I'm heading over there. Hoping to meet some more fellow flutterfags :).I talked with this real chill rarifag aswell, hoping to see him again. Talking to all those anons was a breath of fresh air from the usual arguing that goes on on this board.

>>41010686Honestly, if you came in with a laminated card like that, I'd let you
>>41010317IM NOT GOING TO GET CRYPTO SCAMMED AGAIN.I showed up at the hotel and some random guy offered to sunk my conk, if you catch my drift.Anyways, I walked into the Wawa to purchase some fuel (food) and some random guy with a bitcoin shirt offered to sell me some at a discount price! So I said, OK! Next thing I knew, I was being assraped in the back of the marevan (a Pontiac Aztec) while watching my wallet get drained by hackers.Might go back, it was kinda fun.
>>41010701Should've gotten marecoin.
>>41010704I bought thousands of them but they have no value!!! The man's name was "Purple Man" and he spoke in strange chinese riddles.
made it to one US con this year. I won't have the time/money for a second. if a marefair 3 happens, I'm there.
>>41010622>>41010624Agree
Nice thread dashie

semi new fag, what does one do at mare fair whats it like :0
>>41013687get a blowie behind the wawa
>>41013696I automatically assume that of every con/internet meet up but Im considering it as my first pony related con and was curious to what its like or if there like past ones i can see/read about thatd help me picture the atmoshere
>>41013687>>41013705It's very laid back and fun. Even when you're dealing with complete strangers it's like everyone already knows everyone and are great friends. You don't have to worry about if you're being too autistic because everyone's worried about that, and when everyone is autistic, then no one is. It's easy to talk to other people too. There's almost always going to be a panel that you'll be interested in at any given time.For me it was the best experience I've ever had. I won't be missing any future Mare Fairs for anything. If I get shot right before Mare Fair then I'll go and just deal with having a bullet in me for the whole con.
Got the transatlantic flight booked. Here I come, Mares!
>>41014047stop stalking me!
That Florida airs gonna have me moving different.
>>41011608you havent gone to either.
>>41014184I'm not the only one on your tail then-

>>41014457I never tried soju too, can i join?

>>41011662I need to see a faggot in the filly suit next mare fair or I'm not going. Full green cock displayed too.
How much spending money should I try to save up for food and vendor stuff as a poorfag?
>>41016295I would say 500 for good measure, eating out is 150, 50 for booze and 300 to go wild at the vendor hall..
SOOOO Anon Filly Plushy fucking when??? Can It be a group session, ANON SUITS only tho???
>>41016344>300>go wildnigga I spend that much at a single vendor
>>41016349where can I pick up an anon suit for cheap?
>>41011662I took your shot last year but this year can I get BUCKED by anon Mare with her strap on on??? NOT JOKING XD
>>41016295>>41016344You could easily only spend $50 - $75 on food, maybe less, if you eat solely Wawas
>>41016351Is that because you're buying a lot or the items being expensive?
>>41016375depends, plushfags can empty your wallet a lot faster than the soap merchantplus I always tip
>>41014936
>>41016364Will the cute Wawa mare be making my food?
bump for a fair mares
Today's the last day vendor apps are open
>>41010317yes
>>41017177I hope soapone is going. I hate paying for shipping costs.
>>41018239I feel ya, after enjoying using the soap bar I got last time Im feeling like grabbing one of each when I get to merch hall.
>>41018239i say he should be mandated to go. otherwise you niggers will stink up the place.
Another year, another unstable financial and professional situation that wouldn't allow me to visit a lovely convention full of like minded autistsI'll probably break down or get fired by then, and just move to Florida to live from my car. That's sure to work again, right?
>>41016402She will if you get a sponsor hoagie
>>41016295If push comes to shove you could buy a loaf of bread and some pb&j and subsist off of sandwiches the whole con, but saving enough to eat out with fellow anons is a more enjoyable experience overall.
>>41019253How the hell do you guys get time to eat out when there's so much stuff going on? Do you really just say "eh, guess I'll have to miss that shit"?
>>41019271The only eating out I did was breakfast, no panels going on that early Aside from running which was earlier than the breakfasts
>>41019145You'll die in the streets.
