I remember talking about this sometime last year when the decision was made to host Nats in Hawaii. There were supposed to be special University discounted airline fares.
If folks don't mind, share with us your experience. How much and from where.
Thanks

I'm with you there, Gail! I don't intend to actually eat much in the cafeteria. Maybe breakfast. I just considered it part of the room cost (total per person $35/night, room & board), and will blow that off.
Bottom line: it IS more expensive than we were led to believe. I had hoped to bring my husband and son along, but almost $1800 in airfare alone was too much. I had originally decided not to go, but my teammates talked me into going, and my husband encouraged me to go (should I be suspicious?).
