This is vacation?
If I didn't have a training budget, I suppose I'd have to use vacation to attend.

Definitely ask for one at your next job. Though, short of $5K+, I don't expect you'll go to much dedicated training, it will be more conferences like SW and MLcon.
I'm budgeted for $2500/yr which includes transportation, hotel and meals. Dedicated Cisco training that it's local, for example, the class will be $3500+. Sure there are less expensive ones, but those seem less common.

I've found a lot of places don't believe in budgets. (I do.)
If we can afford it and its a need, we do it.

Well... I'm on United, so I guess we'll catch up Friday.... maybe Saturday morning.

I don't believe in budgets, but I do believe that training is an essential cost of supporting any department.

Did you see that @MarigabyFrias is here waiting to see you?
-
There is a free shuttle to/from the airport.
-
That's awesome!
-
Does the HI run the shuttle?

Yeah that's really more I mean about believing in budgets.
I feel like if you give people a budget, they'll spend every penny of it.
Have a non-monetary plan in place, and then purchase as needed/available.

Yes.
Give them a call when you land.

You, my friend, are at a distinct advantage.
-
Hmmm, now I don't feel so bad being on a smallish American Airlines plane.
If you consider 50 seats small.

You have apparently never tried to go from Chicago to St Louis on Amtrak.
@scottalanmiller claims that this line is decent, so giving it a go.