>>41019271The only eating out I did was deepthroating Anon cocks
>>41019271>eatingI think I ate less than 1000 calories worth of food over the five days I was at the last one. There's a lot of calories in liquor, dontcha know
>>41019145there's always spirits goers anon. even myself i saving some bits for the spirit ticket. its never too late to save anon if you want to go in person
>>41019665I know that, anon.Only question is how soon.My money's on some time before 2030.
>>41011833>>41013663>00sSo it's probably DV or mini-cassette, or standard SD card HD if it's from the later 00s. A bit late for TRVE VHS filming sadly, but hell, those old 480i camcorders are still outdated enough to have a fine nostalgic feel to them.If it's a sony, it might have the real night shot feature, from before it was gimped to death out of fear of peeping toms
>>41021050I got this bad boy, the camera itself was pretty cheap, however it came without any cables or batteries so I had to gather those separately, but I think it's was good idea as this lead me into discovering the "dummy batteries" as alternative to the type of batteries that normally go into it (the benefit is that with extra cable adapter fuckery I can connect it to any usb bank battery).The only problem now is getting a portable A/V recorder, as single mini dvd can only save up to 30m of footage, and most of those require a constant plug into the wall, however there are some options out there (that are little bit pricey), and it doesn't help that the camcorder is rejecting the mini dvds im giving it (sony is really butthurt about people using cheap dvds, but the panasonic stuff cost arm and a leg so screw that noise) and the one i tested that came with camera will take 8 minutes to "save" whatever is on it into .vob format that can be read by the vlc that THEN I can convert into usable h265 mp4.All this effort for a shitpost of filming people "just like it could have been done at first ponycon" back in 2011
>>41022222
mare
>>41019271Honestly I only go out to eat with others if I don't have much going on, or if I'm just that hungry and don't want to eat like a loner. At Mare Fair I only ate with friends on Thursday evening and Sunday morning. Personally I don't expect to eat out much when I expect too much going on to miss out on.
Are there lots of cute boys at marefair?
>>41021529I still have my Panasonic HDD camcorder (SDR-H40P) from back then, I should see if it still works
>>41022762no
>>41022780>noAs in not many cute femboy twinks to sleep with?
>>41022776im happy to see other Anons getting inspired to film the even in the retrokino style
>>41021529oooo, a classic candyham. It even has nightshot so you can do some night time filming. Doesn't seem to have any storage medium beyond DVD so you're kind of stuck there.
>>41023051I honestly didn't want to be a copy catter, even was considering bringing it to pass along to you, but the more that I think about it, the cooler and more pragmatic it seems: Lens covers automatically when shut off, nice zoooom, retrokino, compact, don't have to worry about it as much as a nicer cam............. ok, I'll do it
>>41023654LET'S GO! I do not know how far I will be able to apply my cinephile skills but I will be glad to see a fellow techboomer joining in the fun.>>41023495I may have found something that fits my needs but I will need to wait for the payday before ordering (bless payment plans). If that doesn't work, I guess I will look for some other solution as recording anything over 30 minutes will be impossible with the forced 8 minute break between feeding in the new dvd in middle of panels.
>>41023654>>41022776Looks like that one, you'll want to use the 4:3 filming mode whether you already planned to or not. I dug into those specs, and that thing's old enough it did widescreen by cropping, from 640x480 to 640x360.
>tfw someone shows up with an honest to celestia VHS camcorder and films panels and other things>on SLP mode (That's the 6 hour tape capacity mode for zoom zooms)
>>41023730>https://files.catbox.moe/gnqrvj.mp4Looks like mini dvd recording may be no-go, as trying to convert from it to mp4 gives me a lot of strange artifact, the above was also supposed to be way over the 1 minute long but only 22 seconds got recorded. Well, that doesn't matter, I will get the a/v recorder in two weeks to test that way.And yeah, I am aware the lenses are dirty shit, I need to lurk up tutorials on how to clean them without fucking them up (I've heard too many horror stories of cleaning going wrong to just jump into it).
>>41024086You're missing the vital step of deinterlacing. You're filming an interlaced format and not doing due processing. There were probably issues with the conversion as well.
>>41024140you mean de-soulifying
>>41024140there are many elements I suspect that could be wrong with my current process of recording, anywhere from damaged dvd, the software fuckery and camera itself being messed up at some point in the past.
