I wanted to do this to organize a little better, and not many of you have indicated when you're arriving.
Vicky and I will arrive 2/1 at MoBay on USAirways Flt #985 out of Charlotte NC and expect to get to the resort around 2:30 if everything goes as planned. We'll stay through Sunday night for the Superbowl & fly back Monday the 6th on USAirways Flt # 834 (3:15pm).
We convinced our good friends Skip and Trish Woolwine to join us for the fun, frivolity and Featitude this year, so give em a fine Feat Fan Irie welcome when you meet them!

;D Yo TT, me (Greg) and farmgirl (Susan) will be going for the 2nd weekend to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. This is the first time for us to go to a Feat Fan Excursion and also Jamaica for that matter. We're getting crazy like a couple of little kids waiting for Santa to come down the chimney!! We will be arriving on the same flight as you and Vickie, USA #985 from Charlotte on Wednesday 2/1. It will sure help to travel with a couple of experienced Excursionists, so it'd be a hoot to meet the two of you before we depart Charlotte. A long time ago I signed up on the FeatFan Excursion email list, but haven't received anything. Whatever info is available please email to me - gjmillington@yahoo.com. Our departure is on Sunday, 2/5 USA flight #1214.

Mac, Also arriving 2/1 and I'm on the same Charlotte flight as you. I'm feeling cocktails at the airport, and definitely on the plane! I'm leaving on Sunday though. With my luck the Patriots will be in the Superbowl again and I'll miss it. Rollin' Mark

Based on up to date correspondence from Amanda at Cruisin, the two weekenders (full package) apparently have this show and transport included in their cost. All others will need to pay to attend @ $30 each. That's not out of line, I'd say, since this event is off site at a nearby commercial establishment. Vicky and I are up for that one!

Hoy all! I arrive 2/1 United #986 out of Chicago, arrives: 1:32 PM. My friend Jon Jader will be joining me, he's a virgin Live-featster but a longtime fan of the blues and loves 'Representing the Mambo'. Of course when ever we hang out he hears Feat from my collection, which is pretty vast. I'm certain that this will be the first of many live Feat shows for Jon. We both have to get back for work on Monday so we head out Sunday afternoon at 3pm. Looking forward to seeing you all, and getting my feet in the warm sand See you soon! -Laurie from MN (formerly from NJ)

Scarlett and Harvey will be arriving on Tuesday night 1/31 on American Airlines, getting to the airport around 8 PM. We'll probably have to meet y'all at the far bar!! We leave on Sunday 2/5. We reserved VIP tickets for the Margaritaville concert on 2/1. See ya on the beach! Can't wait!! Everyone have a safe hassle-free trip. Scarlett

Helen and I are flying Delta from Atlanta at 8:40 AM on 1/31 (Tuesday). This is identified in my papers as a codeshare flight, operated by Air Jamaica, flight #8858. I suspect this is the same flight as Delta #683, as the flight back -- operated by Delta at 2:23 PM -- is Delta #682. That's the one Helen and I are taking on Sunday. We haven't had time to become Seattle fans, yet ... but my feeling is a team with only one wide receiver as it's source of offense (not that Nick Goings isn't going to get a few yards) is going to leave the Northwest feeling pretty sad. Looks to me like Pittsburg and Seattle in the Superbowl (while I'm flying home ... should have done the Jet Blue thing again, but didn't want to chance another cancelled flight and being stuck in New York an extra night).
So ... from what has been posted so far, it looks like we will be looking for Mark and Sally. We'll promise to try to leave a little Tequila in a bar close to the Delta gate(s) so there's still some there the next day (although a Bloody Maria ... or five ... might be just the ticket to cross the Caribbean)
A $30 ticket to Margaritaville just gets you in the door ... it doesn't provide transportation or VIP seating (whatever that's worth) ... at least, that's what I understood from the letters that came to me. Amanda leaves on the 25th, so there is still time.

Susan and I are looking forward to meeting all of you!
We will be getting in Wednesday afternoon (spirit- arr. 12:45) out of fort Lauderdale. As south floridians and parents of athletes, we'll be the ones with farmers tans. But they are really good farmers tans.
Staying till Monday, looking forward to watching the superbowl. Where at the resort do they have it on the tube (please tell me on the beach).
Susan and I will be playin' golf at least one day. Since we missed the outing we are hoping to get a couple fun foursomes up one or two days.
Have our Marg.. tickets and looking foreward to a great weekend.

I'm not sure where they will set up for the Superbowl, but they've done this before. Maybe someone who saw it there last year can tell us.

Mac, The Superbowl weekend was a week after Featcamp last year, so I don't think any of us were still around by then. The first year at Negril, there was a big screen showing in the dining hall, with the screen over the stage. It was a fun night, and a cool way to wind down from the Featfun highs and prepare for a return to the real world. I look forward to doing it again real soon ( Flying in on Air Jamaica JM 002 from London Heathrow on 30th Jan ).

Scott, Think you and your lovely lady were luckier than us and you have the earlier flight operated by Air Jamaica. Our flight doesn't leave from ATL until 10:30 AM. Wished we were on that earlier flight with ya, but we will see you both at the ranch. -cooldad- Mark Waltz
