Ok everybody, Dragon*Con '09 is 10 days away!
Pricing for the Memberships to Dragon*Con 2009 is as follows:
* $100
Hotel prices:
Range on average at about $185 per night. (All host hotels are booked full as of now, however continue calling them to see if they might have a room open up and make sure to ask for the Dragon*Con rate. Don't bother trying to book online they will all show as full, you'll have better luck on the phone with a rep.)
Post where you're staying and if you have room to share for other members looking.
MARTA
For those staying near the airport and riding the MARTA into downtown
(Most hotels have a free shuttle to the airport, which is where the MARTA station is located)
Atlanta boasts the second-highest rated public transportation system in North America - The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority, MARTA - The one-way MARTA fare anywhere on the system is still $1.75. The MARTA rail system shuts down from c. 1:00 a.m. - 5:00 a.m. for track inspection and maintenance, so plan to take alternate transportation to downtown (hotel shuttle, cab, rental car) if you're arriving or departing in the wee hours of the morning.
Here is a link to the MARTA rail map. Airport hotel folks will get on at the Airport Station - labeled S7 on the map, located towards the bottom, and get off at the Peachtree Station - labeled N1 on the map.
Dealers Room and Exhibit Hall
In the Dealers Room, you can shop through one of the largest assortments of original crafts, medieval arms and artifacts, posters, models, games and accessories, Silver and Golden Age comics, Japanese Animation merchandise and hardback and paperback books to be found in the world.