>>41024221Worst comes to worst, you could work around the issue. That camera has s-video out. It wouldn't be all that portable, but piping the AV out to a USB capture card like a roxio and recording it with a laptop should work.
>>41011833>>41021050>>41021529holy shit did you niggers read my mind? i thought it would be funny to do just that but as an anon plus a hat. but the hat says anon (or faggot) on the side instead of press. then do interviews with people who want.
damn man why september
>>41024342I can't remember
>>41024368if I remember correctly its due to September being outside the usual school/tourist holidays times so renting hotel space and rooms is cheap while the weather is still mostly OK to hang out.
>>41024390That makes sense, thank you. unfortunately a student so im shit out of luck
>>41022792go find spec and fuck off

someone make a anonfilly launching panel, I want to see the lil shits get lobbed over and over again for an hour, I was thinking water balloon launcher, but maybe we could get even more creative
>>41030481Slingshots?
>>41028796
>>41030840anything is possible
>>41031726bump, also any suggestions on booking a flight? should I just do long term parking and round trip through expedia, do I need a car rental, should I book extra days in Orlando?
>>41032078You don't need a car rental. Way more hassle than it's worth. Even if you go out to other places beyond the hotel and Wawa there's still tons of stuff within walking distance. Getting from the airport to the hotel you can just take an Uber or the Marevan. And yeah you should at least try to fly in the day before the con and fly out the day after, but booking extra days couldn't hurt as long as you have the money. Plenty of people will be around before and after the con and you'll have more time to do stuff with them like go out to restaurants or just sit and chat.
>>41032078>booking a flightDomestic, Close by or transcontinental?International?Generally, try book the entire flight as one booking, to avoid getting rekt if one flight gets delayed or cancelled.If doing International, you'll have to choose which leg of the flight to do extra security checks, and doing it on the inbound US one usually means you have to recheck your luggage.Also check out all the available fare classes, sometimes the difference between cattle class and something a smidgen nicer such as Premium Economy is not that high, especially when factoring in luggage allowances and so on.
>>41030481I mean, the Kennedy Space Center is nearby.
>>41032700you think we could glue some fillies to a rocket?
>>41032703We should put some plushies in space. It'll almost certainly be possible at reasonable price this decade with a Starship rideshare mission.

>>41037331Just get a pizza from mcdonalds
man i hate mare fair, wolvan is there and i
>>41033988NOOOOOOOOO DON'T STRAND ME IN FLORIDAANYWHERE BUT FLORIDA I'LL EVEN GO TO OHIO
>>41011833>>41021529Small upgrade, I'm still figuring out the process of somehow connecting the video output to something else, there are some suggestion out there that could be possible to get cable to my phone and to use that as a recording storage but there are a lot of mix messages out there whenever it would even work in the first place so I will pin that for later (if that works, I will just need to spend extra 50 on cable/accessories instead of 200).The old phone power bank were too weak (giving only 5v output of power) so I needed to grab a new one, I'm stress testing it whole day and it looks like with the camera running non-stop I will be able to squeeze 5 hours of power out of it.I've solved the problem with the cheap mini dvds, basically I needed to put them inside the camera and wait for it to give me a generic response problem that it cant read the dvd, than shut it down and power it up (with dvd inside it) few times until it props me with the message that it can't record into it because its full. From there I just us the internal format function and it all works a-ok. I will be able to record the opening + few shorter moments here and there, but I will most likely stick to taking pictures with it (after all I can't break the physical storage limitation of 30 minutes per mini dvd).So far so good.
