dragoncon_lj_archive1. A few weeks ago (I think) I saw a post on here concerning where to eat at the Con and someone mentioned a place George Takei (again...I think) had recommended. Does this ring a bell for anyone? I thinking of eating there Thursday night.
2. Didn't there used to be a shuttle run by the lovely D*Con people taking people from the airport to the hotels? I feel like I've seen people with con related signs waiting by baggage claim advertising a shuttle of sorts. Are they still offering that? I get in at 8pm Thursday night and I'm considering different transportation options. Is MARTA a safe option around that time frame?
3. See above re: 8PM arrival. For those of you who are familiar with flying into Atlanta for the con, is there any chance of me making badge pick-up before 10 or should I resign myself to an early wake up Friday morning?
4. Has anyone ever used Hyatt's on-line checkin service before? Since I'm not getting in till late-ish, want to have dinner with some loved ones before the Con begins, and have to deal with the airport for once I'm trying to avoid checking in super late. My boyfriend has a fear of heights and the sooner I can check-in and hopefully snag our requested low-floor room the better. Tips?
You would think after years of coming to this thing I'd be able to answer a lot of this myself but it's my first time ever flying in (I've picked people up at the airport plenty of times though!) and it seems to be throwing me off lol.
