do as I say, not as I do is something I tell all my students.how is everyone getting from the airport to their hotels/condos? Bus? Shuttle? Taxi? Just a minor little detail I haven't worked out yet.

Mia - I think my friend's hotel (that I'm camping in) is the Waikiki Banyan. Don't know anything about it being a condo, but I'm just there for the free room, LOL.

Yeah it is a hotel, but this company has bought a number of rooms within it, and then offers it for cheaper
than the cost of renting through the hotel. So...we cant' call for room service or anything, but i don't need no wakeup call to tell me its time to ROCK! 
You are most welcome to come get your groove on Lila!

There's a shuttle service right outside the doors of the baggage pickup area that will take you from the airport right to your hotel's front door. It's a pretty good deal. I think it was around $12 for a roundtrip ticket.
You have to keep the stub, then call the company on the morning that you want to leave. They'll pick you up and take you back to the airport. The shuttle I've gone on every time is called Rogers, and they're pretty good.

We've been doing the shuttle every year, and it saves so much hastle. It's door to door service, which is so fantastic.

I've never heard of Gravol, but yes it contains the same drug as Dramamine it's just the Canadian name, both are used for motion sickness, typically rough boat rides or long car rides. Like most drugs, you can get a non-drowsy version, or the regular stuff. I bought it before leaving for Africa because they told us we'd be on a boat crossing Lake Victoria, and several small planes. I don't usually get motion sickness, but you never know. I didn't realize until after I'd taken two that I had the drowsy formula. The acting drug is similar to Benadryl, so if you're familiar with that you can see how it makes you nice and sleepy
Depending on what brand name you buy, it shouldn't cost you more than $6.
If you want it to make you sleepy, don't get the Dramamine II (the non-drowsy formula).
Perfect... thanks Lies, I am going to buy some today. I do not think I will need it but I have never taken such a long flight before so i am going to give it a shot.

There ya go. Special thanks to Eileen for getting us this info.

Cool. I might get some too. I won't need it, but then I'll be forced to get some shut eye.

Long flight newbies, remember to get up and stretch from time to time. Walk about a bit, stretch in an open part of the cabin.

If I weren't in Hawaii, I'd be a lot more willing to waste 24 hours standing in line! 6pm on Friday, HA!

I hope most people think your way too. There are better things to do then plopping your ass down in a parking lot in Hawaii for almost 24 hours.
I, along with most folks I have chatted with online, plan on heading down early in the morning, early in a breakfast time sense, not coming back from the bar sense. Although, I may be still drunk from the previous night.

I agree. I'm not too worried though. The stadium mean WAY more spots, plus I'm entertaining the idea of heading straight for the rail that divides the front area, like going to the front area, but with my back against the rail. I've been up front twice in arenas so I've had my chance, plus I'd like to take in the whole show.
I booked this trip last minute to catch the U-Jam show on the 9th. When I booked flights and bought a ticket to the show I didn't realize it would be extrememly difficult to find a reasonable place to stay on Oahu. I was too excited to think about it. Everything that is still available is upwards of $100 per night. I will be there by myself until the 13th (arriving on the 9th). Does anyone have any advice or perhaps even extra room to share ? Or even if someone is in the same situation I am would they like to share something.
Any advice would be great - thanks.

In order for some to provide assistance, it might be helpful to know if you are male or female and possible age range. A group of girls probably wouldn't offer a place to stay to a male stranger.
Check out our Hawaii board and the Travel Plans thread. Someone may be able to help you there plus there may be info on possible places to stay.
Good luck, I have already taken in two people myself for a few nights.

The reason people camp out overnight is because they think people are camping out overnight. IMHO.

I have Northwest too.
I flew Northwest/KLM to Amsterdam, and then on to Kilimanjaro, and the same backwards (so four flights 8 hours or more each). We got lots of meals and our seats each had their own TV with lots of movie choices. Maybe that was more KLM though. The Dutch flight attendants were super nice, always stopping and asking if we wanted this or that, and it was a big plane (like 3-5-3 or something like that).
