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
