Stacy 0 #153 November 25, 2003 just an FYI about southwest, as i *thought* i found some good deals through them for the holidays and visiting family- when you try to book, they will show you the different fares for each flight, ranging from super discount or whatever up to fully refundable. UNLESS you can find matching fares (ie 2 super discount) for your flight to and from, you can't book the cheap fare. When I looked for the holidays i found cheap ones to BWI, but only the expensive ones back regardless of date. Even tried to book 2 one ways to get the cheap rate and they eliminate the cheap fares from one way travel. Kinda mean, I thought! __ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katiebear21 0 #154 November 25, 2003 Well, Chuck and I still have $800 delta dollars that we won't be able to use. We'd be willing to sell 'em (to anybody in need) for half of what they're worth or figure something else out... They're transferrable, just got to figure out the logistics.Send me a PM if you're interested. Gotta be used before 17 Jan!

PLFKING 3 #161 November 25, 2003 QuoteAnyway "we" can post that schedule in the pub somewhere so we know who we are jumping with? That would be good....not only to know who we're jumping with, but maybe use it to split the cost of the video slot.....I'd like to get video of at least one of my jumps, but don't want to pay for the entire slot myself.

dzjmg 0 #168 November 25, 2003 Just wondering from all you folks who attended last year: Does the camping area get really crowded with tents or do most get hotels? I usually camp but am wondering how much room there will be . . .Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #173 November 25, 2003 QuoteDoes the camping area get really crowded with tents or do most get hotels? Yes. I don't see you having a problem getting room to toss up your tent, but you may have to have people slide their tent over or something like that if you get there after everyone else has gotten there.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

moodyskydiver 0 #175 November 25, 2003 QuoteWhen I thought I was going, I offered her a ride, she declined since she wanted to take her truck and only her truck. She didn't want to ride with anyone, but wanted folks to ride with her. Its not a matter of me wanting to take my truck.Its just that after the way things in my life have gone in the past yr I dont trust anyone enough to ride alone w/them for a long trip.Like a few others said, I dont want to be stuck on someone else's schedule either.I'd like to be able to come/go when I please. I'm still working on details to go,but its still a tossup. "...just an earthbound misfit, I." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
