What time does your flight land in Atlanta? And what day?

Why - 100 and 1458 were the last two teams in the WORLD to qualify for the championship event... We had to take what we could get...

You guys going out of SJC or SFO?

I remember when we took that flight in 2002...SJC-ATL-Orlando. It was brutal. Long night on a hot, stuffy, cramped plane, with two robotics teams onboard making all kinds of noise the whole time.

Good luck

SBP-PHX-ATL Arrives at 9:00pm Tuesday night.

Allows for a stress free trip, and a calm Wednesday before going to the Dome for Volunteer stuff.

Any teams going to the Wednesday night load in, feel free to say hi when you see me

What's even worse then the 28 hour trip is the fact that no one is really sure how many power outlets there are.

It's probably not a SWITCH. It's probably just a stop in NYC.
That wouldn't surprise me in the least...

And as far as power outlets go, there's usually two to every seat.
But don't hold me to that...
There is DEFINITELY outlets in seats 19-20 or 22-24
(depending on which way the train is facing).

Also, the power has a tendency to cut in and out,
so you might want to unplug your laptop/whatever you have plugged in,
and wait to re-plug until the power is restored
(it's usually only a few seconds, but it'll save you a power surge!)

Dining car food is VERY expensive, so bring snacks and spare your wallet!

And if anyone has any other questions, PM me, I take the train a lot ~__^

About half of our team is getting there around 2 pm wednesday and the other half (including me, not that that's important) is getting there around 7:30 pm wednesday.

Though nobody will be wearing their shirts, but maybe a robotics button? Yes everyone wear your buttons so we can strike up a convo with you on the long flight

[Ericgehrken]

Team 195 is arriving around 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday.

[Compnerd]

Flight? What flight? We are taking a bus from St. Louis. We don't have enough money to fly

[yodameister]

At least the east coast teams have the option to take a train , a bus, or even drive. The west coasters are forced to fly for the most part. Be thankful that you have options. I wish all the best in Atlanta. BTW, Our VEX team will be arriving at 1:52 PM on Wednesday.

[Robyn Needel]

Our team is taking an overnight bus from Baltimore tonight (Tuesday) leaving about 6 p.m. We hope to get to Atlanta, Days Inn downtown, by about 8 a.m. and do a little touring. Some of the mentors are volunteering, so we'll be at the Dome for check in and orientation,and hopefully our pit team will have time to set up tomorrow night as well. Then...who knows?

Anyone interested in meeting up later Wednesday evening, after pit setup, if you are around?

team 1002 is leave school around 7:00pm on Wed and will arrive at the Hyatt around 7:30pm on Wed.
See everyone then

Myself and our animator are flying in at 7:19 on Wednesday on flight 834. Our programmer is arriving a little over an hour ahead of us, and is going to wait for us so we can all take a taxi to the Embassy Suites. Hopefully we'll see other FIRST teams on the flight, its always fun to spend a 5 hour flight with other FIRST junkies

I'm traveling with part of Team 1622, Team Spyder... We're not getting in until 11:45pm Wed. And oh by the way I have 36 of our remaining 'Got FIRST?' shirts... I'll be bringing around 12 a day so if you want one, or you wanted one last year and didn't (because we ran out last year in Atlanta) I'll be around, come find me.

[BandChick]

1403 should be in somewhere around the same time as 25 and 1089...
