Chicago Creation 09

What's the typical schedule like--how early on Friday do things typically start and how late on Sunday do they go. I'm trying to figure out travel plans...

Friday things tend to open up around noon. Though I think the registration/check-in can start as early as 9:00. Sunday, things tend to go til 5 or 6. If you're flying in, book a late flight back to make sure you don't miss anything by needing to leave early or even a Monday morning flight if you can do that. Lots of people tend to go out for one last dinner Sunday night after everything's over, too.

If it helps, I am driving in from Ohio and it is about a 4 hour drive from where I live. We will be coming in Thursday night around 10 and we will leave Monday morning. It was so nice this past year to have Sunday night to look over pictures and just relax before having to head home. Last year registration was around noon on Friday, that is why we decided to come in Thursday night.

Just called and booked my rooms. I don't know how many they have left, but I was upgraded to a deluxe room for both rooms for the same discount price of $106. So if anyone hasn't called yet, call today and book and see if you can get one of those.

Ok... I have to ask - what makes a room "deluxe"?

Lol, ran out a long time ago.... Totally did not cheat was just thinking of how wonderful they are.... Total YUMMO....

I asked the same question and she said the rooms were bigger. I'll believe it when I see it. I am just happy I got it for the same price.

I noticed that the rooms don't have wireless capability.

Yes they do. At least they did. I have used my wireless connection for the past two years there. You have to pay for it of course.

They say $9.95 for high speed internet daily access. I looked all over the hotel site for free wireless.

Not sure why they don't say wireless.. Unless something drastic has changed since August, it is $9.95 for the high speed internet access and it is wireless. Some rooms have wire connections as well, but I didn't need that since I had the wireless.

I was just going to say that...

Free to register, all you get is an email newsletter but you can turn that off again. So no reason to pay for the service.

Hi everyone! I just got the Creation email and I'm thinking about coming out to this Con. I'm out on the East Coast. Joe is the last actor from the main Atlantis team I need a picture with.
