Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
If you are like myself and still haven't purchased your airfare to Seattle, today would be a good day. Southwest (and Airtran, since SW just purchased airtran) are having a web-only sale - one way tickets are between $40-$120 depending on the distance. For me this was a great deal, as I saved over $100 over what the fare was just yesterday. (flying in from baltimore). Just wanted to pass this on:

What it is: An attempt to group people together and the smallest amount of varying flights as possible, let it be connecting flight grouping or joining up the whole way down, you'll not have the feeling of sitting next to that sick and/or awkward person.
How: By putting up a list of flights that are recommended to go [and where to sit] and you book on them, though they are not always the cheapest; the market is just jumpy like that. Make sure to book in the desired seat area, if the airline allows selected seat booking; which most of them do.
Participation: Simple just reply with the following form:
Plane:Each of the flights will have their unique names, with the suffix PRE meaning a Wednesday flight. Your Handle:Plus any additional +1's, 2's, etc. Origin Town/Airport:Where you're coming/flying from. Connection Arrival Time:If you're flying in on a unique flight and meeting up with a WANG flight, put when you arrive at the airport HERE. Seat(s):You, and your possible traveling companions', seats.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Spoiler:
Why are their no return flights from Seattle listed?Welp, if you depart anywhere from 0-2 days after PAX, you're going to hit A LOT of attendees in all major airports (assuming you don't leave too early). So hooking up on return flights shouldn't be as much as a problem as hooking up on inbound flights.
My airport isn't listed Speak up! Reply in this post that you're not getting any love, but if your airport is not a major hub (like Rochester International) it probably won't have a lot of connections and therefore won't have a lot of people going in and out of it as compared to a place like Atlanta International. Also, you'll probably be connecting through a WANG airport hub, soo check for WANG flight numbers when you're searching 2+ stop flights from your smaller aiport.
That WANG flight is more expensive than X flight that is similar!Hey man, the airline market is very jumpy (and the flights were cheapest at the time) and prices vary on date, plane booking status, and popularity of the flight... and I'm pretty sure many more complex algorithms go into the science of pricing these things! If we constantly change the flights, no one will be together, and hey... maybe prices will drop in like a week or more!
Why aren't California airports and flights listed?You got PAX train! Looking at those videos and the awesome comments regarding the pre-PAX train ride up through CA, you'd probably want to pick them over this. If you somehow HAVE to fly, just book... not a lot of forumers should miss this experience if they were given the opportunity to board PAX Train.

if I fly, I'll likely be out of ROC I think, so probably the same flight as you WI. I'll be participating in ONE damned travel group this year, I swear it.
Assuming I have enough money to make it, I'll be flying from Glasgow (don't imagine there'll be too many joining me there) and connecting in Philadelphia. US Airways seems to be the cheapest airline for the route.
My trip hinges on some friends wanting to go, and we would probably be flying out of St. Louis. If I went the way I traveled last time, it looks like it would cost me disproportionately more than would be reasonable.
I've actually already booked my flight on Southwest out of PHL. The wanna get away fare was way lower than anything else I could find for that same time period.
Creamsteak, I think I might have a layover in St. Louis ^_^
Flying out of PIT most likely, though CLE or CAK if it's cheaper enough to drive 2 hours to catch a flight (it sometimes is...) and/or to hook up with PAXers for the flight
“Myth is the hidden part of every story, the buried part, the region that is still unexplored because there are as yet no words to enable us to get there."
My boyfriend, I, and our friend will be flying out the Thursday before from Denver International Airport.
We may have another group of my friends in tow. None of us have bought plane tickets yet though so no times.
Hope to see some other PAXers there!

If you get your flight before I do, let me know so I can try and get on the same flight. Would be cool to fly with someone going to the same area. I will be the only one from CS going, so yeah.... I'm meeting people in Seattle though.

Will do =) We are going to buy our flight the day we buy our passes so hopefully that will be the first day they are on sale! I think you said on another forum that this will be your first PAX as well or am I wrong?

