Another example of what happens when you let the husband do the vacation planning....

Lol, my wife and I laughed very hard at this! Last time my wife planned the vacation.... well lets say I know more of the Japanese backstreets then a normal person should.

Plane tickets are alot cheaper the earlier you book. And when it gets closer to the date you wanna book, the price skyrockets ridiculously. I understand why you bought early but for something like this where you were not 100% sure you can attend wasnt such a good idea

Got lucky, managed to get 2 of the last 9 tickets.
But yeah, I understand your frustration. While airfare isn't a thing for me (fly private so fuel is my only expense) I know missing out because of a flimsy event site's server is disheartening and sucks for anyone.
Best of luck, really hope to see you there.

Flights don't double in price in 2 weeks time. Especially not that far in advance.
What people never do is delete their cookies when revisiting the sites that sell airplane tickets. The more often you visit the higher the prices go. Delete your cookies and save a fortune. Its amazing how little people know this.

I plan to go to London and hope to get tickets but i will only buy Train and Hotel if I know I got the tickets.
Now u know for next time to wait a while.

Unless you are flying first class and staying in a suite, I am not sure how you can arrive at a $2,000.00 bill for flights and hotel. Either you are using a travel site that is waaaay expensive or you really like to travel with some class. I found this deal from priceline staying at the MGM with round trip from JFK to LAS for $1,200.00.

On a different note, you should always wait to have the tickets to the convention before booking anything. I really hope you get some tickets in the general sale next week =(

you ever been to vegas? 2,000 for flight an hotel for 2 people is about avg
