Diosa De Cancion Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 Hurricane dear, I need help with the airlines and what we can take clothes wise. Is there a problem with metal boning in my bodice? and what about my daggers? Do I lock them in a box or just send them ahead of me? Can any one let me know what to do? would appreciate so I don't have to deal with the airlines. Merry, there are options here... If you want to ship swords and daggers in advance - you can feel free to ship them to us here in Altamonte Springs, and we'll deliver to KW :) (since we'll be there the whole time, I suppose that means they'll be there waiting for you) Or you can ship them to your hotel, and put a note that tells the hotel to hold them until you arrive. As for a bodice, are you talking about metal boning in one you are wearing on the plane? if so, expect to be pulled aside, I have had that happen before, but the'll just wand you, maybe have a female TSA agent 'check it out' but then let you through. If it's in your suitcase, no problem at all, they may look through the luggage, but they'll leave it alone. Hope this helps. Diosa Diosa De Cancion aka Mary Read www.iammaryread.com
Merrydeath Posted October 6, 2004 Posted October 6, 2004 wow.. good information! Thanks to all of you who helped. Its been 20 some years since I traveled by air, so this is going to be weird. I am a bit nervous about all of this, but you have helped. I just hope I can get there early enough. I have a bad habit of not allowing enough time. My bodice has wide metal panels in it, heavy ones. I think it will be okay, and I might just leave my daggers behind. No sense losing something to show off. BTW, my ticket went up $100 from last week, and another $20 while I was looking at the flights. It's now $407 from small city Ia to KW round trip.

hurricane Posted October 6, 2004 Posted October 6, 2004 Merrydear, You may want to look at the same plan Animal is doing. He and the Doc are flying into Miami (which is far cheaper than a plane change to KW) and is driving down to KW on a one-way with Dollar Rentacar I believe. Then he will get a car and drive back at the end of the festival so he doesn't incur the cost of having a rental car sitting around doing nothing. It's a pretty four hour drive from Miami to KW - most of it through all the Keys. Just did the trip myself (plus the additional 4 to Orlando) and never tire of the drive. Check the price difference - it may be worth it. KW Pirate (Deadly Aim) and Animal can provide the particulars. -- the Captain -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Ross Posted October 6, 2004 Posted October 6, 2004 I am getting so excited about PIP. Is just about everyone staying with KW Pirate at the Southernmost Hotel? We will have a Pirate camp of our own. What a great time we will have!!! Katherine and I are looking forward to seeing everyone there. Avast Ross Pirate Low Class
Merrydeath Posted October 6, 2004 Posted October 6, 2004 Thanks Hurricane, but I have my ticket now, and its a steep charge to change it. I guess I am going come hell or high water, and KW has had both! Thanks for the tips, and I am sure others can use them also. I did look at the airtravel tips. I might just leave my blades at home but mail my hat. Its a pretty thing that is hard to pack. :) Pirate Lass with sass, brass, a cutlass, an a nice *ss.

Diosa De Cancion Posted October 6, 2004 Posted October 6, 2004 I am getting so excited about PIP.  Is just about everyone staying with KW Pirate at the Southernmost Hotel? We will have a Pirate camp of our own. What a great time we will have!!! Katherine and I are looking forward to seeing everyone there. Avast Ross Pirate Low Class Yes, The Southernmost is definately the locale of the Pyrates of the Coast as well as many other pirates. It's a great place to hang out, and besides Deadly Aim works there, so we can harrass her....er... see her more often! Diosa Diosa De Cancion aka Mary Read www.iammaryread.com
Hawkyns Posted October 6, 2004 Posted October 6, 2004 mail my hat. Its a pretty thing that is hard to pack. :) If I have to fly with a tricorne, I pack it in a separate box (made mine from a file box), fill the crown with soft clothing, and take it as carryon. Cuts down on what I can take carryon otherwise, but I've made it around the country without it getting crushed, not even breaking the clay pipe in the cords. Hawkyns Cannon add dignity to what otherwise would be merely an ugly brawl I do what I do for my own reasons. I do not require anyone to follow me. I do not require society's approval for my actions or beliefs. if I am to be judged, let me be judged in the pure light of history, not the harsh glare of modern trends.
Sheila Posted October 6, 2004 Posted October 6, 2004 was just talking to Studley. we are both really excited. I'm ready to go now. :) Sheila forever! Green, it's not a color, it'a obsession!!!

Merrydeath Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 I tried something different, this time, I used my small carryon with my hat wedged in tight, with soft stuff under it, and things packed in around it. It traveled well, as Hawkyns said. I got the idea from him! there maybe a few changes coming, a different wind blowing thru the sails. We'll see about it in just a few weeks. Skot, we'll see who has the last laugh.. or yo ho. Pirate Lass with sass, brass, a cutlass, an a nice *ss. Capt of the FOOLS GOLD PIRATES BLAST BREAST CANCER!

hurricane Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 You mean people pack their hats? We wear ours onboard the plane. No sense hiding a perfectly good tricorn in a box... and the security guys always want to trade for their ball caps.
