How and where...?

[-Zka]

<DIV>So, what is the estimated distance and/or time it will take you to get to vegas?  For me it's an approx. 5 hour drive (Fresno, CA), so it's sorta a convenience.  Not sure on the other SOE games that will be there, but on EQOA most of the players are on the east coast, which i figured would cause a huge ruckus.  (I can see you east coastians spending some bank to get here...).</DIV> <DIV>  Where is everyone coming from and is there anyone else from cali that needs a car pool, (Car pool only applys if you are a supermodel) :smileytongue:</DIV>

[Joe]

<DIV>Well i live in Riverside CA, and its just a 4-5 hour drive. But yea, alot of my friends on EQOA are from east coast area and cant attend. I only have 3-4 friends that live on the west coast/mountain time zone but none are comein either. FYI, im not a supermodel :smileytongue:</DIV>

[Vlawde]

<P>Sacramento here, according to Mapquest it's around a 9 hour drive.  That assumes I am going the speed limit. :smileywink:</P> <P> It''s odd, I have been playing EQ for years, seems like everyone is on the East Coast</P> <P> </P>

<blockquote><hr>Nanyea wrote:flying out of houston, approx 90 mins to get there but return flight is like 3 hours or so... all non stop <hr></blockquote>Flight time is actually just over three hours each way to/from Houston. However, Houston to Las Vegas seems faster due to time zone differences; it "feels" like only 90 minutes. The return "feels" like a killer, though -- you depart, say, 3pm and arrive 8pm (local time).

<P>Brasse, </P> <P>I am from Melbourne Beach! Can you bring me a Ron Jon's T-Shirt, boiled peanuts, and some sweet tea?!?  :smileywink: </P> <P>What I would do for the last two!</P> <P>-Naieni/a</P> <P>EQ-Vazaelle</P> <P>EQ2-Steamfont</P> <P> </P> <P> </P> <P> </P> <p>Message Edited by chrisanne33 on <span class=date_text>05-01-2005</span> <span class=time_text>09:19 PM</span>

[Gett]

Louisiana <<<<<<< But you better have tagged a room there prior to May 18th as that is what the Las Vegas Hilton said the last day they had these special rates for the rooms available.  We were lucky enough to get a room for Friday and Saturday night at the Hilton but are gonna have to stay elsewhere on Thursday. Well>>>>>>>>>>

[TemptingFait]

Try the Sahara for Thursday, I know several are staying there and it's just one monorail stop from the Hilton

[Evangel]

<DIV>Another Denver-ite here,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>About 3 hours by plane.  Leaving thursday afternoon and coming back late sunday Tunare for getting switched to evenings.  Staying at the Sahara woo hoo!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Evangelon</DIV>

[OtanxJ]

<DIV>Well I am leaving from Ft. Gordon, GA on the 9th, and Vegas is a 2 week layover on my way to Korea.  So do I get points for the longest trip leaving Fan Faire?  Glad to see more people from Vegas posting, oh and Henderson (of, course).  Glad I won't be the only local this year (yeah, I know I wasn't but it seemed like it some times).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>---</DIV> <DIV>Otanx Trainstopper</DIV> <DIV>---</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

[Shaquan]

Hanford, CA (between fresno and bakersfield) here...going the scenic route tho, via Pensacola, FL (why do things the easy way?).

[Sissl-Nbu]

Will be leaving sunny TX and taking a few hours flight to sunny Las Vegas NV, girlfriend will be leaving on a slightly later flight, as she has work she still has to be at, and allowing that my itinerary is not *entirely* under my control <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[So]

<P>Another Floridian here, Orlando in fact.  Flying out day before and staying a few days after Fan Faire to take in a few other sights not consisting of Dark Elves and Halflings.</P> <P>Maybe we'll all get lucky and win enough to pay for our trips!!!!</P> <P>/agreed</P> <P> </P>
