Cheap Flights to Conference - Fly SouthWest

[Brett_Tabke]

Word on the street is that if you fly southwest to new orleans, you can get into the conference hotel $49 a night. It apparently can only be done from the southwest.com site.

Any idea about hotel space in the area during the time of conference? I'll be driving. Do I have to have reservations?

spaceylacie,

You will need to make your own reservations with the hotel directly.

Okay, hotel plans are set. See you in New Orleans!

When is everybody reaching?

The hotel also has a 20% off for 3 nights or more. The room I booked was about $60 per night which lets me fly by Jetblue (which was about $165 round-trip from JFK).

WOW! That is the best deal I have heard of yet!

I got a reservations through hotels.com for $60 a night, before taxes of $48 for 4 nights, without an airline combo (not a choice for me, since my airport only has Northwest and American)

Damn , i also reserved thro hotels.com but for approximately $96/night :)

If you call the hotel directly, you'll the conference price of $79.00, just let them know you're attending... $60.00 or $49.00 is better than this...

New Orleans is Southwest Airlines' featured destination this week - may offer the opportunity for some lower fares for those who are coming to visit.
