I know that a lot of you are in the process of making your travel
arrangements for this year's PRSA National Convention in San Francisco. To
help cut down the cost of airfare, I have contacted a local travel agency
who has negotiated the following deal if we can get at least 10 people to
participate:
American Airlines has the best value:
15 Nov Knoxville - Dallas 646a-817a
15 Nov Dallas- San Fran 924a-1119a
20 Nov San Fran - Dallas 628a-1148a
20 Nov Dallas - Knoxville 1252p-355p
$292.10 per person
The travel agency has held 20 seats but could get more if we need them. If
you are interested, you have to pay a deposit by 9-10-02 of 40.00 per seat.
Final payment and names due by 10-16-02.
******Once the deposit is paid it will be non-refundable.
At least 10 people must take advantage of this fare for us to get it. I did
a check of fares through some online dealers and the lowest fare was $349
and that was leaving Knoxville really late on Friday afternoon.
****American offers what the call "Quick Sign"****
If we can get the deposit of 800.00 (all 20 seats sold and deposits
collected) and a sign contract back to them before the 20th of Aug the group
will get an additional 10% off. This would bring the fare down to $269.74
each.
The agent also called other airlines to get prices. Here is what she came
up with.
Delta $389.00 per seat
United $414.50 per seat
Please give me a call as soon as possible if you are interested in this
deal. Our goal is to fill those 20 seats and collect deposits by August 20th
to get the additional discount.
Thanks,
