Decent fare prices and hotel rooms for DITD

**edew** · 11-27-2002 08:51 PM

The 2003 DITD is at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino. I got $40/75/75/40 for the long weekend which is pretty good for room rates. Also, airfare from SJC is $100 for me. Maybe you can do better from where you're coming from.

See you guys there (where we can snicker about the Saratoga Springs NAC...)

Put me in the snickering camp.

Eric, were those rates from the hotel direct or do you have a "secret" you'd like to share?

I went on to Orbitz, clicked on the "> Las Vegas" line on the very front page. It opened a new page with Vegas and what do I see splashed in front? Flamingo Hotel and Casino great deals. So I clicked on the rent a room line and got the offer. Pretty straightforward.

I was actually looking for airfare when I went on Orbitz. Didn't plan on getting the room rate as it was.

Some people do say that going to Vegas is like going to Hades.

As Mark Twain once quipped: "Heaven for climate, hell for society."
