So I jumped on the computer and started searching flights and rooms. What are your suggestions on when a good time would be to book the trip. And don't be a smart arse and say once we win the Super. NO shite! I need to book it as early as possible, like today to get a decent rate on a flight ($249/round from Htown), but want to know for sure were going obviously. You know what Im saying here. Anyone with experience? Thanks!

I'd book as soon as you could. The earlier the better.

One thing I always recommend people is to fly into Kansas City for a much cheaper flight and then rent a car and drive 2.5-3 hours to Omaha. ESP if you're with a group in which you'd be having to take taxis everywhere once in the city, it's well worth it because then you would all not have to worry about the taxis and would all get to split the rental.

This is already late but if you still have a chance to do it... Do it. The time of your life if you are a baseball fan. It is the Mecca

I went in '09. We decided on Friday (pummeling of Arkansas) to go to the finals. Used priceline and got $50/night hotel. Outfield tickets were $10 each for general admission. I don't know about the new stadium, but they were not hard to find.

That's like saying "I gotta call that I have a coupon for $5 off my next $100 purchase"


Tickets are everywhere my man. One night in a hotel room will cost you double every single ticket you'll buy over the course of a week.

I wish someone would create a thread: "everything you need to know about your trip to Omaha"

I want to go but would love a trip advisor type post.
