Good catch. Thanks for the heads up.

The best dates that work for me come to $278 from EWR, $258 from LGA and $198 from PHL.

Now I have to consider of $200 savings is worth the PHL trip for the two tickets I need to purchase.

I already purchased my BoltBus ticket PHL for $1.00 and would hate to waste that :p

I just checked a few minutes ago and it was $198, then $202 and back to $218. I dont like this roller coaster ride :eek:

The glory that is the Tuesday night/Wednesday purchase window. Fares are always lower. I am just annoyed that I have my LIM ticket booked and don't know that I'm going to be able to change it. I really don't want to throw away the value of that ticket, even for the DO.

I read somewhere on here that someone eluded to the fact that they waived change fees for the last DO/THING/MEET, but I don’t remember where in these pages on nonsense banter I read it. Honestly, I think they should waive the change fees for this. This is something that we all want to attend and it is just good customer service to do so.

I would love to just purchase my tickets now, I am the type of guy who need instant gratification and this is driving me nuts, but I am going to wait until the date is officially released.

Yeah...it was alluded to, if not mentioned outright, in the main thread that J.Edward convinced someone to waive change fees last year. I just need to know with some certainty what that means for me in reality before I commit. I'd love to do both the DO and my trip to LIM, but I can't really afford to throw away my LIM ticket with nothing in return, and that's what I'm looking at right now.

Got it, you're leaving Monday, I was checking Sunday return.

Yeah, that sunday return is just crazy. It is cheaper for me to spend another night in Houston than pay for two tickets for sunday.

No harm in trying, right? After all, it is THING IV, the sequel to THING III.

Well done! Are you at least taking care of yourself by warming up with some booze?

I was just a complete 'tard and cancelled an existing prepaid SPG rez, booking another (cheaper) prepaid rez over the top of it. I forgot to check the T&Cs of the more expensive, existing rate before cancelling it. :o

At least I found a $99/night rate at the W New Orleans for a different date to somewhat make up for my total stupidity.
