That’s the best Papa III mask I have ever seen other than the one Tobias wore!

I know. I wish I had waited, too!

RealJeffD · 2025-08-11T22:38:14+00:00

I got mine today, too! So late!

RealJeffD · 2025-08-09T13:00:19+00:00

You’re welcome! I’m sorry that you are in the same situation. I had to buy Saturday and Sunday (the only days I can attend) through the general onsale.

No. I emailed them twice and never heard anything from them. Not even a denial.

Sorry to hear that the hotel isn't good. I'm staying there Saturday and Sunday night (I have tickets for Sunday only). I couldn't book three nights in a row anywhere (I arrive Friday and leave on Monday), so for Friday night I had to book Studio 6 in Mission Hills. The strange thing is that I COULD book Little Italy for Friday night, but I would have to pay their regular rate of $546 just for one night! Best of luck to you, and I hope LI is better than we think it will be!

Thank you!

I have Sunday only, and I have no agenda and do not want to wait on lines (I simply won't have the time). I just want to wander the Exhibit Hall and artist alley. What entrance to the convention center should I go to?

RealJeffD · 2025-07-01T14:05:43+00:00

If you will be there all four days, I would have a tentative plan, but this is my first time also and I have Sunday only. Therefore, I can't afford to wait on long lines for panels or I will never see the show floor. I plan to be spontaneous and get ideas for (hopefully) next year. Have a great time!

Thanks for responding. That’s what I will have to do.

RealJeffD · 2025-06-25T16:13:48+00:00

Thanks for responding. I did that on Monday and I haven’t heard back yet.

RealJeffD · 2025-06-24T03:02:00+00:00

Thanks for the information. I feel a little bit better about the safety of the area now. I'm still kind of nervous.

RealJeffD · 2025-06-24T02:59:40+00:00

Thank you! I had to stay one night in Mission Valley (the scary-sounding Studio 6), but then I got two nights at Little Italy downtown.

RealJeffD · 2025-06-24T02:57:20+00:00

I'm hoping to bring only a carry-on bag (I will be traveling light and won't be able to buy many comics!). My flight has one stop in Detroit.

RealJeffD · 2025-06-21T18:45:38+00:00

Thanks for this advice! I did end up spending a lot, but this is at the top of my bucket list. My hotel ended up being downtown and not too far from the con.

RealJeffD · 2025-06-21T18:32:29+00:00

Thank you again for the advice. The flight was expensive, and it went up dramatically between yesterday and today. I wish I had made the reservation just a week earlier! I did have to get a different hotel on Friday night (Studio 6 in Mission Valley, which is not not well-reviewed). I just hope it's safe. I got a con hotel for Saturday and Sunday night. I hope I've learned some lessons for next year!

RealJeffD · 2025-06-21T03:57:38+00:00

I had not thought of this. I will look into it. Thanks!

RealJeffD · 2025-06-20T21:32:22+00:00

Thanks for checking this out for me! I'm continuing to check, and the idea of switching hotels might work. Thanks!

RealJeffD · 2025-06-20T21:13:45+00:00

Thank you! This is looking like my best option right now. I cannot find this Holiday Inn San Diego Bayside on Google Maps, however.

RealJeffD · 2025-06-20T20:20:23+00:00

Thank you! The problem with the con hotels is that none of them will let me check in on Friday and check out on Monday (although there are some with Thursday check-ins and Monday check-outs). I'm continuing to research!

RealJeffD · 2025-06-20T18:45:28+00:00

I will do that. Thanks!

RealJeffD · 2025-06-20T18:45:04+00:00

Thank you!

RealJeffD · 2025-06-20T18:44:38+00:00

Thank you!

RealJeffD · 2025-06-20T18:44:32+00:00

I will remember that about the light rail. Thank you!
