MSU Baseball in Hawaii...

Hawaii Trip

vhdawg - this trip is for you.

 

[DerHntr]

Airfare, baseball tickets, and optional excursions are not included

so you still have to line up your own tickets too? wow. not like i would be going to the game if i was in hawaii but you would think they would throw the tickets in the package. maybe it's because of the travel agent.

....I will say without hesitation that the quickest way to break the football streak would be for MSU to schedule a game in Hawaii.

I think I'm not going on the trip I had planned.

F'ing fuel costs.

 

[DerHntr]

i have been riding the ol' bike to work to save gas but there isn't much you can do when it comes to long trips. you either pay or you just don't go.

i am thinking about buying a moped. i am already married so i don't have to worry about the ramifications of showing up on a moped and chicks seeing me.

because it was too expensive? Seems like it was our time to represent the SEC in the Maui Classic this year but LT screwed us over somehow.

Looks like I'm in more than likely, arrangements have been made for lodging. Relatively cheap air fare has been found, for a non-stop flight from Atlanta at that. check out some of the travel sites, its almost 9 months off..with the way gas is going might be good to lock in at rate now.

I don't have any desire to go HI.

unlucky bastard that sits next to me.

</p>but Polk was more powerful than LT, and I'm assuming he's the one lined this trip up for us.

since the advent of the new generation of sleeping pills. That might make it better.

I've been three times.
Non-stop from ATL to Hawaii. Insane.
Non-stop from Dallas to Hawaii. Long trip and coach seats will still make you stir crazy.
Split the trip into 2 legs. ATL to LAX ... get off the plane, stretch your legs, and make a connection flight to Hawaii. Much better and tolerable trip. On the return trip take the Red-eye that leaves Hawaii at 11 p.m and arrives at LAX at 6 a.m. I slept the entire Hawaii-LAX leg. Absolutely the best.

If you go, I rank Kauai>Maui>Oahu. You can take boat trips to the other islands but the best option is puddle-jumpers.

 

[ScoobaDawg]

Im looking at doing the non-stop from atl to Hawaii, since thats the only one that gets you there in the afternoon of the 2nd (2:30'ish) compared to others that would be near midnight.
Return thinking HNL to Seattle to ATL, latest return for same price..and would prefer to stay away from lax

I'd have been willing to trade a kidney for one good drag off a cig on the return trip home. I also love how they always say "This is a non-smoking flight" as if there is such thing as a "smoking flight".

 

[Porkchop.sixpack]

smokers only flights for a premium on heavily traveled routes. Becha it would be popular.

 

[saltybulldog]

I imagine that if a plane full of smokers went down the anit-tobacco groups could make a commercial out of it. Fear Factor could do a show on seeing how long a non-smoker could last in a smoker plane.

Hilton Hawaiian village is pretty nice, but the diamond head tower is pretty bland. The Rainbow tower is much nicer. The flight isn't too bad if you can sleep on planes...I flew out first class due to an upgrade during the outbound flight, but the return flight in coach wasn't bad...at least not after a couple mai-tais at dinner and an ambien as soon as buckled my seat belt. I took a non-stop from houston...8.5 hours there...about 7.5 back.

it has already been proposed by a wealthy entrepreneur in Germany. This story is from late 06 and the airline was supposed to start offering flights in spring of 07, but I'm guessing it never got off the ground since I can't find any more recent stories.
