ok yes i printed out the 3 pages im going to fill them out tonight and send them tomorrow how should i send them to get them there asap? how would you suggest? thanks aigan darren whats the chances of gettin my other half going with me do you think?

 

Thanks Darren....I have a credit card....i probably have too many....i was just thinking about others....and that would be great if we could get a list....you're the best

 

Alright I sent the paperwork out first class mail this morning :D

So working at Best Buy we have this nice blackout period from basically november-january/february where we're not allowed to take vacations. Went up to the GM today and basically said if I didn't get this time off then I'd be calling in sick in advance hahahaha. He said ok :D

 

You can send it regular mail. I am working on getting confirmations sent to me so that I can post them on the site.

I'll say this again for people that don't have time to read through all ten pages of this topic. Scion is paying for one roundtrip airfare, one single-occupancy room and you get only one ticket to the VIP events. If you want to pay to fly someone else over and let them stay in your room then that is up to you, but they will not be able to attend the private events.

 

darren your going to double check to see about my situation right to see if i can have a person with me at all times if u wish not to answer here you may email me @

JUST4IMZ@AOL.COM

... thanks for all the help ...

 

I sent you a PM, check your inbox.

 

Darren, YOU ROCK!!!

I hope they fly us on American Airlines... that way I get to rack up my miles.. I know I can always sign up for another airline's frequent flyer club, but I already invested some into AA.

AGAIN... WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO!

btw... thanks for the answer on the HIN.

 

so darren do you know what the vip party is? or is it on lockdown cant tell style?

 

Raul, I believe your situation is different, as there is a federal requirement for resonable accomodations to be made in most cases. Hopefully, you can get in contact with the folks in charge, through Darren.

Here's some light reading for those interested: http://www.ada.gov/t3hilght.htm ...and there is an 800 number to contact the USDOJ folks about ADA matters. (Been there, done that.)

Good luck!

See you in Miami,
Tomas

 

hey thomas so your saying that they would be wrong to not help me with my situation?

 

all the details are on the printout =)

"its a celebration, _____es!"

 

I can't say that, Raul, but excluding someone from participation by not making needed accomodations is frowned upon. (It would also be terrible PR, but that's another story.)

From the feds: "If a criterion screens out or tends to screen out individuals with disabilities, it may only be used if necessary for the provision of the services."

I suspect that you would likely have to pay for the additional airfare, but it would not be unreasonable, IMHO, to expect Scion to provide lodging, local transport, and venue access for your 'attendant/companion.' (Some airlines used to offer reduced fares for attendants, too, but you'd have to check with them to see if they still do.)

If you have any other questions, PM me. I'm not a lawyer on an expert by any means, but have had to fight for "reasonable accomodation" in the past.

Take care,
Tomas

 

Any guesses on where we'll be staying...? Because there are some not-so-nice places in South Beach that are single occupancy and (hopefully NOT!) just the cheapest thing they can give us...

But then again... there is the Ritz... hehehe...

This is going to be an awesome trip!!!

 

Yahoo... I've won!

 

Yea does anyone have any insight on what hotel we will be at and the flights etc, would love to know those things way before decemember

 

Well, the whole package is priced at $1.020.00. Now if you break down approximate values of airfare, hotel for 2 nights, and VIP access...it doesn't look like we are staying in the Ritz. Maybe they got a deal with whatever hotel since they have to book for 300 people....

 

but we are flying budget coach... Im flying to Orlando from Boston for a wedding in NOV and the roundtrip tickets were only $168...

but thinking about it, your probably right anyways...

 

Well I was a travel agent so we most likely I would think would be getting a decent hotel as it is consider the off season in Mia, me myself will be flying from ORF to MIA, hopefully won't be sitting in the luggage rack

 

how did you get that "MIAMI LOSER" avatar?

 

haha, Tomas made that and I just copied it of him.

I asked him if it was ok for me to bite his "loser" style and he didnt say anything so i kept it, lol...
