jp1 Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 I'm seriously :D thinking about SES 2011 and thought I'd post it here, hoping to find someone else in the area interested. Trying to find someone (or more) to split the costs of accomodations and rental car to and from Denver to Aspen. Any Interest ? John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Hey John - A little info that you may find helpful: an easy way to get to Aspen without having to rent a car is to fly direct into Eagle (Vail) and then take one of several shuttles to Aspen. You don't really need a car in Aspen unless you are planning on staying somewhere further away from the mountains like Glendale. AA has direct flights to Eagle from JFK. It's kind of a long drive from Denver to Aspen, but not horrible. Flying into aspen direct is convenient when the weather permits it but if it doesn't it can ba a problem since the aspen airport is visuals only.

Surf Quebec Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Daniel is going to be in Aspen too, I'll be the only one not going.... :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp1 Posted October 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Jose & Stephane, Great hearing from you guys! Thanks Jose, I just looked into Eagle, actually would be more costly. I can do RT, Southwest (free luggage) nonstop from Philly to Denver for $340. Shuttle from Denver to Aspen is $100 each way. American (with funky times) RT, Newark to Eagle nonstop, $378 (+ extra for luggage). Shuttle from Eagle to Aspen $76 each way. United, RT, Newark to Eagle nonstop $440 (+ extra for luggage) + $76 Shuttle@ way. I figured if I were going to pay $200 for a shuttle and be without wheels (us hicks need wheels) I may as well check out a rental. Rental = $400, so if I can find one person it would pretty much be a wash like Angie said in her post, others would be a savings. Thanks for the info (I'll keep looking) good to know I won't really NEED wheels (although I can't imagine a week without them) hope to see you there if not somewhere on the Ice Coast.

LeeW Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Ahh, too bad I'm not going. I'm heading to the Northwest considering it's gonna be La Nina year which translate to high possibility of snow fall being broken again. Sorry fellas. PS how many here are Bristol local?

Since I'm planing on coming (overall) on Tuesday and leave on Sunday. Would be nice spend less time traveling, but I'm open since its $ matter. I'm still looking as well, St Moritz Lodge sounds great to me. What is your plans again? And I think there would be more deals on flights. Hope so.
