My flight arrives at 10pm on Thursday night and I'm renting a car. 3 of the 4 spots are already claimed, but if someone else is arriving around then and is staying in the general area of the venue, I can take you!

[reena_jenkins]

I get in at 10pm Thursday, as well. Let me check with Bess, and then possiblyI would like the last seat in your car? I should be able to let you know tomorow.

[bessyboo]

Good with me!

[bessyboo]

This is SUPER convenient for me if you can take Marisa to my place! And if people are not exhausted from travel they're welcome to hang out at my place for a while, since I'm sure it's close to your AirBNB :)

[shmaylor]

I know I'll be tired and crashing, and silverandblue has dog allergies. But I'll also have wingedwords and semperfiona in the car, who might or might not be interested in hang outs :D

[reena_jenkins]

In that case, I'd love to be seat #4 in the rental car. I think I'm gonna have 1 rolling suitcase and 1 slightly-overstuffed backpack full of Galaxy's Edge swag.

[shmaylor]

That works! You'll actually be seat #5 because I was forgetful. So it'll be more squished than I intended, but if you're good keeping your backpack on your lap we should be fine

Friday rides from airport

[lattice_frames]

Marianas & I are renting a car & will be getting in at 4pm on Friday, picking the car up at 4:30. We can definitely take 2 more and 3 would be very cozy. I don't know how much trunk space we will have yet, we're getting a 5 seat compact.

We will be staying near the venue. So anyone staying downtown/north-east would be an easy drop off.

i have a car!
availability: i don't think i have anything to do after 1pm on thursday, or until monday morning
seats: 4 (need to be a little friendly but you'll all have seat belts)

Hello! My flight gets in at 12:10 on Friday.
Looks like southwest is terminal 2 - according to the airport website!

My AirBNB near the venue has a 3pm checkin so If I could just hang out/travel with some cool podhumans I'm game for whatever!

[bessyboo]

If no one else can get you I can, you're more than welcome to chill at my place :)

[isweedan]

yespls

(also, DARCYDOG!)

[bessyboo]

He will be thrilled to see you :)

My flight arrives Thursday about 9:30 pm, Southwest Airlines, and i'm staying at the same AirBnB as shmaylor. Happy to share whatever sort of transport is available.

[shmaylor]

Damn it, I knew I forgot something! You sent me your flight info and everything /o\

I said I had 4 seats, but there's actually 5 and I was mostly leaving space for luggage. So that's you, me, silverandblue, wingedwords, and reena. We'll just squish in a little. It's a compact, not an economy, so it has a real trunk and we should be fine

[semperfiona]

Awesome, thank you.

We can figure out meeting-up via email. I'll send you my phone number as well.

[shmaylor]

Perfect! I'm on JetBlue, so we both come in though terminal 2, which should make it fairly simple

[paraka]

miss_marina95 and I are both arriving Friday around 1:30 and were planning on figuring out how to get in together.

[angelsaves]

want a ride from your local plague doctor?

[paraka]

That would be amazing! I can sent you our info after work :D

If anybody is around in the morning, I'd love a ride and/or a place to hangout! I don't mind hanging out at the airport for a few hours until I can get a ride since it's ridiculously early.
