Well, what seems like earlier than ever, tickets are on sale. It seem as though there is going to be less people at the preview night as the organisers are selling with and without the Wednesday - although with no discount Roll Eyes It would be a good interest point for me if they published how many tickets are available for each day (I'm a trivia geek Big Grin ).

Already registered for the show with preview night, and have my flights booked, all I need now is an inexpensive hotel! Are you returning, Graham? Smile

See how funds go. The £ against the $ is about two cabbages at the moment Shake Head I paid for my entrance at the last show Thumb Up

I found a hotel for $84 a night on hotels.com, Hawthorn Suites (nothing fancy), 3.5 miles away from the convention center. It's got pretty good customer reviews, too!

Went ahead and got my membership w/preview night. It is the early-ist I've ever got it. Usually wait till Feb/March. Don't want to worry, so got it out of the way. 2010 haay.

Batman, drop me an email and I'll share some hotel info with you or anybody else interested.
I got a SWEET deal on a hotel. But, paid in advance. I'm still holding a 2nd direct reservation with a Best Western though, that does not need to be paid until you show up at the con in 2010.
LMK if you want it before I cancel it.

Have a blessed day.

When you see hundreds ready to commit bloodshed for a free bag, you realise it already is Shake Head

Just registered for the show... No preview night but I have never been to preview night before so no biggie. Always book my flight out on Thursday morning.

Hoping to have enough free air miles for the flight & I'll start searching for a motel room I can afford??! Roll Eyes

Has anyone who's registered online received the normal email confirming your purchase?

I bought our tickets as soon as online sales began, and the charge showed up on my credit card statement either last month or the month before. I only recently noticed the lack of a confirmation Email. I wrote customer service a few days ago inquiring but have had no response. Anyone?

Thanks, Billzee
I better get on the phone with them since they didn't answer my email. Even so, I'm not too worried as its still a long way off...

I was still trying to work out the finances to go, but my wife refuses to go if we don't have 4 day passes because of the hassle of waiting in the entrance line every morning. This thing is getting to be a monster!

Jason00 - You don't have to wait in line every morning. I had seperate passes for Thursday and Friday for SDCC 2009. I waited in line on Thursday for that days pass, walked the floor all day then after 4 pm went back up to the sails pavilion and got my Friday pass and thus didn't have to wait in line on Friday morning. Smile
Hope this help sway your wife's decision.
Cheers - Peter

Peter -- you just cost me a few thousand dollars since your post actually swayed my wife. Smile She really didn't want to get to the convention center at 6am every day. Thanks!
