Re: COMMON Update... - the closing event -- MIDRANGE-L

actually 1.5.... People schedule a 1-3pm flight, catch the first couplesessions in the day, zoom to room, checkout and catch a cab to airport.

Interesting.  What is more likely:

1 - West coast conference.  People blow off the whole Thursday in order to
catch a Thursday morning flight.
2 - West coast conference.  People realize they can't catch a Thursday
afternoon flight so they fly out on Friday morning instead.

Re: COMMON Update... - the closing event








this is one of the big reasons why, if COMMON wants to keep any kind of
Thursday attendance, they kinda need to keep the conferences east of the
MS, with the exception of say San Antonio...  You can get 5-7pm flights
outta SAT and still hit east coast airports without having to catch a red
eye...

If you're leaving a west coast COMMON for an east coast residence you
might as well stay for the Thursday night follies.  Many flights are not
even available for after 11am or 12n from the west coast to the east
coast.  Because by the time you get back east many airports are shut

down.

East coast conferences do offer a lot of temptation for west coasties to
head back west though.

Re: COMMON Update... - the closing event






I'm sure I'll get slammed for this idea.

Why not close the conference at noon on Thursday with a nice free lunch
and a guest speaker of the caliber of the ones that got stepped on by
Quadrant.

No matter what you offer in an evening event, many people would have
already left.

Just an idea.
