Hey Chris,

yeah that sounds awesome... Im flying to LA first for a few days then to New Orleans and i'll stay on 3 extra days in New york (yes in the freezing cold) and then fly to San Fran then back home! are you from Australia? Who did you book your flights through? I found a good deal on webjet but now that i have looked them up again they have all changed... dont know if its cheaper to do it online or thru a travel agent!

Hey,
Just got my flights booked then. 4 out of 5 flights are with Qantas, the other is domestic with United(2 stop overs on the way over and 1 on return).
I booked mine through Expedia. I looked at Webjet, but didn't like the results that were coming up. My flights all up $1500...! I thought that was good.

Btw.....i live in Sydney, 20mins from the city and desperately want to get away Smiler

Hi all,

My girlfriend and I are going on this trip. I cant believe how close it is. Really can't wait.

We have all our flights booked.

Our plans are for a few days in LA, before flying to NO, I think we are there a day or two before the tour. Then we have a couple days in NY after the trip before heading north into Canada.

Yeah, we are staying in the recommended accommodation in NO, I am sure there will plenty of the tour people doing that.

In LA we are staying at Kawada Hotel, not sure of the address (dont have my details on me).
