So I wasn't planning on going to leadership...flights were close to $400. Yesterday I found one on Airtran for $220!! I booked, took the days off today and am excited! Who else is traveling to Denver?!?!?! We'll have to meet up!!
 
I'm going. I am getting nervous because I don't have the ticket bought yet. I don't want them to go up in price. However, I am traveling with Duska and my hospitality group and she's not ready to buy yet.

I'm glad you're going!! Way to commit!! And you got a great price on your ticket!
 
Woohoo!Booked mine last week or the week before....I'll be there!Anyone coming in on Weds and want to meet up? I'll have two other gals with me, but they will join right in I'm sure. :)
 
I should have my flight in a day or two, I will be there Wednesday and you KNOW I will come hang with you Deb!
 
I am having a b*tch of a time finding decent airfare that doesn't have unrealistic layover times... :(
 
Phily or Tampa direct are under=270
 
I am 4.5hrs from Tampa :(
 
I'll be getting in around 8:30 pm on Wed! I already have my ticket!
 
woohoo! i am SO EXCITED that you are going! I am too!

I FINALLY booked mine! I was amazed at what I found. I got a ticket with base airfare for $168 from Chicago!! Holy cow. With taxes and stuff, it was JUST under $200. I can't believe it! I can't wait!!

Oh wow! Is that one out of Midway? That's great!! O'Hare is closer for me than Midway.
 
  • #15
Yep, Midway. You would have a heck of a time getting down there. :)

I got mine for $179 today on Southwest! Great deal. I arrive in Denver at 10:30am!! I wonder what it will be like. We'll already know the trip and some other bit of Leadership knowledge ahead of time. I can't wait to see what they use that segment for now. I will miss the little skit.

They are still close to $300 from Orlando. I just can't afford that. Seems really expensive to me.
 
  • #25
i am so excited..i am going to book my flight right now!
 
  • #26
Everyone is able to find such a great deal. I thought if someway I could find a deal, I would be able to go. But I can't find air for under $365 from Albany, NY. I didn't do conference club for leadership this year. So it is just going to be too hard to swing it.
I'm not going to give up watching for a good deal yet though.

I found my flight using airfarewatchdog.com. You can set up where you want to fly from and when you want to go. They e-mail you when the flights drop. I would never have found my flight at that price if it wasn't for the site.

Are you rooming with Duska for Leadership? If she has room I will be in her room. It is always a toss up because she has so many team members going. Last year was a blast!!:party:

I am excited this year because I live so close to Denver!! WHOO HOo!! For the first time I will be flying out of my home city, Rock Springs, WY and not have to travel to Salt Lake to fly!! But the Salt Lake girls emailed me and their flights are only $119!! What a deal! I will pay the $200 and not drive 3 hours!!

Look forward to seeing all of you there!!!

Marlene, no, I will not be staying in her room. That is a high premium spot! Much desired! I thoroughly enjoy being part of her group. She really makes me feel included and I appreciate that sooo much!
 
  • #30
I am not sure if I am going. The hubby and I are talking it over to see if it's do-able. He is out on workman's comp right now and will have knee surgery soon.

I really want to go though! I will be walking if I do go!
 
  • #31
finally booked last night myself :)

really excited!!!
 
  • #32
Booked mine yesterday too! Now just keeping my fingers crossed that United approves my travel voucher so I can some some $$$ on the ticket! :)
 
  • #33
Melissa if you find a cheaper flight out of Albany let me know & I'll do the same.
i'm still up in the air about it too.....
 
  • #34
I couldn't find the info on CC. What airport does everyone fly into? Is it Denver?
 
  • #35
Yep, Denver International Airport.

I can't wait!! Plus I'm staying a couple days later to visit some college friends (I went to Colorado State for undergrad and totally miss Colorado!!).
 
  • #36
Is that the college in Boulder? My niece is a freshman there right now and I miss her sooooo much!!!!Go Buffs!
 
  • #37
We booked ours last night. We got them for $230 which was far better than we had been seeing earlier so we were all thrilled. I hope we hear hotel info etc from HO before long. I've not been on much so y'all may have talked about that and I've missed it.

Go Buffs!

Nope, it's in Ft. Collins. The Buffs are the University of Colorado. That's where my sister went. Very cool town! Go figure, us two Illinois girls both went to college in Colorado!

Just booked my flight. (For those looking at Orlando fares, it was $300 on Frontier NON-STOP both ways....love having a direct flight!)

[Now let's just hope none of the airlines go under between now and then! :rolleyes:

  • #41

  • #42
I believe it will be $200.
