Next Convention that R.A.C. will invade

AnimeExpo 2001

Long Beach, CA

Thursday, July 5 - Sunday, July 8

 

Last updated: Jun. 24, 2001

 

Hotel cost (per person): $66.24

 

 

Flight Info

From Oakland to LAX: (Jul. 5) SouthWest flight 311, departing at 10:00am and arriving at 11:10am

From LAX to Oakland: (Jul. 8) SouthWest flight 1225, departing at 4:30pm and arriving at 5:40pm

 

We've got two rooms reserved at the Long Beach Hyatt Hotel for three nights at $135.00 per night.  The price per person will be based on the number of people who will be staying.  To get to the convention, we will be flying from the Oakland Airport   to the Los Angeles Airport (LAX) and then taking a shuttle to the Hyatt Hotel in Long Beach (the ride is approximately 30 minutes).  When we leave the convention to come back home, we'll be doing the same thing, but in reverse (taking a shuttle to LAX and flying back to the Oakland Airport).

We will be making flight reservations with SouthWest Airlines. If you are getting to the convention by some other way, but still want to stay in our hotel rooms, LET US KNOW!

Shuttle service from LAX to the hotel will cost about $15.00 per person for a one way trip.  When you want a ride back, you will have to call to make reservations.  SuperShuttle will be the carrier.

 

Here's how the money thing is going to work

Payments for hotel cost can be in check, money order, or cash.  If writing a check or money order, please make it out to Deborah Brown.  There are two ways to get your money to her...

1) give the money to me, and I will get it to her. I'll be on campus this Tuesday (Jun. 26) for our room test in H-117 from 12-7pm, and on Thursday for our official showing if all goes well on Tuesday (time TBA).

2) you can give it directly to her. She is on campus from 9:30-10:00am Monday-Thursday at the Student Union building, and she'll be at the room test from 12-1pm. You can also drop by her work (at Suncoast Video in the SunValley Mall) on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 1:30pm and 10:00pm.

 

The hotel rooms in the Hyatt each have 2 double beds in them.  The Long Beach Hyatt hotel is were the convention will be held (partially...the rest will be in the convention center that is connected to the hotel).

If you want to come along, please send us an email at [email protected]
