I think almost every recent weekend when things were hairy these particular AE stations closed unless it was when the whole operation was shut down, when of course nothing was open.

I know many of the protestors are students so not getting up until after noon is not unusual.

I usually fly out at 10:30 am so I'd likely go to the Regal just to hedge my bets. My usual hotel is being kind of stingy with the discounts vs. much bigger and better hotels.
