Big Rob Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 So glad it's New Orleans for 'Mania, I've always wanted to go so this is the perfect opportunity. It's a bit early to start planning for me, but I reckon I'll start looking into things soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazz Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 The stadium has a fair few hotels dotted around it. Â Though I suspect a lot of the closer ones may be gobbled by travel packages... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killjoy_Gee Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I plan to go if I can afford it. Were the prices for the Travel Packages higher this year than for 28 or lower? Does anyone with experience of these packages, but also travel, have an estimation for if New Orleans would be cheaper than Miami/New York?

Ric Flair's Divorce Lawyer Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Yeah me and my brother definitely plan on going especially as its the 30th Anniversary. Never been to USA or a Mania, it will be something I can tick off the bucket list. Â As far as prices go, I think this year it was more expensive for Mania travel packages as it was in the NY/NJ area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have to pay in full now, or can you pay in installments? What hotel was it? I just used google maps, but all the hotels seem to be a Hilton or something I know will be expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killjoy_Gee Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Yeah, done some research with a pal and noticed. Crazy. Â We've estimated New Orleans will be between the two silver packages from the past 2 years - at $1200. Hopeful thinking I'm sure, but that would be about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAREBEAR LUVVA Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Is everyone using a Trip Advisor/Expedia type site to look for hotels, or just Googling for stuff? I had a look on Expedia this afternoon but decent hotel rooms (as in ones that look clean and aren't in the arse end of town) mostly seem to be going for over a grand for the first week in April. I'm still going whatever happens, but I wasn't expecting it to be quite that expensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
