Do you think it is better to wait and get tickets closer to January or get them early? We got our tickets several months ago flying out of Indy at about $291 per ticket! We have 11 people going from our group!
I would much rather work with 100% heart and 75% talent than 100% talent and 75% heart!

when i was going to originally book my tickets was when the ticket prices shot way up. Airline tickets are usually hit or miss, as the prices fluctuate daily. If you want to do the work, you can find a pretty good deal, even 2 weeks out from when you want to fly. I generally book flight s a month in advance, but i watch the trends and always try to do the special "deals" like having flexible dates, etc.

I've had the best luck on travelocity using their flexible dates option, then still trying to get the dates that i want.

:) :yes:

I went last year for the first time. I can't imagine not going. Only severe illness or family crisis could keep me away. Darn, I'll have to miss a faculty meeting. ;)

You should just go to all the lectures that all the older vaulters and coaches go to. There will still be lots for you to do :)