>>41038905I'll find you>What?That's what you'll hear the day of/on Mare Fair at the exact time it starts (7:00 AM EST, most likely). You'll get excited waitingfor me so I going to arrive shortly before you just so you won't cause yourself to wet yourself early or anything like that.I'll make sure to whisper it in your ear and then I'll disappear but you'll like, remember my face.It won't be a game to me but you'll think it is—you'll think it's very funny and original how I going over to you every five minutes or so asking to be interviewed by your "handycam" only to put a paper bag over my head and sign how to properly engage in intercourse with your special somepony.Even in sign language you'll feel insecure-you'll take the bait and you'll be running thinking I made fun of you or something but anyone who understands ASL will know that I was giving you quality footage...just that, and nothing esle
And get a Panasonic GH2 or I'll make fun of you for it.>Like what?Like, "How come you aren't using the hacked Panasonic GH2 you friggin' weirdo?"you'll buy the Panasonic GH2 and then somebody else'll make fun of you for being an "indie filmmaker" AKA you will get blaested unironically either way no matter what you do so watch your step
>>41040189The GH2 is rather outdated for indie filmmaking these days
filled out a panel application on how to shave if you find yourself in equestria"neckbeard management for your horse wife" and wrote a bunch of autistic stuff for the panel description.will be shaving on-stage to demonstrate how to maintain that handsome anon look without electricity or replaceable razors.might also cover some metallurgy on how to make one from scratch if time permits.I think it will be both classy and a lot of fun.
What's the cheapest/best way to stay nights at Orlando? Im planning arriving few days early from Europe to stave off the jet lag but my reservation starts Thursday at Wyndham resort. How much I need to worry about my kidneys in the cheapest inns they have in there?
>>41040994Why not extend your stay at the wyndham to start earlier? Its honestly pretty damn cheap and the mare fair group rate extends way past the event dates allowing you to get it as early as the 22nd.You'll also be able to get up to shenanigans with other early arriving anons.
>>41041002Anon, $119 per night isn't exactly cheap.
How late is too late to start booking? I'm trying to wait a while, I don't think the hotel would completely fill up but idrk
>>41041126You can cancel up to 72 hours before your stay at no cost, so it's best to book your hotel sooner rather than later.
>>41040944if the panel gets accepted you should see if Bon Bon can hold a camera to project the shaving process up on the big screen
Bought the base pass and i live only 3 hours away. If i cant afford a hotel gas for my car is cheaper but im still looking at hotel rooms because I do not want to put over a thousand miles on my car in a week. unless some anons want twinkontwink rooming together
>>41041278If you cum back from MF with your asshole unstretched, you're doing something wrong.
>>41041296Ill try my best thenI also plan on bringing a PSVita for the best of crunchy crispy 2012 video quality.
Is every nigga bringing a video camera? Do I need to wear my mask the whole time?
>>41041076Yeah its not extremely cheap or anything, but in terms of hotels, and especially cons hotels, it really isn't that bad. I think the bit of extra cost would be worth already being all settled in and nearby for any pre-con fun.I imagine if you are flying in from europe you're not exactly starved for the bit of extra money even if you do wanna keep it cheap.
>>41041351No exactly starved but don't really want throw money around unneededly. Saving up has been hard process. If I can save $100 from hotel stay it's $100 more for merch.
i am going to mare fair 2
>>41041320People will probably be filming in most areas yes, even in the first Mare Fair there's a number of vlogs uploaded which have people wandering around their their cameras filming everything.Up to you if that necessitates wearing a mask all the time, if you don't have say an identifiable name on your badge then you are pretty anonymous that way other than to say people who know what you look like.
>>41014457Ah, thank you anon, I was just thinking about that today
>>41041320If you had read the fine print you would know there is 110% chance of you appearing in front page of the wikifeet ^:)
>>41041320yea well not so much filming an hour long doc on it, cause the motherboard in my vita has started skipping beats and having repeat fatal crashes so the only things on the console that even work anymore are the preloaded apps (camera) and even that's a stretch.Besides, I find it more fun to appear in other people's videos somewhere than to be the main guy in my own.
>>41041320I'm going to roman salute at every camera I see with a big smile on my face
>>41041944
>>41041542Will you be around day 0? Haven't decided when to do it but that may be the best day.
>>41041320you VILL be doxed and you VILL be happy

>>41042218
>>41042088Day 0 meaning that Thursday? Ive got the room for Thursday to Monday, but I was already considering extending my stay by a day on both the front and back end, so I could do Wednesday if that's what you mean
>>41041320I have some bad news for you: literally everyone has a video camera in their pocket these days.
I got a room from Wednesday to Tuesday. Mare Men only, stallionfaggots will be shamed out of my room. it doesn't matter if you won't be there all days, but if any anon needs/wants to split a room I'm putting this offer out there. drop a burner email or some other form of communication if you're interested.
