Airfare to San Pedro Sula is currently $253 and that leaving friday morning and returning sunday. I'm thinking about doing this trip but I worry it will be a little more hostile than Costa Rica. Anyone else interested in going or thinking about it? I would have to make it as quick a trip as possible due to lack of vacation days at work. What's the general consensus?
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? Im thinking of going. Cheap airfares, hostile atmosphere. Sounds like my kind of trip!
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? I've been thinking of going, but the coup de tat does make one wonder a bit. I guess travel insurance would be a good idea. My plan was to combine the trip with a one week Spanish immersion program in Copa de Ruinas.
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? x2 !! I also agree to this, luckily its a little ways in the future, so it might blow over by then. I'll be trying to stay informed about the situation and will try to keep this post alive and confirm for sure yes or no in a month or two.

Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? is it correct to assume that this match will be played in San Pedro Sula not Tegucigalpa?
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? I think so. It's the home of the national team, its the second largest stadium in Central America, and it's where Honduras has played previous qualifiers. It's also waaaay cheaper to fly into! Anyone ever been there knows nice places to stay? I'm researching now, I'll post what I find.
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? Definitely all US fans should look to stay in the same spot so we can travel together to and from the game.
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? Ive stayed at the Intercontinental, pretty nice and convenient. I believe thats where the team will be staying as well.
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? You can count me in. I have airfare and will be staying at the Intercontinental.
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? I booked for $125 a night. Not the cheapest hotel you will find in Honduras, but Im spoiled and like some creature comforts.
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? i just did a search. there are packages available 10/9-10/11 at the Intercontinental for "Business Sense", "Insider Leisure 2" and "Best Flexible w/ Breakfast" where rates start at $120.
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? That might be my problem. I was looking at a one-night stay only since I was planning to arrive the week before the game. I'm still pondering that given the situation there. Today's news sounds better than yesterday's.
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? Month later.. Who's in? I am 50/50 at this point and it will be just me. Flying in Fri and out Sun Swkfilms thinwhiteduke mhaifa
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? Unfortunately, I have taken a new assignment at work that will not allow me to get away this fall. So, I'm out.
Re: USA vs Honduras October 11th Who's Going? I have been downgraded to maybe....I have to be in London for a week (work related) in October, not sure when yet though.
Who's going to San Pedro Sula? I looked at the flights out of Philadelphia and they were definitely reasonable. Is anyone heading down?
Re: Who's going to San Pedro Sula? The flights from LAX are ridiculous, like $680.00 r/t vs $388.00 r/t from Philly according to sidestep.com
