Hotel + Flight Info For Internext Attendees

Okay as we have a little over 60 days left until the Internext show i figured it would be helpful for those of you who still havent booked hotels + flights to see what deals you have available :)

Hotels

Remember if you want to stay at the Westin (location of the event) you need to book mentioning that you are attending the Expo otherwise you will be told they are sold out.

In the event the hotel does sell out of rooms (highly possible) you can also try booking at the Holiday Inn which is about a 5 minute walk from the Westin max.

Flights

Here are some flights from Travelocity that some of you might want to look at booking all prices are based on travel from the 12th - 16th August and are a single person rate from the destination airport mentioned into Ft Lauderdale:

Cleveland - $259
Dallas - $281
Daytona Beach - $431
LA - $245
Miami - $294
Newark - $238
New Orleans - $248
Orlando - $121
Phoenix - $230
Sydney - $2082
Tampa - $143
Toronto - $277

Oh and dont forget that for the most part any drinks you will want during the show will most likely be provided by sponsors during their parties as well as a minimal amount of food.

If you havent booked already here is your chance to d so :)

Joe you would be surprised dude lol

I said that to someone at the show last year and they were like..

'huh what do you mean i live in miami and i flew'

I forget who it was now i think it was a tgp webmaster.

I couldnt beleive it either its less than an hours drive on a bad day LOL

Where would you fly out of Bec? I was looking at Ohio airports before... and wasn't sure which one was your ;)

I'd go out from the Cleveland Airport ... with airfare and hotel lodging from Thurs to Mon it'd run a litle less than $1000 for 2 people. code is CLE

That was a very helpful post, Lee. Last year the Westin did run out of rooms so I'd advise everyone to make their reservations.

from Dayton, Ohio (DAY) to Ft. Lauderdale (FLL)
for THREE people (my helpers and I) for
hotel (Holiday Inn - Hollywood Beach)
air fare round trip and rental car
from Thursday 8/12 through Monday 8/16
Expedia.com quotes:
$401.27 avg/person ($1,203.82 total)
and then convention admission adds another
150. per person x3 = $450.
bring it to just under $1700

now if only one of the big boys / sponsors / companies
were to run a contest for the $1700 prize or to need
help at the event in exchnage for the package - that'd
be a super duper blessing...

if I had to take just one helper making it 2 instead of 3
the entire $1700 package above would then be reduced to
$1250

I went to: http://www.internext-expo.com
to see who the sponsors and advertisers were going to be
to see if I knew of any of the companies that might need
help or be running a contest promo. . . off the top
of my head I don't recognize any as having mentioned
on the boards anywhere that they are running any contests
or promos - - - do you know of any ??

I do trust you...
that drops the $1250 (total for 2) so if I remove the rental car
that drops it down to just $925. - I hope allot of sponsors/
companies (etc.) read this BOARD ;)

I was in the middle of correcting my post and the admin
wouldn't let the post through... (past 5 minute window)

so here's the correction:

I do trust you...
so if I remove the rental car and redo the Expedia.com
search for 8/12 - 8/16 at the Holiday Inn - Hollywood Beach
here's what Expedia.com just quoted me for the
round trip flight for 2 and hotel for 4 nights:
$343.77 avg/person ($1,031.31 total)
and then on top of the is the Internext convention
admission cost of $150. per person (x2 people = $300)
for a grand total of $1331.31

- I hope allot of sponsors/companies (etc.) read this BOARD ;)
and are considering contest / promotions or need HELP... ;)


~Bell

I wonder if I can get it right this time
the above Expedia quote was for 3 people

should have been for 2
which would be:
$393.75 avg/person ($787.50 total)
then plus the Internext admission of 150. per person x2 people = $300

787.50
300.00
---------
1087.50


and if it were just me in my own room at the
Holiday Inn - Hollywood Beach
with round trip flight
Expedia.com quotes: $597.16 total
and Internext Admission of 150.
brings the total for one person
flying from Dayton, Ohio USA to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida USA
in at: $750.



:bow: ~Bell
:juggle: :gossip: :biggrin:

Bell -- run those stats through at www.travelocity.com ... what you are getting from that one site seems a bit higher than what I found flight/hotel wise.

I'm coming up with $930 round trip for two including the room for 4 nights

the 787.50 was for 2 people for 4 nights (Holiday Inn - Hollywood Beach) round trip air fare - on Expedia.com
the reason it was 1087.50 was AFTER adding
the CONVENTION admission price on of 150. per person
- that's to get in to the convention floor.

Just giving this thread a bump as over the next few weeks finding hotel rooms for the show is going to become harder and harder :)

If you havent booked already and you are attending the show make sure you do so :)
