montreal. Leaving Tuesday around 4-5 PM, arriving Wednesday around 4-5 PM.
The bus' built in 6000 watt inverter + 1 wireless access point + 7-8 laptops and tablets + a 24 hour bus ride = LAN PARTY!
