Does anyone have any sites they could reccommend for cheap flights from here in the UK? That's the only really thing that's stopping me now is the price of the flights, need to get them a bit cheaper than what I'm seeing so far... SMILEY<img src=" width="15" height="15" />

To give a random example, American Airlines charge 1085.80 USD for the return and that's with even going for cheaper flights with changes and such... SMILEY<img src=" width="15" height="15" />

Flight prices are going to fluctuate alot. I went with Virgin Atlantic last year and paid about 700GBP return. The following week the price went down to about 550GBP approx. Yes I was gutted but I couldnt refund as this is how plane ticket prices go.

Best thing I would say to do is keep an eye on the prices on a regular basis but dont book right away. Your going to look at paying around 500 to 700 to get to Vegas.

www.ebookers.com will give you a list of all airliners going on the search you do but they charge a little extra, what you can do is find out the operator name and go directly to them it should be cheaper.

Any further information, get me on msn. Im not gonna book untill the oportune moment. Weve got over 2 months to get a flight.

Yea though it is Non Direct, it stops off in Detroit, Michigan. Flight time of 16hours.

Of course if you prefer to go direct then its 10hrs, but you pay a bit more.

Well... either way we'll see closer to the time. I can't commit to it right now as my funds are tight as hell, so I don't know for sure if I'll be going yet. The pains of uni, yet the joys of summer jobs. I'll be able to say for sure yes/no closer to the date...

and yes, that flight was non-direct

Personally I'd simply enjoy the same enthralling ventures as last year. Crowding around Rarebit like he's the sun, making fun of the story in a small room with Star Wars (I think) yelling bothan at the top of their lungs. And whatever else we did that night.

Simply, I'd have enough fun enjoying the company of the people who play this game.

Exactly.

Well, except Tseng. :O
Yeah, that's true.

Any people getting together to share rooms or something?

I don't feel like blowing all my cash on just rooms alone. 1 person in a classic room is $834.00 which is a good chunk of cheese.

If I can room with you, I promise not to do the following:

Sleep Naked
Punt you.
Stare at you from dark corner of the room smoking a cigarette while you sleep.
Wake you up at 3am for PvP in Mara.

On the other hand, I cannot guarantee the following:

Not saying ZOMG constantly
Snoring

Oh and those Heart Boxers might possibly be making a comeback at Fan Faire. =D

God I hate British people Currency Exchange. They're just so *CENSORED* rich, America is just like a buy one get one free sale at Wal-Mart to them. D:

Couple questions for those of you that were at Fan Faire last year.

What were the things you enjoyed?


What kinds of things would you like to see this year?



This is just for my reference since I was on another project during last years Fan Faire.
