I am going to be a single on this but would be willing to share a room. Is there anyway to indicate that on the request?

I maybe in the same boat. Went to the cyclone travel site and for a 1 person room it's 1,100 dollars

Discussion for CF members: Why wouldn't you have the package extend to the weekend instead of the weekdays before? Then you don't need to contend with christmas travel plans nor fight needing more days off work.

It is infinitely more fun to be in town in the days leading up to the bowl game than the days after.

Nice Chevy!

Orbitz has the Westin at $392 per night for Dec 26-29 and $444 for Dec 27-29.

Sounds like you guys are getting a great deal.

I'm not the one that sets prices but like this have looked around. Direct out of DSM. Location of hotel. Ground transpiration in San Antonio. I feel like this is a pretty good deal. We can't do it for much cheaper. San Antonio is just an expensive place in general.

Obviously it is great that you do this but I don't think the marketing of it being the chevy to the cadillac was well thought out since the CF one is $100 less than the ISU one.

Sounds like a great deal to me. Looks like the CF package does all the work for you. Even rides to the pep rally.

The CF package looks like it actually includes more features.

I don't see where you are getting this. I'm glad Chris put this together because it allows for additional fans to make the trip, but the packages are the same.

I made the decision to put the hotel on the river walk and charge a little more. That's really the only thing going on in San Antonio. To go outside of that area seemed foolish to me.

Again, I don't set the prices. That's all through the EB Sports. I told them to make it as cheap as possible. This actually came in lower than I thought it would.

Good choice. It would be foolish for CF to stay anywhere but the Riverwalk. The Westin is a fantastic location.

I'm always confused on how this works if you want to go with a small group. Does every pay $1500 in the group, and then they all get their own hotel room? Or is there a way to split the hotel costs and put them in the same room?

Chris, is the Pep Rally transportation something valued-added that is not provided in other options?

It's not difficult to plan and book this trip by yourself. So if you don't like the prices listed, go it yourself. No need to complain about what they have offered. If it's too expensive, go book your own trip.

These bowl packages make me realize how weird of a traveler I am. I spend half of trips driving around town looking at unique neighborhoods and taking pictures of buildings.
