OH with that I do not know.

I do know we have a 5% discount with American airlines check the OP
Thanks but I couldn't find any flights to Newark on AA.
Check all the airlines. If you want the cheapest price possible, you're gonna have to do your homework anyways. Might as well do a full blown check of all possible flexible dates for you to fly among different airlines.
You could always just go to priceline.com
Not that. I've already done that. What I'm asking is WHAT AIRLINE COMPANY do I choose? I've already found the price and date to choose but there are multiple airline companies to choose from. I hear stories about airlines charging fees for just travel bags. I'm asking what airline do most people have bad experience with so I can avoid it.

Peronally i used british airways, they did it for uber cheap when i booked. however im not sure if they do flights within america but with the price they give its worth a try

Yeah Sinji taking the subway from Brooklyn to Penn Station would cost you no more than 2-3 dollars, then from penn station to new brunswick will be around 15 one way. Taxi from Brooklyn to New Brunswick will be waaay more expensive unless someone here can reccomend something else for you.
ive been informed that entire area is dodgy as hell though. slightly uneasy about subway-ing

Brooklyn maybe but the New Brunswick area is perfectly fine. The hotel, venue, and train station is pretty much surrounded by the college campus.

Are you from Brooklyn? I'd check you're location but I'm on smashboards mobile.

Do you have to go through Brooklyn to get here? I don't think Brooklyn is that bad, just certain areas are. If you're just going to be doing public transit in Brooklyn you should be fine.

Depending on when you get there/where our bus drops us off, you're more than welcome to tag along with the canadians. :D

Speaking of which. Does anyone know where the megabus drops you off in new york?

Actually, the people that go from ontario and quebec will most likely be coming in by bus. WC and the Maritime provinces will most likely be flying in.

Brawl players (Except Stroumbert) will most likely bus to Apex.

Ontario, the Megabus will NOT be 2$ RT if you're going to New York City. It will be around 40+ RT just a warning.

I know Melee players from Canada will be driving haha they always do.

The megabus drops you a few blocks away from Port authority, but they have subways all around the city. Your best option would be to use the subway to Penn Station, from there, buy a NJ Transit ticket to New Brunswick. It should be 13$ one way (You have to spend this much there's no 2-3$ to get to Apex, forget about that ****) so basically you're looking at 30$ of subway/nj transit for going and coming back.

Now for megabusers, the cheapest way you can get to Apex would be to megabus to Philadelphia (1-2$ RT are likely to happen). From there, take the SEPTA to Trenton and then Trenton to New Brunswick. the train/nj transit might be around the same as if you came from NYC but your megabus ticket will be 40$ cheaper. Overall you can't be lost in NY, ask people for direction they'll help you out unless you get a $ hungry hobo, then you're ****ed LOL

Hey all,

It is almost October and the deadline before price increases will start on November 29th. Do not be one of the last people to register and sign up at APEXSMASH.COM. It is very important to us that we have most of the registrants signed up so we can help provide the best event possible. Please help us help our great community by registering NOW.

On a side note please post in the setup thread (http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=308272 ). Our goal is 80+ for each game and we need as many as possible. Currently we only have 20-30 for each game and we need TV/Brawl/Melee as much as possible. Remember you can have a chance to win a FREE NINTENDO 3DS. Help the community and show you care about the future of our scene.

Guys this is important. Without your help we cannot make this event great. Let us all work this out and make it the best event possible.

Ill talk to you on fb for some stuff though. The tickets aren't even out yet, so there isn't much we can do. Regardless. $40 is still cheap as ****.

Considering making it out to this. Going to talk to some people and we'll see what I can cook up.
CHECK YOUR PMS!

I'm still trying to convince Kel to go. But we're really poor. And we'll be leaving a baby Chinchilla at home...:<

I really really wanna go...

I hope you win this. After seeing your MetaKnight, I'm confident you will win brawl singles.
