Is the Doubletree near the airport or in town?

I think there are about 8-10 people who have expressed interest in going (some have mentioned to me that they are bringing their +1s). I'm not sure how many actually will, though I'm fairly certain that at least 6 will show up. This is not an "organized event" Just me inviting people to come to Toronto and hang out with me for the weekend and do some fun things. (Like a game night Friday night, the mystery at the Royal Museum on Saturday and maybe a Segway tour). I have a few groups things planned, but no defined itinerary as of yet.
With the news that someone from MPC is going to come hang out with us, for at least a little while, over the weekend...more may decide to come along. It is still too far away for most folks to make plans.
If the number of confirmed people increase I may make it more of an organized event to help keep track of things and will reach out to the hotel to see about a reduced room price for a room block for everyone.

I whish you guys a great weekend. I would love to join you, but the trip to Canada from Germany is much to long. That's the downside to beeing an international community ;-)

I would love to be there, but cost of flights and three kids at home have put a damper on our social life. Maybe we could pull it off in a few years. Have a wonderful time! I can't wait to hear about meeting someone from MPC! I wonder if they'll come in character! Oooh, I'm so very jealous.

It is still a long way off I figure March is the deadline date. Three months out and people will be buying plane tickets etc.

I believe that somewhere I read that the optimal time to buy an airline ticket is 42 days prior to the flight (not that I follow this rule myself).

Isn't the answer to everything 42?
