APC9 itinerary

Travel arrangements are set, and registration duly paid to [livejournal.com profile] treacle_well. This will be [livejournal.com profile] patgreene's first APC... many thanks to Nancy, who is going beyond the call of duty in flying out from Minneapolis to watch my 3 kids that weekend (smile).

Flights:
Friday 11/8/02
CO 40, lv. San Francisco 7am, arrive Newark 3:15pm
CO 98, lv. Newark 4:30pm, arrive Boston 5:50pm

Staying at the APC site, the Waltham Westin hotel. I don't know if we'll get a rental car to/from the airport, it depends in part on what [livejournal.com profile] geekchick is doing.

Sunday, 11/10/02
CO 1431, lv. Boston 5:45pm, arrive Cleveland 7:50pm
CO 755, lv. Cleveland 8:20pm, arrive SFO 10:30pm

This should be fun... (smile).

Hm... as of 10 minutes ago, Washington-Boston roundtrip train fares are $120 (cheapest, getting a 14-day discount on the return, not on Acela). But flying from Baltimore into Providence is only $108 (again, with a 14-day discount on the return flight) on Southwest, or about $149 with everyone else. Flying from IAD or DCA is prohibitively expensive (>=$350 RT). If you decide on air or rail, we will happily split the rental car costs...

When one adds in the hour and a half to get to BWI from here, plus time and hassle to get from Providence to Boston, it works out to not be such a great deal. If I can find a cheap flight that gets me to Logan at roughly the same time as y'all arrive, I may do that...otherwise I may just drive up myself.
