MikeMurdock McMillan Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 I seriously want to go after I had loads of fun at MFF. Though I need a ride or some mode of travel to get there if anyone can help me with that and letting me stay in there room i'll defiantly go. I also need to collect some money for it as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro Zapatero Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 If my supervisor commander allows me to use my vacation time during Active Duty, I'll definitely be there. Going to book a room with non-Ordo people most likely if anything. :x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsume Xiao Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 For me it really all depends on Job/Internship status and if I can get time off.I'd love to go again though for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RazorFox Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 payday! so far I'm at $60 CAD. anyone have some numbers of what is needed usually? (distance just over 1000miles)Ask Anlysia about flying from Canada to furry conventions in America. It ain't cheap.My overall budget is $800 USD.$40 for prereg. You gotta prereg, fuck that door noise).$200-250 for my flight. I save money by booking online directly through the airline waiting until closer to the departure date when they're trying to fill seats and they drop the ticket price real low.$40 for the Supershuttle to and from the airport. It's $20 to get to Pittsburgh from the airport and $20 to get back. This is how I almost got stranded in Pittsburgh last summer. $100-150 for lodging. I try to get in on a room with a lot of people in it because splitting it among lots of people lowers the price for each person.The remaining $320-420 goes toward miscellaneous purchases (HEY LOOK ANOTHER FUCKING TAIL IMMA WEAR IT ON MUH BELT LMAO), food, and liquor. In my case, the cost of liquor usually exceeds the cost of the other two combined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anlysia Gregoire Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 My flight is likely going to be close to $700. Mind you, if I drove to Minneapolis and flew from there, or even Fargo, that'd get deducted a lot. But since it's vacation to me and I'm lazy and want to relax on it, I just fly from my city and eat the additional cost. Plus, you know, gas for driving and then paying for parking my car somewhere in Minneapolis/Fargo would eat up a big chunk of the money I'd save so it's only a half-savings.
