Always driven within the UK (though some do fly – especially between Bournemouth and Glasgow) … but otherwise I fly.

That has included Historicon (3 times) plus ancients events in Durban, Melbourne, Athens, Rome, Dublin and New Orleans. Always received a great welcome but don't get out so much these days frown

I live in California so every year, or other year, I fly over for Historicon.

Flown from Texas to Historicon, Nashcon, and Huzzah.

I've found that the regional cons are a ton of fun and well worth the trip. However I should add a caveat, is that all flights/hotels are paid via points so no financial impact, just time

Flown Scotland to Brussels for Crisis. Apparently going by train is feasible too.

I once flew to and from Dayton in order to drive to Historicon. Does that count? These days the wife and I don't fly anywhere.

Flew to Origins 77 in Staten Island, 1978 in Detroit, 1984 in Dallas, 1993 in Fort Worth, and 1994 in San Jose along with multiple GAMA Trade Shows in Las Vegas and New Orleans.

Have I misunderstood what Con Air was about?
