SharkTums Posted August 7, 2006 Author Posted August 7, 2006 ^Yes, but we are able to help with that.
methylene Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Yup. Robb said he'd help me come over and build my Gyroplane. It's marginally more expensive than a commerical flight, but it is a one time investment! Â Matt
imdrunk Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 I'd like to be added to the Midwest email list to receive more information when it is available. I emailed Robb according to the directions on the first post, but I see others are just posting their interest in the trip in this discussion. If I'm not already added, please do so!!

ThatFalafelGirl Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 ^^ oof. i can't imagine spending the 14 hour flight in that. Well, much longer flight since that won't cover the distance quite as quickly. I imagine it will help you pack light. Â For those of you on the east coast thinking about Japan, Dulles Int'l Airport (IAD) in the DC area is ANA's (All Nipon Airways) Hub and has direct flights to Narita nearly everyday i believe. They are a nice airline, and i was quite satisfied with the service. Â -Falafel
benzo41190 Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 ^Yes, but we are able to help with that. Â So you mean, you could help us find flights from a certain area. Say, Chicago to Cincinnati. Â I would also like to receive a flyer for the Midwest and Japan trip. v_battery@yahoo.com
TexTitan01 Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Ms. Elissa, can you put me down for the mailing list on the '07 trips? thankya  I recently had a couple changes in financial planning and now the mid-america trip seems verrry inviting. However I will only be 17 next year by the time the trip rolls around. So I'm guessing prior arrangements con mi madre would need to be set up. I really wanna go though.  EDIT: after realizing that putting ur e-mail on a public forum is bad...it went poof
ParkTrips Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 So you mean, you could help us find flights from a certain area. Say, Chicago to Cincinnati. I know in my brief time in the VIP forum, there were several threads that popped up regarding major sales of airfare and such (If I remember, several people hopped on a huge Virgin deal out of NYC). Though, to be honest, with the Travelocity and Expedia's of the world, its not that hard to find a great deal - just sign up for their email. Â Also, to those posting your email address, I'd be careful about that since you're basically giving every spammer out there permission to send you emails on how to increase your breast size by a full cup
CoasterFanatic Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 ^ I was thinking exactly the same thing. If you are going to post your email, at least format it like this:  ted - at - tedcromwell - dot - com  Your inbox will thank you!
Louise Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 ^ Gotta love how people INSTANTLY listened to Jow and Ted's good advice.
thecoasterkid Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Exactly, the geniuses just keep on signing up. *edit* I clearly didn't read the last address close enough the first time around...classic. Â Anyway, just wondering if you guys found the best deal for the UK trip at the last minute, or if booking in advance saved some cash. Â I'm jumping way ahead of myself here, but I'm just so excited about it that I can't help it!
CoasterFanatic Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 I booked ours about 5 weeks or so out and probably got one of the better rates. Â PIT - LHR $750 / Ticket (after all fees) Â We saved a lot of money by leaving on the 7:55am flight out of LHR.
SharkTums Posted August 8, 2006 Author Posted August 8, 2006 We booked our airfare about 5 months in advance, and I continued to watch it all the time (for other people needing it) and it NEVER changed!
CaseyFish Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 The cheapest I ever found the UK flight for was 665.00 out of LAX. The only problem was I had to fly out of reno. It was about 1200 if I booked it out of reno to LHR but if I went through LAX it was a whole lot cheaper. You just have to check the flights about everyday. I got lucky when I found it on Expedia. It was 990 one day and then it would go up and down a little bit and then BAM I found it for the cheapest and grabbed it. Just keep looking, it was about 4 or 5 months out that I found it. Â Casey BOTBC:)
ride6 Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 ^Yes, but we are able to help with that.  So you mean, you could help us find flights from a certain area. Say, Chicago to Cincinnati.  Um, rent a car and drive? It's almost certainly cheaper than flying in this case, but I guess that depends on gas prices next year now doesn't it?  Anyway since I haven't recieved a flyer I assume you need my e-mail address: ride6_rct@yahoo.com  Midwest trip, I'm willing to help plan as well, just PM or E-mail if you need any information or advice *cough*IndianaBeachMustBeAtNight!*cough* Oops, I know that's not what this thread is for... How aweful of me.   Ride6
SonOfBeastSucks Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Please put me on the mailing list. Thanks  soccer90816@aol.com  -Dennis
GURZU Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Please you can put me in the list for the Spain trip¿?¿?  mariomf_5@hotmail.com  THX
deguy123 Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 I'd really like to do this trip when more info comes out (Spain, Italy). The trip sounds like it would be great. I'd end up going by myself(noone i know is a huge coaster person) but who cares ill be in Italy/Spain on rollercoasters. Â Deguy123@aol.com
CoasterCrazy Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 I want to be on the 2007 Trips mailing list.  musicfan21 at gmail dot com  Thanks
larrygator Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 I found a great flight out of Newark through a Travelocity special in February (thanks Big Mike) that was much cheaper than any other fares I had previously seen ($408 versus $685)
twistedmickey Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 I am interested in the Midwest trip. Please add me to the list. Thanks. Â JTOMF@aol.com Â
TPDave Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Â Anyway since I haven't recieved a flyer I assume you need my e-mail address: Ride6 Â I don't think the flyer has been sent out yet. Saying that, Elissa might have just left me off the list for a laugh
OzCatter Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Looks like my price keeps getting lower. Â American MCI to NRT and back for 908.80 roundtrip. And this is if I flew AA on August 31st 2006! Who knows how much it will be when I can view the flight in October
methylene Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 I haven't booked any of my 2007 airfare yet mainly because I've noticed prices seem to be inflated during the summer (possible correlation with higher gas prices in summers). Â Once the slow season starts (ie, September/October) I'm sure fares across the board will drop...at least a little bit. Â Also, southwest tends to have the cheapest fares, but they only have flights 5 months or so out at the most. Â Matt
