If you want somewhere cheap and cheerful near the LA convention centre I have made a reservation at the ritz milner hotel its cost me just over $1000 for;
A guest room which has a king size along with a pull out bed from the monday 21st to the 30th may 2007
Its a 8 mins walk to the convention centre up one street more or less
Maceys Plaza (shopping centre) is across the road which has a cash machine and even a post office.
You do not have to pay until check out.
This is my back up room just until I see what gencon/lucasfilm have to offer.

Did a little checking tonight. BA are selling airline tickets around £320 each way, looking for £620 return trip inc. taxes, et al.

I'll keep searching.

 

If you're spending more than £450 on flights you're being conned mate. Wait until around Nov/Dec this year before you seriously start looking, as the flights tend to peak in terms of cheapness about 6 months before travel, or literally just before you leave.

 

Phill, I went over lots of times to see my gf in 2004/5, and the prices did change with the season. £600 was Christmas time I think, CIII (April) was £300-400 I think - all return prices to NYC. We got a smaller plane from NYC to Indy for CIII.

The Fan Force Celebration 4 forum is here for people to check through. There is help with picking hotels on there.

 

As i said in a previous post wouldnt it be cheaper if we travelled as a group,that would be so much fun!!!

 

It's looking like I'll be able to make it after all. . . . . ok don't get too excited.

I'll confirm by the end of next week, if that's ok with you guys ?

 

Cool Tay

I think some of us will, but there are going to be at least two groups going from two different locations - Manchester and London.
And I don't want to confirm anything because this year will mean a lot of changes for me - first I am now out of work and looking (very much fun lol *shudder*), and next will be finding somewhere to new to live (rented most probs, no point settling down, my life always seems to change when I get rested - kinda apt having Bolton as a surname really, bit of a wanderer). So, knowing that all this may well put stop to plans next year, I will be holding back till probs Autumn/Nov-Dec before I really know. Unless I win the lottery, then I am so there

 

Not to mention, I may be there a little longer than the rest of you. My mate lives in Hollywood, and my bud from West Brom is planning to move out there around May next year, so I might be catching up with them before C4 starts. I'll have to check with them first, though.

 

If there is a group travelling from London please can they include me as i will be on my own otherwise and it would be so good to have some company!!By the way Timbolton i hope that you find work and somewhere to live soon,the best of luck!!

 

Timbolton - can you audit? We need some good IT auditors over here!!!

 

Thanks for the kind words quigonjaf1961, it is appreciated I have a house to live in still, but it will change later this year. Jobwise, I am looking and applying (Job Centre is happy with me, in fact I have surprised them supposedly with how much I do, even though I feel it isn't enough). So I am fine, first week was hard. But life is full of change, you either go with it, or get knocked over by it.

I'll make sure if there is a London group going, they know to include you

*looks up auditor in dictionary* I haven't done that side of things tbh Tethys, but it'd mean relocationing a little too. I have two jobs I'd love to do applied for, keeping me here where my family is, let's see where the applications go (hopefully not in the bin). But thanks

And you can both call me Tim btw (Bolton is my surname, I think I am the only one in the FF-UK, and if another Tim joins I'll have to go Highlander on them J/k).

 

Tim if you live in London i work for a law firm if i hear of anything going on the support staff side i will let you know and also who to get in touch with(this will be done in my private inbox though)-thanks for including me in the London travel list

 

Hi quigonjaf1961

We met at the London Film & Comic Con at the weekend at our table. It's hard to say at the mo how many London based members will make it but I'll keep asking around so hopefully we can all travel together if there are a few of us.

btw, for those who were at the LF&CC this weekend and picked up the brochure, you may have noticed the 'Secret Event' scheduled for July 2007. I'm not sure exactly what this is, but I'm hoping it will be announced soon and I think it's something most people here would be interested in, especially those who can't quite afford going to LA. Again, I would like to stress anything can happen so please don't get hopes up. Here's a PDF of the brochure:
Secret Event-July 2007

EDIT: Secret event/project is in-between Collectormania 11 and Collectormania Glasgow.

 

Mysteries, mysteries ... can't wait for that announcement, I have a feeling I'll be going to both then lol

quigonjaf1961 - Thank you! Though I am northern-based - Southport in Merseyside I'm sorry I missed you at the table, not sure where I was at the time, so apologies for that.
