I am also all booked and ticketed, and my current excitement level almost has me packing my suitcase, 4 months before my actual departure date.

Aloha and Heads Up!
There are now just 20 of the Big Kahuna Passes remaining for The Hukilau 2006. These are the deeply discounted passes which give you complete access throughout the weekend (the Mai-Kai is still a separate, stand-alone event).
If you miss out on the Big Kahuna, you can still purchase the Aloha Pass, and buy seminar tickets (if available) separately.
Beachbum Berry's Mixology Seminar is almost sold-out!
Mahalo!

I see some have booked the Clipper and some have booked the Cabana. Where's the REAL party people staying? I want to drink and jam all night! I'm betting on the Cabana and I'm booked already. TK, Humu, I Dream Of, Tikilish, and all you TC Vets: where are you staying?

Well myself, I'm staying at the Clipper because I enjoy my beauty sleep! But, you have the right idea, the Cabana is most definitely the late night after party spot.
Most of this years events will be held at the Clipper but the Cabana is a favorite for lunch and dinner daily!

Right-O, Ukulare!
The historic Yankee Clipper is a member of Starwood Hotels, and thus, just "slightly" more sophisticated than the Days Inn Bahia Cabana. I think the wooden benches and tables at the Cabana are designed to take a little more of that spring break ruff-and-tumble that has made Ft. Lauderale such a memorable destination for so many.
Mahalo!

The Clipper & the Cabana are right next to each other, so it doesn't really matter -- as a matter of fact, the Cabana actually has many of its rooms in two satellite buildings across the street from the main building, so many who will be staying "at" the Cabana will in reality be about as far/near as the Clipper. I have every intention of being at the parties into the very wee, wee hours, but I'll be stumbling home to the Clipper across the street. Those full-size ironing boards are seriously a major attraction for me.

Hi all - in the interest of finding cheap airfare I thought I'd share my source for usually finding the best rates:
http://matrix.itasoftware.com/cvg/dispatch/
You can't buy tickets through this site but it usually finds better deals than Expedia etc... Just find the flight there and head over to the airlines site and you should see the rate quoted. It pointed me over to Spirit last week and I pulled down RT NS tickets from Providence to Fort Lauderdale for a total of $171 (and I got the exact times I wanted too). Not too shabby.