>>41042693>Mare Men onlythere will not be another mareman waiting for me in that room i can feel it
my first one, I'm excited.Hoping for degenerate fun with you autistic fucks. Bend over and let me make you my filly.
>>41042813fine, you aren't invited then
>>41042884NOOOO ANON PLEASE I DIDNT MEAN IT I WAS KIDDING I NEED MY MAREMEN!! I NEED THEM!!
Hi everyponyi am not going to mf
>>41042953You should be more positive, you get to go fight for americas greatest ally
>>41042218Im hopping the stickermule will make another deal on cheap normal stickers sometime next month or two, a sticker exchange with other Anons would be nice.
>>41010317I was kind of hesitant about going, but apparently there's a neat relatively large arcade some 15 minutes away by car. Doubt I'll be able to scrounge up enough Dosh to get down there, but maybe!
>>41042301tuesday is mare day at fallen oak horse rescue. I think its a 2-ish hour drive north from the convention?
>>41043561ooh, which one? ill go with if you dont mind
>>41043719I mean the odds of me making the trip are super low. The flight round trip is actually not that bad (383 Canadian before taxes, about 430 after). Hotels don't seem too pricey, neither. There's a chance, but it's low. Anyways, the arcade is called Arcade Monsters, and apparently they have a multiple locations in Florida. The one I'm interested in is just a 20 minute walk from the convention centre (the one on international drive). Apparently there's private Karaoke booths. I wonder if you could load them up with custom music, like pony songs? Hell if it could play Youtube videos, you could just use the sing-a-longs Hasbro provides on their youtube channel.Also according to their 3D virtual tour, they have a crane game with what appears to be a Pinkie Pie plush inside it. I think I spy an Applejack plush, too.
>>41043763dang, that flights cheaper than mine and im in country lol. ive got a open bed im offering to anons if ya need a room, id love to make an arcade run if you can make it
>>41043763>save the ponk>ignore the fluttersyou monster.
>>41043792I thought that might be Fluttershy, but I'm unsure. I think it's actually an Iron man plushie. You'll note it has a little clip on its head, and the iron man plushie to the right (above the grumpy Rei) also has a clip on its head. But if you look closely at the Applejack plushie (left side of the machine, buried, from this perspective looks like her nose is against the closest corner of the machine), it looks like there's a second Ponk. If you zoom in on the tag, I'm pretty sure that says "Pony", and there's definitely a Hasbro log.>>41043781Looking at a larger map, the flight is basically directly south from Ontario. Looks like it'd be a much longer flight from the Western part of the States/Canada.
>>41042301Yeah, day 0 as in Thursday.
Did we ever get thee update to fallen oaks auction? All I saw was like 3 posts (literally) in the ground
>>41043867 not much, but this enclosure is finishedhttps://pone.social/@FallenOak/112255255329685411
>>41043872There’s a horse behind this post, also thanks.
Where did most people stay during the last mare fair?
>>41043938NTA but to add to this question, did many of you extend your stay at Wyndham to do after-con stuff with fellow horsefuckers?
>>41043938I think most stayed at the WyndhamThis year I'm planning to stay Tuesday to Wednesday, flight tickets were about $1000 cheaper that way
>>41043967Yeah I already did extend until thursday. Planning to catch a couple of attractions while I'm there.
>>41043428there's a deal on holo stickers the next 4 days: https://www.stickermule.com/deals
>>41027924>only 8 hours left to downloadWell I finally did it, only browser that would let me was edgeVirustotal says it's safe, but I'm still scared to open it, but I'm so curious too
If I extend my stay for 2 days I can get a round trip ticket for just $210 right now. I'd be saving $60 on the flight but spending over $240 on the extra nights. I'm thinking 25th to the 1st if I do. How many people will be around for that extra time and how much stuff is there to do?
>>41043763>>41043781>>41044155>>41044202Just want to let you all and any other anons know that flight tickets are usually much more expensive this early. If you wait a couple months prices should drop a decent bit. Also don't cheap out and get a flight with frontier or spirit. An anon learned that the hard way last year.>but spending over $240 on the extra nightsAre you not room sharing with anyone? I'm sure you'd be able be able to find someone even for the extra days.
