Keep in mind the following comments:
- Book your flight for departing the conference well before the conference. (especially if you plan on staying over the weekend).
- Be sure to book your hotel early to get the hotel you want for that weekend.
- Similarly, take this into consideration when making dining or entertainment reservations that weekend.
