Hello All,

  

 I have booked my flights for the Fly-In, but I  have a minor problem, so am looking for a little 'local' advice.

  

 I will be arriving at Austin-Bergstrom  International Airport, but not until 22:39hrs on Wednesday September  19th.

 My 'problem' is how to then get to  Fredericksburg.

  

 It seems as though if I pick up a rental car at  Austin, a $250 drop-off fee will be added for returning it in  Fredericksburg.

  

 So, it would seem that the only viable option  will be to get a cab from Austin to Fredericksburg.

 Although this may seem expensive, it may work out  cheaper than renting a car.

  

 My question is whether anyone can give me an  indication of the cost of the cab ride.

 I can then decide what to do!

  

 Of course, if I do rent a car, I can probably  help anyone else who has a similar 'problem' when arriving on the Thursday  

  

 Very Best Regards,

 Barry

Hi Mason,

  

 That really is most kind of you, but my flight will be  from London-Heathrow to Chicago, then direct to Austin.

  

 I wanted to come over before the Thursday, so I could  get photos etc as the Commanders arrive.

 I've found in previous years that they are often  parked so close together it is difficult to get a good angle for the  photos.

 This way, I can get some good shots before they are  towed to the parking area.

  

 I do really seriously appreciate your offer  though.

  

 Looking forward to meeting you at long  last!

  

 Very Best Regards,

 Barry

Hi Barry,  

   

My situation is that I cannot make early reservations because of business pressure, which means it’s not certain that I would be there, but my plan was to travel to Austin, rent a car for the round trip, because I will be flying out of Austin back to Los Angeles again. If that happens, you are more than welcome to travel with me either or both of the legs between Austing and Fredericksburg. The kicker is that I won’t know for sure that I will be able to make the trip until the first week of September. So, if by that time you are still without options, and I am able to make the trip, you are welcome to join me.  

   

Thanks  

   

Nico