Think the TSA will let me through?
>>41044281As long as it's not an international flight.
>>41044242Yeah, just from a quick search on google it says I can save about $40 if I wait until mid June at least.https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/40771726/#40773453Remembered this post from a previous thread.>Are you not room sharing with anyone?No. Maybe after I've got some more cons under my belt or learn to quit being so stiff around others. This'll be my second con ever (free (You) if you can guess what my first was).
>>41044242>An anon learned that the hard way last yearQRD?
>>41044306https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/40363387/#40364898https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/40365743/#40365963
>>41044315Christ. I'm a bit nervous about getting the cheapest flight I could find now.
>>41044321As long as you don't go with a shitty airline it's fine.
>>41044295>No. Maybe after I've got some more cons under my belt or learn to quit being so stiff around othersIt may seem like a bit much, but I highly recommend pushing yourself to do it. Its a great way to meet some cool people, especially when you haven't been to many cons and met many yet. Also keeps the fun going even when back at your room, just in a more chill way>>41044306>>41044315 Beat me to itTo any anons still planning their flights, trust me when I say saving on the ticket isn't worth possibly losing the hotel costs and especially not worth the risk of missing the entire con. Maybe you get less merch, but experiencing the con is the important part.
>>41044326I think the issue for that Anon was more getting tickets on separate bookings, rather than the entire trip on a single bookingMost airlines are shit, the legacy carriers perhaps a bit less shit than the LCCs. However, if you book your travel legs on separate bookings/tickets, then all bets are off.>>41044242https://www.expedia.com/newsroom/air-travel-hacks-2024/Could probably have waited until late July/early August for the booking for that claimed "optimal" 60days before travel for International fare, but the price was about 30% less than the other offers, so might as well have booked it now. Gut feeling that it's highly unlikely that it goes even cheaper.https://www.expedia.com/newsroom/air-travel-hacks-2024/
>>41044451Also, if you can use for example Google flights and purchase the ticket directly from the airline. You have one less middle-man to deal with if things goes to shit. Getting ping-ponged between a travel agency and the airline is big bullshit when shit hits the fan. kiwi.com seems to be bad about that from what I've heard. Frontieranon got messed up by them and one guy going to Galacon got screwed over when his flight got cancelled and had to spend 11 hours in Lisbon. Kiwi just went sux to be you, too bad, no reinbursment or anything.
>>41011293I don't think I'm ever going to get over failing to get a Connoisseur badge. It brings me genuine emotional pain each time I think about it. It hasn't gotten any better.
>>41032946I really do dig the way this looks
Just checking, I filled out the MareSchizo donation travel form and didn't get any reply yet, should I have heard back yet?
>>41043867Kim from Fallen Oak is probably going to discuss in detail at a panel this year>>41044242Why not frontier or spirit?As long as you understand their restrictions and fees they can work just fine, I very recently used spirit and had a positive experience Also, any airline can screw you over with a cancelled flight or missed connection I'd rather advise spending a bit extra on nonstop if possible Also, book directly on the airline's website, using a third party booking site is risky if things go poorlyAnd don't use multiple airlines in one trip(The anon with the bad experience last year broke just about all these rules)
It'd be nice to avoid dealing with airplanes, but the drive is like, just a few hours too many on what I could handle in a day. For those who drove to the last mare fair, was it worth it over flying?And, in that same vein of questioning, is there anyone who lives generally in the southern US interested in carpooling in exchange for taking the wheel for a little bit of that time?
>>41044807>don't use multiple airlines in one tripAt first I thought you meant this as "use the same airline for the flight home" and was wondering why this would be a problem if you did otherwise but now I think you just mean to not use multiple airlines to go from A to B. I understand that right?
>>41044807>(The anon with the bad experience last year broke just about all these rules)Not only that, but it looks like he was flying in from New Zealand? Which is a hell of a distance to travel. I assume it'd be harder to get fucked over if you're flying in from North/South America.
>>41044807I do agree there was a lot more that anon had messed up on, but I'd still say frontier factored into. They had bought a new connecting flight and gotten screwed with that one too. Making sure to get a directly booked nonstop flight is definitely a big part, but I still think frontier and spirits policies are too shaky to take the risk with them unless its the only way you can afford a ticket.