I already have my tickets through Southwest, but I can still change which flights of theirs I take.
Planning on flying out Wednesday from either Cleveland or Columbus with one stop somewhere in the middle (currently St. Louis, but Chicago Midway and Phoenix were other options), so if anyone else is going with Southwest that day let's see if we can organize.

I plan on doing the same thing. Buying tickets when I get my pass.
Yes this is my first PAX. I have always been a big gamer, and never really knew about conventions. I am originally from Indianapolis, and I never even knew that there was a gaming convention in Indianapolis.

Wow Wingedillidan! You put a lot of work into this. Definitely more than what was done last year. Kudos and thanks!
:3, multiple posts for increased organization also helps... it was chaos trying to scroll through the end of a giant megapost of flights, who's on them, and details.
I'll be flying again this year no plane tickets yet, but it'll most likely be on Southwest, flying direct from Phoenix, AZ on Wednesday night before PAX. As soon as I have finalized numbers, I'll be sure to post!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the one airline that has a non-stop from CLE (Continental) is charging $474 a pop. I'll look more into this in the chance I am wrong.
EDIT: If you fly in on Thursday, you can take United Airlines (which has Continental flights listed as well) and connect at IAH to get on the LOLCAT plane. You would pay $165 right now, it is a lot of travel time though. I'll continue looking up additional options...

At the very least it will be me. It's all up to whether or not The Boyfriend has (a) a job and (b) if he can get time off. If there is no (a) then he will be joining. And if the employers are nice and give him (b) then he will go.

Seeing as I'm flying in from London, I can't seem to be able to co-ordinate with any of the flights listed here. They are all in Canada, either Calgary or Vancouver. Looks like I'll have to give WANG a miss

Creamsteak, I think I might have a layover in St. Louis ^_^

We may have another group of my friends in tow. None of us have bought plane tickets yet though so no times.
Hope to see some other PAXers there!

If you get your flight before I do, let me know so I can try and get on the same flight. Would be cool to fly with someone going to the same area. I will be the only one from CS going, so yeah.... I'm meeting people in Seattle though.

I am actually flying out of Philadelphia, which day and flight are you looking at?

I'd most likely be flying on the Wednesday. US Airways flight 74 from Philadelphia to Seattle, at 17.55.

I never finish anyth
Over-Over stuffing rooms or staying at a friend/family's place? Cause that looks like a destroyed hotel bill to me....
Will do =) We are going to buy our flight the day we buy our passes so hopefully that will be the first day they are on sale! I think you said on another forum that this will be your first PAX as well or am I wrong?

@Durinthal
I plan on doing the same thing. Buying tickets when I get my pass.
Yes this is my first PAX. I have always been a big gamer, and never really knew about conventions. I am originally from Indianapolis, and I never even knew that there was a gaming convention in Indianapolis.

Exactly. Though I usually have a few on the flight home.
:3, multiple posts for increased organization also helps... it was chaos trying to scroll through the end of a giant megapost of flights, who's on them, and details.
I will be getting off work at 9am on thursday, :zzz:, packing and flying out that night on

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the one airline that has a non-stop from CLE (Continental) is charging $474 a pop. I'll look more into this in the chance I am wrong.
EDIT: If you fly in on Thursday, you can take United Airlines (which has Continental flights listed as well) and connect at IAH to get on the LOLCAT plane. You would pay $165 right now, it is a lot of travel time though. I'll continue looking up additional options...
Granted I am more Northbound...coming from California...but we're all going to the same place in the end, right? RIGHT!?
So!
At the very least it will be me. It's all up to whether or not The Boyfriend has (a) a job and (b) if he can get time off. If there is no (a) then he will be joining. And if the employers are nice and give him (b) then he will go.
Anywho! Precise Dates!
Thursday, August 25th - Monday, August 29th.
Times and flights are still up in the air (no pun intended) since I am still trying to see the pricing and if my mate is going or not.

i'm Buffalo so i figure looking into a rochester/buff/toronto connection would be prime
Im not sure about my solid plans as of yet. I might depart from Maryland or Northern California, there is also the offchance of not making PAX at all!
Do you haz available flights from Vancouver? I still haven't setup the Canada area yet. Do you fly Air Canada or do you follow your carrier from UK or something?
