When are people buying tickets for Pound4? I am very interested in going, and I want to buy them now while they aren't super expensive. Let me know if someone finds a good deal on tickets.

I've been checking for Winterfest and Pound. I'll probably be flying out of Dallas with my boy Van Jones. They're not that bad right now.

Every ticket Ilve priced for Pound 4, even this far away, has been almost 400 bucks since its over a holiday weekend. Obviously they will get worse, but I can't find anything cheaper than that atm.

Unless someone owes you a trip to Hawaii so you don't have to pay anything! :D

Dang Katie! Save the 400 and you and I can go to Cali! And maybe Zac since he want's to go back so much. But girls trip! Yes yes do it. :D

The closest airport to fly into for Pound 4 (I believe) is Baltimore. That's an 50 minutes to an hour away from the venue. >.<

btw ladybug

i did ONE quick search on priceline and it found the cheapest result from dalls to bmore to be $219 ($261 after taxes).

This is airtran also so u get 10% off if you do it, (21.90=239.10)

$239.10 for a ticket isn't great, but it's definitely not $400 like you're saying.

i'm also providing transportation to and from the airport.



Houston to BWI is $197 (217 after tax)

San antonio to bwi is 178 (211 after taxes)



Ladybug idk where you get your prices, but youve prob spent a lot of extra money in ur time LOL

:p

Expeida says there are no flights available for pound 4 from but when i checked last month it gave me an option of 5 different airports, are they really all gone lol or is there a better website to look for flights in?

yah I worked it out it seems DCA is about 60$ cheaper is the public transportation from there to the venue pretty easy too? Google didn't really help.

for el paso it ends up being 190$ with one stop and no tax.

If Winterfest is that cheap, I may be interested in going now. Though I'm going to need to find me a partner, not sure who doesn't have one yet ><

I rechecked yesterday and they had dropped. When I checked them it was over a month ago and they were that high.

Also the price of the ticket is indicative to when you fly out. If you can't fly out at 7 in the morning, then they are more expensive.

Zac if you need a partner for winterfest I am free, I'm not sure if anti will be making it to winterfest so if you would like to team I'll be open.

BTW I'll start looking into Pound 4 flights ASAP I bet you I can find cheaper rates then Plank.

EDIT: Those who are interested in Winterfest talk to me before the end of the week I would like to purchase my ticket this week if possible.

It's 3 months away, you can find a way to get there by 7 AM

The price of public transportation shouldnt matter, since i'm providing pickups to and from the airport for gas money (probably 10-15 per person depending on gas at the time)

hope to see tx there <3

I didn't say I couldn't, I was speaking relatively.

But I, and quite a few others, work. So I might -not- be able to get out at 7 am on Friday.

I'll know by tommorow whether hobo 20 is a go. If it is, I need a partner and will post whether or not I'll be driving there.
