Hey Texas Jaycees I just saw were ORLANDO from ANYWHERE is ON SALE!!!

As I was surfing the web and looking at the ticket prices from Sept 23-27 I saw some real bargains.
HOWEVER John reminded me to look at the Luggage Requirements and some that seemed a bargain were not after $15 for the 1st bag and $25 for the 2nd bag and they now have to be lighter.

So when you shop for your Orlando airfare make sure you are getting the best deal over all!
I found for us here in the Metroplex area that would be Southwest airlines as you can check 2 bags and carry on up to 2 small pieces.  www.iflyswa.com

ALL COMPETITORS need to be prepared to be IN ORLANDO WEDNESDAY Sept 23rd NO LATER THAN 6PM for REGISTRATION!  Judges Orientation is Thursday morning.
Opening Ceremonies are Thursday 7pm
