Is Quad Cities the nearest airport?

Looking forward to it, Billy. Sure it will be a bang-up affair.

Yes the Quad city airport is across the river in Moline, MLI, if you have a private plane the
Davenport airport is about 3 miles from the convention . Either way the hotel has a
free shuttle

Just checked, flights out of Orlando run $429 - $489 RT American & United.... + 50 first bag

1226 Miles - 17 hours 37 mins hours by car (best case) = about $360 in fuel and maybe & extra night on the road both ways ( allow $100 ) = $460.

that washes , so a 3.5 hour flight VS an eternity on snowy, icy roads ...possibly very cold temps or worst $:-\$

no brainier...

Major, check Allegiant Air, out of Sanford (Orlando), they fly direct and if booked early probably
a lot cheaper. They also fly direct to Dallas/Ft Worth for you Texans to consider.
