I will be there in person for both days.  Did they give you any room rate discounts?

I would like to confirm for the $40 web streaming and DVDs.  How can we get you the money?

People; i will setup a pay system, but first let me ask about the date.
I have march 19,20 reserved with the Palace station. The airfare is highest in Vegas on two weeks, one in spring (The week i picked) and once in October. This week I picked has the highest airfare.
Round trip for myself was $292 per person on Southwest. So $600 for my wife and myself.
One other weekend that is open is one month later, April 16,17. $142 round trip on Southwest. So <$300 for my wife and myself.

I looked and it appears all airfares from around the country are cheaper on april 16 as compared to mar 18th.

Further, the room rates are a little cheaper in April.
Hotels.com shows Palace Station: Mar 19 $112/night, Apr 17 $90/night.

So Mar 19 or April 17?

Same issue for me on flights.  Either works for me but prefer April due to price.  Anne

No difference in prices from XNA (Northwest Arkansas) - ok, $20 cheaper in April but that doesn't count when it's over $1,000 for the two of us on both dates. 


We would prefer March for other reasons (planning, conflicts, etc.).

I would love to attend in person but not sure I can swing that this year. I will see what I can do on that, However I will be in for the web streaming for sure on either date.

The Lone Star Holidays group is hosting their Spring Academy in Houston on April 2-3, 2016.

I'd prefer to do the Seminar first in March -- so that we can pass along some of the info that we learn with the Houston crowd.


Strike that... the savings for everyone is too significant.  Disregard my vote for March.

I would vote for April but I'm still looking to see if I can work out being there in person; I'm still a confirmed virtual for either date.
