I will be flying out of Colorado Springs, and then probably from Denver to Seattle, so I'm posting Denver to Seattle flights.
Hey, me too! SurlyMcD & I might just drive up to Denver and out from there though. It depends on the cost of the hopper flight from CoS to Denver if it's worth the drive or not. We want to be in Seattle Thursday afternoon-ish. Do you think it's worth it to buy tickets now or wait until a bit closer for potential price drops?

I'm based out of Ft. Carson. Probably gonna leave a few days before though, like tuesday. I wanna sightsee and I heard its better to do it before.

Is there anyone planning to fly out of Milwaukee (MKE)? I'll go alone but it would be cool to not be hunkered down in a book for 4 hours next to a man who has "seen some things...and done some stuff, maaaaaaan".
I wish I had seen this thread earlier. Booked two tickets last week on flight from Los Angeles (LAX) to SEA for $79 there and $89 back through a now finished Virgin American deal. It's now $132 each way. Hopefully there will be another deal soon.
Just got my tickets tonight. Well technically last night since is 12:05am now, oh well. I'm flying on Virgin America from San Francisco (SFO) to SEA on the 24th. Flight 740 to be exact. I'm taking Amtrak on the way home though. First Pax here I come. =D

Nugh! Should have booked the flights two months ago. They went up $130. Now I have to debate whether I want to be cheap and come into SEA-TAC at 4:30PM or eat it and come in at 2:00PM. Mer.

Do you mean traveling by train? How long does it take from San Fran and why would you when plane travel is more efficient?
It's cheaper, if you buy rooms it can get pretty expensive. It takes 20 hours and someodd minutes from San Francisco. That why I'm flying to Seattle and taking the train back. There is no way your gonna get me to sit still for 20 hours BEFORE Pax. Ha. I know this is the Plane thread but if anyone if training it back to SF I'm on the "Coast Starlight #11"

Awww sad day. Have a ton of fun sight seeing though!! We would be flying out earlier to do the same but the week before PAX is the first week of our Fall semesters so we can't skip too much. I have my director already kinda mad that I will be missing marching band rehearsals. Maybe we will see ya'll on the flight back though

Got my ticket confirmation and booked my flight for my first PAX ever, leaving on Southwestern flight #1699 out of Nashville directly to Seattle non-stop. I don't know if you want to add it to the list or not.
As of right now none of my friends can go, so it looks like a solo PAX event for me so I'll for sure be trying to meet people along the way if I can!!!
EDIT: Whoops flight #1699 leaves on the 25th of August FYI!
I (and one of my friends) am flying out of Philadelphia (PHL) via Denver (DEN) on Wednesday on Southwest. PHL -> DEN is flight# 2726 (6:00pm EDT - 8:25 MDT) and DEN -> SEA is flight# 3814. (9:10 pm MDT - 11PM PDT)
Haven't booked the return flights yet. I had to jump on the outbound ones since it was only $89 ($110 with fees) for the one-way flight. Everything else I saw was at least double that. That fare is still up at the moment, so if you're heading to PAX from the Philly area, you should look into it.
I'm hoping for another sale in the return direction at some point.

Yay! Just waited less than a week and the price went down by $40 for me!
Thursday - August 25th

SEA at 1:23PM
Monday - August 29th
SEA - United 282 at 2:17PM

SFO at 4:21PM
Now, based on the previous years of flying, United/Continental share the SAME flights AND likely to adjust the times. So, times are 99% likely to change between now and August. Usually happens during the first 10 days of July.
EDIT! ...Or It happens on April 30th.
First adjustment - Leaving SEA/arriving at SFO 49 minutes earlier than originally booked as.

No one will be on my flight in because I always fly on Tuesday. Either I'll do the MMT Wednesday or I'll hang out myself. Flying out of EWR on United early Tuesday morning. Two hour layover in Denver, then around 11:30 flying for Seattle.
Returning Monday at 3:15 on Continental to EWR, might see some Paxers there. I have in the past, at any rate.
Flights Booked!! Daughter and I are flying From Ontario to Sea on Weds the 24th on Alaska flight 533 at 10:10am. We are departing Sea to Ontario, Ca on Monday 29th Alaska flight 538 at 1:40pm. My son is flying in from Boston on Weds the 24th on Jet Blue flight 495 at 7:36am and departing Sea on Monday the 29th on Jet Blue flight 495 at 11:40am. Now to not go completely insane waiting for this to happen...

Shweet See you on the way back then or around the con while you are in costume
I'd love to leave on Thursday but I just can't swing another $169 bucks for an additional night in a hotel room, so I'll be leaving Friday morning and getting there around 1 or 2 local time.

Room share... crammed rooms save you $400 or more for 4+ PAX nights... you sacrifice a bit of comfort for a lot of awesome roommates and a way cheaper price to stay!
Actually, after doing some maths and thinking things through, I've decided to just spend the whole day Sunday there as well and leave on Monday. Might still do the room share thing though.
Going to drive up from Colorado springs to Denver. The 8pm flight is a little late for me. So I'm going to take to 4:30 pm.

If anyone wants to drive up and split the gas or if anyone else is taking one of these flights let me know. If you want.
Man, if only you had said something sooner! I am based out of Ft. Carson, and if I had known I prolly would have split the gas for the drive with you. But I bought my flight out of CS instead. And I'm leaving out of Seattle at like 2 in the afternoon on monday.
