It really is a ridiculously expensive con. I got a deal on airfare for $398. I'm in Florida and usually it's $550 for cheap airfare to Vancouver. I didn't get the least expensive hotel room as I booked late so I think it will be $707 when converted to US...but I'm spitting that.
And, the tickets are fricking ridiculous at $569 for gold and $499 for preferred.
So just for tickets, hotel and airfare you are talking $1321.00!!! Compare that to $614.00 for tickets, hotel and air for DragonCon.
*sigh* Yeah...Cretin sucks. And, I'm so bending over for them... *evil grin*
BTW...Amanda's little get together went for $901.50 a person!!! Whoa! http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=390038705003
