Xmas Locked.

Finally booked the air for the Xmas trip.

Had to fly out to OAK for the flight, but managed to find a round tripper on Allegiant for less than $200 for that week. SFO was hovering around $400 so peace to that and I'll do the BART to save a couple hundy. Had some flight credit on Allegiant too, so only a $105 hit to the wallet.

The flight times are less than ideal, as I'm not wheels down in Vegas on the in until 11:30p, and the out flight is late in the day for me, but for a couple reasons, it's OK. First, after the Turkey trip will be draining the bank account a bit, it's not a horrible thing to get in a little later and save some dosh on that first night. I also won't have to rush out of work that day, can lollygag around until normal go home time then roll over to OAK. On the return, 7pm flight, but I have the rest of that week off so a later flight is fine - I can probably hook up with late check out and be in the room until 3p, then maybe get some lunch somewhere and loaf my way to the airport around 5p. No biggie. Then I've got the next 4 days off to R&R from the trip, and from the year.

So, that's out of the way, as are all of my travel plans for this long Vegas year. 6 trips will be the tally and hopefully can send out the year with a couple strong trips.
