Sure.  Where do you guys want to sit?  I can put a reservation in for the logins, just confirm me your logins so I have them right.

Isn't it always where do you NOT want to sit?

- not near the wash-rooms (smell)
- not in the middle of an isle (difficult to move have to step over stuff)
- not beside the stage speakers or loud vendors (loud)
- not right at the doors were there is high traffic

LOL can tell you haven't been in a while.  Only your last point is really applicable now.  The rest is handled by the venue we have - lots of room, washrooms/showers well outside the area, and the speakers are on the opposite side of the participants, same with sponsors.

So lots of options :D

I think roughly where I always sit, I can take the end of the row?

Hey if you look on the seating map there is Row #s.  Just tell me what Row and I'll make it happen.

For fun I did the math with newleaf.. They only have 1 flight each of those weeks on the start and end of frag but also at the END of the day and early the last day.

$258.00 CAD round trip, one small checked bag $0

But you can't put a price tag on the best time August 4-7th you will have this year!

I guess.... It isn't much cheaper than westjets cheapest at $290... Also look at the times.. would miss most of the first day and the last day. At least with westjet I could fly in earlier / later.

Apparently to get double digit costs you have to be the first to book or something..

I don't think double-digit cost flights to Edmonton are possible.  I think they were advertising that as the price the airline charges before all the fees are added.  I'm pretty sure there's more than a hundred added on in fees.

Also, I'm not too sold on NewLeaf.  Like, the flights are supposed to be cheaper, but they're only barely; they have a terrible schedule; and all those things you take for granted (having any amount of luggage, for instance) costs extra.
Prayin' for a 20!

My expectation is they are selling tickets the airlines find it harder to fill...
