Hotels and Flights for the NC

just got my tickets. Cost 25k airline miles roundtrip from PDX to DFW. coming wed, leaving Sunday. still waiting to hear on where the team is staying hotel wise.
 
My brother and I (also my cousin and his wife who are driving from Oklahoma City) will be staying at the Hyatt Place - At the Galleria in North Dallas. Looks like a nice place and the rate is awesome - 89 bucks a night for 2 beds double occupancy. This is going to be a long, long 3 weeks of waiting...
 
Thanks for the heads up marceagfan. Just got mine and assuming if we get these thru our site the seats will be with fellow EWU fans...
 
Booked at Candlewood Suites, about six miles from the stadium. Looks like it's starting to fill-up fast, get a spot ASAP!
 
Almost got a suite at Aloft, but I've got to wait a little to book. Looks like I'll be using the rental car a lot since my hotel's going to be farther away. I've got the airfare and the game tickets, though. That's the most important thing.

Just got lodging at Aloft Frisco, 3 miles from the stadium. Nearly everything close full.

If you're going by way of website - yes, many are populating as full or no availability. I suggest you try calling the 888 or 800 numbers when you run into this scenario. I called Westin Stonebriar, Sheraton Stonebriar and Aloft just this morning and had the option to book at each of those spots. I'm sure they've got rooms blocked off, not only for teams (waiting on school counts) - but for their general travelling business clientele as well. I imagine some of those will open up as the week of the 3rd draws closer - but would expect them to fill fast with folks making last minute plans.
 
we're staying at the holiday inn express in North Plano, 6 miles from stadium..


FYI, the team is staying at the Westin @ frisco.
