LeakyCon 2009? I am wanting to, but i can't seem to book flights this far in advance! Its soooooo anoying. And not to mention the price of flights from the UK. But i am determined to go. I am going to Accio 08, but i want to go leakycon since i cant go to Terminus. If anyone is from the UK and going to Leakycon 09, please let me know where you get your flights from please!
Also im hoping accommodation can be booked through the leakycon site cos booking thru the actual hotels site costs 3000 odd dollars. and im like 'what the heck!' lol anyway, anyone going?

I'm going but I live in New York so can't help with airline problems. You're right about hotel prices in the Boston area! dry.gif

Thanks Richard! My daughter has friends who work in Boston and I may be able to get more information and references as the date gets closer.

I think I might be able to go. Living in New England and all. I was planning on going to a Red Sox game this summer, but I think I'll save my money to see Leaky in 2009.

I'd like to go, but I'll have to decide as the date gets closer. I live on the west coast of the US right now, but might be moving to the east coast this year, so at least I'd be closer. I am planning on going to at least one day of Terminus this year - I'm hoping to convince my dad to come with me.

cry.gif I want to go!!! cry.gif

But there are so many factors as of right now that might get in the way. Like school, lack of money, lack of permission ... though if I get the first two out of the way, the third won't be a problem, cuz I'll go no matter what my parents say, I am 18 after all.

I've never been to an HP convention, and I want my first to be with yall. I want to meet you! Touch you! Smell you! ... Ok, that sounds weird, lol, but really, I want to meet some of you badly. biggrin.gif

We'll see. I'm really going to try to go. It'd be cool if some of us could get together and maybe get the same hotel or something, maybe even share the expenses ... cuz I mean, it is expensive, and some of us aren't rich. smile.gif

*sigh* Only time will tell. unsure.gif

I live in England. I am going to the convention in Oxford this year, but i wanted to go Leakycon cos its Leaky, come on! I love em! And it might well be the last decent convention, who knows, or at least the only one Leaky do personally! Hope ur exams go well!
