Bus to Montana

[elprup79]

If we get 50 passengers, it will be around $260 per person. Leaving around 10 AM or noon on Thursday Dec 8 and returning after we WIN the game. Would be leaving from either Waterloo or Des Moines. Anyone interested? This is being coordinated by some player parents.

I might be interested depending on whether or not I find riders.

If you think you have close to 50, check into a charter flight - a large turboprop would get there in less than four hours and might not cost much more than a bus. Getting everybody locked in so you can arrange it will be a challenge.

Re: Bus to Montana

best I could find is a super king air out of Carver Air in Davenport for only 10 people for about 1500 bucks an hour(just for the plane) the thing is most places(elliott in DSM, Landmark in Cedar Rapids) don't just have 50 seaters laying around.

If you had a pilot though, you could fly one from livingston in waterloo for 425 an hour seating five.

here's where I went

Re: Bus to Montana

Looks like there are about 25 interested bus riders so far. Anyone want to join in and make the trip ? Cost for 29 riders will be about $350. If we get 50 the cost will be about $250. Probably leaving from Des Moines around 3 PM on Thursday Dec. 8

I hope you fill the bus and bring lots of fans its awesome when teams bring a large fan base to Montana.

2 things:

1. I would hire a bus driver that isnt from Iowa so you actually make it here and dont end up in Ireland.

2. Make sure to pack some extra boxes and packing tape so you can help us send our stuff to Frisco, TX before you leave.

I'd love to end up in Ireland. Have a REAL Guiness again. Hanging out Galway eating brown bread and eating fatty food.

Not saying there is anything wrong with Ireland, its just that you guys would miss the game and I dont want that to happen.
