Just bought my ticket

[cmdtrgd]

Couldn't get it below $340, but I figured it was time :angel: I've been registered since day 1 and had Conference Club before that and have been looking for flights even before that. I am so happy about being able to fly into Dayton - saved me about $300. However, I wish they would have announced it so much earlier so I could have checked on flights to Dayton....off to tell them which shuttle I'll be on! :chef:

[DebbieJ]

Yay!!! Fun fun fun!

[chefmeg]

I amflying into Dayton, too....when are you going to be arriving??

[pamperedlinda]

Woo Hoo! See you there!

[cmdtrgd]

I'll be there Wednesday at 2:50 coming in on United - you?

Pretty sure I come in around 4 on Wedensday, also on United! I think the shuttle is supposed to leave around 4:30...at least the one I would go on....I guess I really need to get my :I thinks" under control and write all of my info down:o

[cmdtrgd]

I would give yourself more time on the shuttle so you have time to deplane (that never sounds like a word, but it is) and get your luggage.

[chefmeg]

good point...however, I am not checking any bags! Since I am not on a direct flight, I think it will be best not to check any luggage so as to not take any chances on getting to Cincy without it! Now to figure out how to pack wrinkle-free clothes and toiletries into one bag!
Any creative packers out there???

Don't forget, Meg that there's a limit on liquids in carryons. They must be in 3oz. or smaller containers, and all of them must fit in a quart-size zip-top bag. Just another thing to consider.

[chefmeg]

no problem...gonna sample size it all! I'm just trying to eliminate the possiblity of being at Leadership without clothes....not a pretty sight!:yuck:

Don't pack shampoo or anything like that you can just get from the front desk at the hotel! http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/chefann1138/smilies/oregonian_showersmile.gif

As far as other space-saving tips, repeat some items of clothing (you can wear the same pants or skirt on days 1 and 3, if you air it out on day 2); pack less underwear and rinse it out in the sink; don't take a hair dryer if the hotel has one.

And thanks a lot for the mental image of someone crossing stage completely naked. (Or through the airport, like the Bluefly commercial)

That reminded me...we were watching Bravo last night (The Top Chef Holiday Special) and the Bluefly commercial came on follwed by the perfume where Charlese Theron drops her diamonds, bracelets and then dress!! Well, my 10 yo DS and 7 yo DD said at the same time "why are people naked on TV commercials?".......how DO you asnswer that??? I just said that the advertisers must not be very creative with their ideas to have to resort to putting naked folks on TV...:mad: The worst part is that the special was on from 7:30 to 9:00, which is NOT the time of night my kids should have to see this stuff. OK-off my soapbox now!
