Has pricing been set yet? I'm also looking to see what sessions will be offered before so i can justify the 900mile drive.

I am checking flights now to see if we can fly from Dubai. Prices seems to be ok there, but considering that i am starting on my own early next year, not sure what will be the situation by Sept 2016 but keeping an eye on the prices and see if we can make it, really want to attend and meet you all amazing people.
Today's price is 7178 United Arab Emirates Dirham = 1954.29 US Dollar for 2
Not sure about the visa though! If I come with my wife, by the time we attend Mangocon, hope she can go around and see places too!

That would be awesome! I can't imagine that visas will be too bad. Necessary but not too terrible. You should be able to get a tourist visa and do it that way since you will be being legitimate tourists while you are Stateside. Lots to see in the area, Upstate NY is very neat. Although I'd recommend booking time to go see New York City too, which is quite some ways away. If you can spend some time in the area you are close to a LOT of stuff like everything from Washington, DC to Boston and all of that famous history and culture is only a few hours each direction by car.

My cousin teaches special needs students in Dubai. She flies home twice a year for about $1,000. Edit: Oh I see you have for 2 after that sorry.

It's amazing how cheaply you can get to the States from Dubai, but it is because Dubai is a major global hub, the flights are direct and the airlines are subsidized.

Next Mangocon... in Dubai then!

-
Far but cheap and hot.
-
-
$360-$450 out of BigD.

Whoa, @Texkonc is here!!
-
yeah im around....

So what's the cheapest way to get from Mid Wales to this then ?????
if things go south with the wife I might need a weeks holiday in New York BABY! -
For Wales, your best bet is going to be either London or Dublin (no idea how you would get to Dublin from there... ferry?) Aer Lingus from Dublin and BA from London tend to be the best deals. American does the same BA flight path so is worth checking with, too.
The surprise value airline is Norwegian. Check them, they are very nice and might easily be the cheapest option. They would be out of London as well.
-
Woohoo! A convention near me for once! I will be there!
-
AWESOME!! Haven't heard from you in awhile! Hello!
-
@Minion-Queen Yeah, hectic would be a very under-stated way of describing my life lately. Trying to start a videography business, working on a game review website, managing several youtube channels, I moved a few months back, and I still have my full-time job that I hate... Apparently I decided some time early this year that I was allergic to free time.

@Awkward-Gamer Well we are happy to have you poke your head in!
