Post #240,476 by inthane-chan 1/5/06 12:55:03 PM Reply	Silly question: Where is it being held this year? I know, probably the same place as every year, but just want to go hunting around for cheapest travel options... That possibly includes flying in to some podunk place along somebody's travel route and hitching up with them. When somebody asks you to trade your freedom for security, it isn't your security they're talking about.

Post #240,485 by admin 1/5/06 1:52:34 PM Reply	Better to fly into Flint than Detroit Cheaper and a nicer location, but you'd probably end up going through Detroit anyways. Detroit isn't that bad. The airport is in Romulus, not Detroit. The only pain is the long security wait. Flint is much faster. Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."

It probably would be cheaper to fly directly though. And you'd save more with less stress by taking a redeye.
