Re: SW World opinions

Costs:

I just priced this out for two or three people to fly into Vegas and
stay at Caesar's Palace.

For 3 it was $3,000 and change. For two it was $2,500 and change. SW
has a three for two sale right now. This includes registration, four
nights (I go for Sunday through Wednesday) and airfare to Chicago.

If I was going on my own I would drive. Then it would cost me about
$1,200.

Use Orbitz or Priceline to find a cheaper hotel. Last year I stayed in
a hotel 5 minutes from the convention for $60/night. In Vegas you can
probably get away with this without a car.
