Long trip for, yes but if you decided to go it's 100% worth every second of the trip.

8 hours is a good ride but worth it. All first time Mego meeters make sure to see me for your free megomeet keychain

The rental cars are unbelievable. Guess I'm gonna wait until last minute to see if any deals come around. They're 3X what I paid last year. Other than that I've found airfares to be pretty good right now. Booked round trip for $167. Was over $200 last year. Still out the door early on Sunday morning though. Mid morning flight out on Sunday added $160 to the total. Gotta be in the airport for 6:30 am as usual. That's probably been the one bad thing so far but it's been that way for the past 2 years. Does get me home by mid-late morning though. Going in earlier this year too. Separate the travel days a little more.

Thanks guys, obviously wouldn't miss Mego Meet for many things but this is at the top of the list. I was iffy anyway with the possibility of a new job and vacation time allotted. Have fun boys . . . . If that was ever in question

[ScottA]

That's sucks Jim. It was my concern as well but my son graduates the last weekend in May. You will be in our hearts.

Thinking about flying in from AZ for the meet, what's the closest airport?

Pittsburgh I believe. Doesn't Paul/The Hulk fly in from AZ? He'd be the best person to ask if so.

Funny. I looked at the prices to see what it might cost if I can go this year, and the airfares were too much (but Southwest only accepts booking until June 6th), so I'd have to wait and hope for a better deal, but when I checked Hotwire (my normal route for rental cars) the prices were just above $100 all in for 3 days, which is about what I've paid every year.

Pittsburgh is definitely the closest airport, and both US Airways and Southwest usually both have at least one nonstop a day (although times might not be great). Airfares are not as cheap as they used to be, but if you can wait for a good Southwest nationwide sale, US Airways will usually match it. Right now, fares are over $400 Roundtrip, and over $450 for nonstops, but you can probably get closer to $300 if you keep an eye on the fare sales.

I got my car last year for 10.95 a day, plus all the taxes from Hotwire. I booked that last minute and got a better deal. My airfare was great, but there are limited return flights for the best price. this will be the 3rd year I have to be in Pittsburgh at 6:00 AM but it's not too bad. Saved me about $100. Total airfare was under $200. Of course they just announced my daughters graduation, which was always in May will now be in June. On the Wednesday I was booked to leave. Delta's fee to change my departure was $200 on a roundtrip flight that didn't cost me that, so I am just gonna book another departure and eat my original cost. Lost a night at the hotel too, because I always book the cheaper non cancel option. Total it'll cost me about $150 but I've lost worse at the casino.