>>41044815I think most anons going to a con long distance are gonna be able to fly without money complaints. I am lucky enough to live like 3 hours away (if i were following the speed limit lol) plus I'm a car guy so I'd rather drive over any other mode of transport. How long would the drive be for you anon?
>>41044815It was worth it for me, I had a new car that I hadn't really driven. I prefer driving myself, but I was making that one from Texas. Flights to Orlando are cheap as dirt, it was probably more expensive to drive honestly. Would I do it again? Maybe, I'll see how I feel, now that I'm moving, I'm going to spend more time driving my car. Probably gonna wait to book flights, I want to see if I can cop a nicer seat or my own row when flying. I also recently learned that the security line to get into Orlando can be a bitch, 3am on a Sunday and I still had to wait half an hour to get through.
>>41045059Kiwi is a flight booking website like expedia, I don't think he was actually a kiwi
>>41045262Yeah, that's probably a fair assessment lmao. I'm sitting at about 17 hours with no breaks. The longest I've done in a day is about 12, and that had me pretty wiped>>41045562Ah, I see, thinking about it, I'd have to go through quite a few tanks of gas, so I can see how it'd be more expensive. Oh well, it was worth considering at least. There is a restaurant I really love in the city I'd have to fly out of that I've been craving anyway
>>41045562I'm trans and like a big tourist from reddit here btw, so I hope you guys are fine with having trans folx at the con.
>>41045991Also I'm not even going for the horses tbdesu, im just want to go suck dicks behind the Wawa
>>41044807For me the only benefit I'd get is a nonstop flight shaving about half the flight time (Spirit and Frontier are the only nonstop options from my airport) and maybe $30 after their extra carry-on fees. Obviously I can't speak for everyone but there's no way I'm risking that, especially not for such little benefit.
>>41046029you wanna guzzle the prepre from my weewee behind the wawa?
>>41045562>I also recently learned that the security line to get into Orlando can be a bitchThe what now? Or are you just talking about airport security in general?
Forgot I had the name still saved in the field on this PC>>41046146At MCO, the line was insane when I was leaving. I've dealt with long ass security lines at airports before, but nothing on that level at 3am.
>>41044773Current status: we're workin' on it. Don't worry. Respond to the form email if you have any questions.
>>41044242>Are you not room sharing with anyone?No, since it's a bit hard thing to arrange on anonymous imageboard. I would be open to it though.
>>41046098While I do agree frontier and spirit aren't worth the risk, the anon also makes good points. Nonstop flights are safer since you can't miss a connection. In your case though I think the better option is to get the non-budget option. Just be sure to book directly, book all in one trip so the the first flight and connection is the same trip, and don't go for the shortest connection wait time. It may be nicer not having to wait, but a connection wait time means less chance to miss it if your initial flight is delayed.>>41046826Just make a post in the next mare fair thread saying you are looking for a roommate and give an burner email. Thats how I got my roommate last year and we got along well enough we're planning to room again this year.
i need to meet the fluttershy cosplay femanon and fuck like rabbits
>>41044889As long as everything is on the same booking, there is nothing inherently better or worse with flying with different airlines on the different legs. Code sharing is very common with the legacy carriers in order to provide coverage around the world without each individual airline having coverage (ie you fly the transatlantic leg with British Airways and then American Airways for the leg in the US)>>41046098Some of the disadvantage with limiting yourself to direct flights are that the route might be too thin, so availability sucks and tickets cost way more than a similar flight with layover costs. You might get really fucked if the airline cancels your flight for "reasons" and there's only one flight per day, so you get rebooked to next the flight the following day.>>41046872>don't go for the shortest connection wait timeIf the ticket is offered that way, the airline have to "make it work". However, if it looks totally unrealistic you might as well save yourself the hassle.>>41045562>had to wait half an hour to get through.Might be long for 3 am, but maybe the were just short on staff, there were pretty much no queues at all when I left last year around 10 am. But a 30 min wait for security is pretty ordinary. I think it took 1 hour queueing at JFK for the transfer, and about 2 hours back in 2022 at Schiphol, just after coff restrictions were lifted, so every airport had staffing shortages for security personnel. They had this tent outside to accomodate the queue.
