**Redfox0099** · 10-11-2006, 07:20 PM

Help, I am gonna fly out for the SRT Track experience at Laguna Seca in Monterey, Ca. on December 1st.....but where do I land?

I will be flying in from DFW (Dallas, Tx.) so i can land pretty much anywhere but...where to land?
df

San Francisco, CA (QSF-All Airports)
Oakland, CA (OAK-Oakland Intl.)
San Francisco, CA (SFO-San Francisco Intl.)
San Jose, CA (SJC-San Jose Intl.)

Where to stay.....near Monterey, Ca.

Anyone want to have a small Meet and Greet?

No one on this forum can tell me if one airport in San Fran is better to fly into or another......crazy

Fly into Oakland or SFO and enjoy the drive down to Monterey. The place to stay is:

Embassy Suites Monterey Bay/Seaside
1441 Canyon del Rey Blvd
Seaside, CA 93955
(831) 393-1115

We stayed there last year for the SRTTE and there was a huge turnout of LX's. Nice hotel, reasonably priced and close to the beach & the freeway.

Enjoy the SRTTE

I would say SFO is better than Oakland, but the San Jose airport is a little closer and still has the major airlines. There's an airport in Monterey but it's tiny.

I arranged for 16 rooms at the Navy Lodge but I don't know if there are any left. Here's the info:
Lodging:

As far as a meet & greet, yeah, I'm sure we'll be getting together. I live within 2 miles of both hotels mentioned above. If anyone wants to know cool things to do or places to eat just ask.

FYI, most of the coordination I've seen online is happening here:

The uphill backstretch leading to the corkscrew is probably long enough to land on if you have enough of a headwind.

two items...
#1 - if you are flying in on your own plane - land at Monterrey, CA. - they have a decent facility.
#2 - see our thread on the SRTTE weekend here:
12/2/2006 - SRT Track Experience - Laguna Seca

Remember traffic...... SFO and Oakland mean you're driving down 101 or 880. If you're landing between 7AM and 7PM, that drive will suck.
SJC puts you right on the southern part of 880, nice easy shot over to Monterey via 17 and 1 (pretty) or 101 (faster).
