Anyone willing to pick up from the San Jose Airport... ?? May 24th at 12:50ish ... Will pay for gas .... One person: ME

IIRC, the airport's right on the light rail line, so if all else fails you can take that.  (Friends did it in years prior.)  Sorry I can't help with the ride, though ~

Hello, all.

Introduction: I'm a 26 male from Sacramento, CA and am considering doing a carpool to Fanime if I'm able to get a hotel room for the entire weekend.  I'll be leaving the city either late Thursday evening or early Friday morning.  And like I said, I'll be staying until Monday into the early evening (5-6 ish).  So if you live in the Sacramento vicinity and would like a ride, then let me know.

Rules: It goes without saying that you must have a place to stay after we arrive at the convention.  It's not my responsibility to provide you with shelter.  I apologize if that came off rude, but I wanted to get the point across.  Also, I ask for some gas money.  This will depend on the number of people I'm carpooling.  I can currently take three other individuals with me.  And yes, these individuals must be at least 18 years old.  It also goes without saying that these individuals must be respectful and considerate.  I don't mind fun and games but be polite and conscientious of the moment.  There will be no smoking or drinking allowed during the trip to and from Fanime.  I also won't be providing personal transportation to outside venues once we arrive at the convention UNLESS there is room in my car and the place I'm attending coincides with your destination (i.e. we must be going to the same place).  Lastly, it's your responsibility to be present when the time comes to depart the convention on Monday evening.  If you're not there, you will be left behind.  So have fun while you're at the con, but be responsible and mindful to the rest of us when it's time to leave.

Contact: You can either PM me or send me an email (ntvang85@yahoo.com).  I can provide my number upon request if you want to further discuss the carpool arrangement.  It would be helpful if I got to know you a little before we take off from Sacramento.

Miscellaneous: I want everyone to have a fun time, but there must be order at some level - hence, the "attitude" that came across under the rules heading.  But in all honesty, I'm a pretty lose guy.  I'm open-minded and respectful and would like to give a helping hand when asked.

Looking for carpoolers around Los Angeles area. I'll be leaving Thursday mid-morning and will be leaving San Jose Monday around 5pm latest, or whenever everyone is ready to leave. I already have 2 confirmed (myself and a friend in Bakersfield so one quick stop on the way) and looking for at least 2 more people. I'm not asking for much just that you are willing to pitch in for gas money, $20. I do have a few rules however: that you are over the age of 18, sorry I just don't want to be held responsible for minors. I can provide some light snacks and drinks but if you can too that'll be great. I'll have some music available but if you can pitch in too so I don't go crazy over that 5-6 hour drive..Also I'm not a hardcore cosplayer. I do have cosplayers planned but they are things I can just pack regularly, so I will ask that you limit the bags you have. If anyone is interested just send me an email.

I will be living in Pacifica, which is next to San Francisco. Could someone carpool me? I can pay with cash, or make something  yummy! (If I were carpooling, I would want at least one person to bring a snack! That is a bit of a drive!) I would like to leave Thursday. :P


Me playing with the face choices! >.<

New update!

I'm driving from Los Angeles on Wednesday Afternoon and staying a night with some friends in their pad in Merced, then on Thursday morning, we're going to the hotel and leaving the convention on Tuesday morning back to Los Angeles!

We've rented a full 12-passenger van because we like elbow and cargo room!  If interesed, I would ask $85 for a seat.

I'm likely driving to Fanime, and I'm pretty sure that one passes by/through San Francisco on the way to San Jose, at least from the direction of where I live. If that is the case, maybe you can carpool with me :3 I'm going alone, anyway. XD I could use the company.

How about maybe $50 or so, and maybe a few snacks? Food's a good idea :3

50$ Is a lot. Usually I pay 20$. You know what? We should just take public transportation. It is like 10$.
But yes, something yummy! Cookies? Muffins? It should be something that is not too messy or stinky!

Is there anybody heading through Truckee/past Lake Tahoe who could give me a ride to the con on the 24th? Or even from Sacramento? I am really hoping to cut-down on the cost of transportation... Otherwise, I was going to take either the Greyhound or Amtrak (probably would go with Amtrak, if I have to choose). I would like to spend as little time as possible on a bus/train, so thank you if you can help me out. :D

Transportation To Fanime From San Diego and Back
« Reply #57 on: May 10, 2012, 01:26:44 AM »

Hey everyone! I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but it didn't seem like it would fit in any of the other subforums. But getting down to business...

I'm looking for someone in the San Diego area who is going to and from Fanime this year who might have a spare spot in their car that I could fill with myself and contributions towards gas money. All I need is a ride to and from, and I am fairly flexible about the when and where as long I get up there. Unfortunately I don't have enough to pay for a flight and don't know anyone else here that's going this year, so I'm on the lookout for someone that I could ride with. I travel fairly light (no more than one suitcase) and would be immensely grateful if anyone in the area could provide me transportation (or knows someone who could provide me transportation).

On a related note, if anyone has any other recommendations about finding transportation to/from Fanime from where I live, that would also be immensely appreciated! I am really hoping to go to Fanime this year (it's one of the cons I've gone to every year since high school) and this is my first year in college away from the bay area. Thanks in advance for any and all help/advice!

Carpool from San Francisco
« Reply #59 on: May 16, 2012, 07:25:20 PM »

Um I'm not sure if there's a carpool thread yet, but I'm wondering if there's anyone who can carpool me from San Francisco (preferably my house) to Fanime on Friday, 3-4pm? Because I live with my parents, they will want to know some facts about the driver too, so I guess some warning about that would be good too.
Thank you~! I'm really looking forward to this year!

Update
I guess a better request would be wondering if I could get a partner to take the Bart and Caltrain with me? (for security and safety)
