Most important thing though, we want to make sure everyone has an amazing time.

Flights work out to $334-00 after you add in the airport tax etc.  Not bad.  You guys getting a deal for accomodation at the venue?

I believe it will be around $140-160 a night for SS players. Need to wait for confirmation though.
If you look around you can find cheaper.  :)

Flights are MAD cheap atm. Heres a screen grab from Air New Zealands website. If we leave on the Friday night it wont even cost us $300 if we get food and movies.

Post by: Lennysaurus on March 21, 2011, 02:17:09 PM
You guys have to add the airport tax to those flights which will be another 150 at least.

NZ tax is like 50. Aus is around 150. it should still be under or around 300 if you do the plain seat + bag

Post by: [NIUE] BIRRY WONG on March 21, 2011, 02:54:09 PM
They include departure tax in ticket prices now if you're leaving from Auckland airport. Auckland airport changed to this system back in 2008. Anywhere else in the country its an extra $25. Not sure where you got the $150 from Len.

Basically, those prices are it.
Title: Re: [Melb Event] Shadowloo Showdown 2k11: June 25th-26th
Post by: [NIUE] BIRRY WONG on March 21, 2011, 02:58:51 PM
Upon researching it looks like that since July last year, departure tax is now included in ALL ticket prices across the country. So noone has to worry about it now at all.
Title: Re: [Melb Event] Shadowloo Showdown 2k11: June 25th-26th
Post by: zos'la on March 21, 2011, 03:20:16 PM
Yup, last year when I went over the prices all included tax... so I also didn't know what that $150 is from... xD

Post by: CaptainHook on March 21, 2011, 03:29:47 PM
If you actually click an option on that page bill showed it will add airport tax etc into the price..

So:

Title: Re: [Melb Event] Shadowloo Showdown 2k11: June 25th-26th
Post by: [NIUE] BIRRY WONG on March 21, 2011, 03:32:31 PM
If they're going to make it compulsory to include that cost in ticket prices, then they should be showing that shit up front goddammit. But that makes sense as to where Lenny pulled the $150 from. Fucking last time i read a government website and believe it.

Anyway, thats still only $396 if you include food and a movie, and like $60 less if you just take seat+bag. Which is still pretty damn affordable.

I reckon we do this shit. Who else is keen?

Like, ACTUALLY keen. Not Dave "Say your keen and then don't say anything else until after the thing has finished" Keen.

The "fine" print at the bottom of the page:

QuoteFares exclude applicable airport & government costs, which are shown after fares are selected in the Total Cost panel on this page. Additional costs cannot be paid with Airpoints Dollars. Bookings are not complete or accepted by Air New Zealand until payment has been received and a booking reference number has been issued.

AirNZ is actually one of the nicer airlines to fly on imo. Jet star is fucking ass. Pacific Blue (who are basically Jet Star but with different uniforms) is also fucking ass.

Singapore Airlines is the best one imo.

A few years ago i had a great flight with Emirates.. was way more room and comfort than the AirNZ flight i had last month..
Which was fine itself. Dunno if the airline's still good though. Flight was $600 return to Sydney so might be part of it..

But yeah AirNZ is up there.

anywaaaaay........

And for future reference, im not gonna bother doing any of this shit when im on an Early shift at work. Missing 'fine print' is a pretty scrub error tbh. Moreso going and reading something and convincing yourself you are right, when in fact you just havent read the important part of the fucking website.

FML.

Well you were kinda right Bill, you don't pay airport tax at the terminal here anymore (i think we were one of the last countries still doing that..?)
Its just the price on the website didn't include that cost, which is for sure misleading. (aka marketing :P)

p.p.s if you want real anger, put your mouse over the "details" of the airport/govt tax.





eg Passenger movement charge?? Is that like a charge for Lenny's bowel movements while at the airport?.. cause i can understand that.. but otherwise.. WTF.

Lol.

Post by: Lennysaurus on March 21, 2011, 04:55:04 PM
I am def keen, and was keen to book tickets a couple of weeks ago, till I got bent over by unexpected bills (no not the Birry Wong kind!).

In 3 weeks, provided the prices remain as they are, I'd be pretty keen.  I would much rather fly over Sat Morning, and come back Sun night to skimp on accomodation costs etc, but ittt looks like that might end up more pricey.

Id personally prefer not to go straight from the airport to the tourney tbh. Thats the only reason I was looking at Friday. Doesn't mean we all can't do separate things.

OK since I'm way too poor and I should be doing uni work and shit, my plan is to win mvc3 at our qualifier for BAM (if we have one) and go over there and get a good placing. Then my sponsors might want to send me to SS2k11. Yeah this'll work.

After a talk with Lenny i just had i might be keen.. like Len it depends how the next few weeks pan out. I have some friends i could prob stay with etc and
as Bill said, we can each do our own thing anyway if needed.

So about $340-00 via Air NZ with 1 bag.  I reckon if we are gonna go from Friday to Monday, we will want to take a bag so we can have enough fresh clother, plus joysticks and shit.

Just looking at the accomodation end of it.

For those that don't care, you can stay in a hostel for roughly $30 per night.  If there are a few of us, we can book a room to us so we dont have to share with weirdo's.  So for Friday, Saturday, and then Sunday night we are looking at roughly $100.

So not including food it'll be roughly $440.00.  Not too bad I reckon.

Just need to figure out how much the entry is and our peeps can sort it out!

Still not sure what we will be charging this year. Last year was $40 entry, plus $10 for each game you entered (Which goes to the pot).
We hope to have an early bird fee soon and if possible drop the price. Venues are expensive as hell here in the Melbourne CBD, so as you can imagine, we would need close to 200 players just to cover the venue costs.

Really hoping next year we can get some corporate sponsors on board and only have to charge $20-30 a player.

Post by: EXC355UM on March 22, 2011, 06:08:47 PM
I think I was told it was like $129-139 a night or something. Probably best to call, plus the early you do, the less you pay.
You can have a room with 2 twins and a fold out couch, or a double bed and fold out couch.

So 3-4 people a room, which $30-40 a night per person. Not like you will be spending much time in the rooms anyway. :P

I've got June 16/18/20 then randomly my last exam is on the 27th at 9am :( My 3 ssf4 heroes are going as well, Tokido, Momochi and Uryo.

So where will I be? In my room watching the stream being sad that I can't be there and then failing my exam the next day anyway 8)

Pacific Blue. Leave on Friday 24th, return Monday 27th.

$306 + Airport tax i assume.

Extra $20 each way if youre not just taking carry on luggage, but if a few of us go we can prob just lump our sticks and shit in one bag and rock carry on for the rest.

Im gonna book this TODAY at some point. Just posting it here to try and convince any of you assholes who are on the fence.

Just to avoid any confusion, OHN passed over the seeding points and not the actually plane ticket to vegas. So you get points for EVO and not the flight.
Had we known earlier we may have been able to budget for a flight, but we wasted all the cash on players, venue, etc. :P

I was saying if I had to take an educated guess it would be Jsculls since he said he was paid up and this name was the only New Zealand name I didn't recognise. I doubt it would be MC because you'd be seeing it all over fb.
