Guys, airfare to DC isn't cheap so close to Thanksgiving, but if you leave Austin Friday noon on SW and return Monday it costs about $149 each way. To Reagan, non stop. Very good deal.
Ah, the former Hotel Washington. I haven't been since they spiffed it up and made it a W, but if you get a chance, you definitely need to have a drink up on their rooftop terrace. One of the best spots for a drink in town. You probably don't want to have more than one drink there, because it wasn't cheap even *before* it was a W, but the view is definitely worth a bit of a premium.
I have game ticket information if you want to stand with the Texian Army. I believe that information also went out to EB and the other SGs. I'll check on that. There will also eventually be a link for individuals to buy tickets in that section.
When I left KC I was 100% sure of king to DC. Got home and was like 50/50 on going. Now I'm like 60/40. Tomorrow morning I expect to be at 80/20. After the game m sure it'll be back to 100%. So I guess I'll see y'all there.
I'll be at the game....I live just west in Falls Church and will be taking the metro in.....any idea what section we'll be in? I went earlier this year in April and made the mistake of getting tickets behind the DC supporters group....not good. If you're looking for a good footie pub I recommend Lucky Bar in between the Dupont Circle & Faragut North metro stops.....good atmosphere and always pack in the mornings showing all the EPL games
Just booked my flight. I'm flying in a few days early to visit family. Arrive at BWI on Wednesday 11/14 at 2:40pm Leave from BWI on Monday 11/19 at 4:36pm
Balmore? Might I suggest "The Wire" self tour - I took it at our first away DC United Game. p.s. Omar's Coming!!!!
I'm in along with my brother. I'm on the 7:59 on Saturday as well. Any word yet on supporters tickets?
As stated a few posts up in this thread. Are you in an SG? If so, you should contact your group. If not, I can send you a link.
Air Fares are nutz - yesterday United round trip was around $700 - now it's $320 for travel 17th returning 19th.
Just got my tickets....I'm pumped I've been to every Dynamo game here in DC the past two seasons but first time I'm sitting with supporters group so should be fun Dale Dynamo!
I'm coming in at about 11:00 pm on Saturday, so I don't know about anything then, but I'm definitely up for post-game shenanigans. Flight prices really are variable, so check again if you thought they were too high a day or two ago (and check all three area airports). Hotels were also much cheaper than I expected.
I need a link for a SG. I have 4 AF friends coming with me to the game under the auspices that they have to root for the Dynamo...
