ARGH!!!!!

A "Ding" (Southwest super-cheap fare) just came through from here to Hartford, both for the rest of December and for January.

This would make it feasible for me to fly out to defend this week or next.

But the tickets have to be bought by 2 pm CST today.

What should I do?

(I'm tempted to buy for next weekend (the weekend of the 15th) because you can always cancel the tickets at no penalty - you just end up with that much $$ credit from SWA that you can use for later flights.)

GAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Um, the 15th is *two* weeks from now. Next weekend is the 9th, which is Bergental Yule.

Personally, I'd go in two weeks - more time to prepare and practice. But definitely get it out of the way.

this current weekend is almost over, therefore the 9th is this weekend. ;^)

The catch is that I haven't cleared such scheduling with my committee. I'm about to send them all panicked e-mails and hope that they can all do it.

Call the ones you can contact that way.

Can you buy now and then change times or dates?

[alphasarah.livejournal.com]

Yes, and I'm going to do so right before the offer expires.

Calling not so useful unless I can call all... e-mail will do.
