Hey honey, would you like to have a romantic weekend get away for just us two? Don't mind the guy sleeping in the other bed, it's how I got us a discounted room! Yeah and I'll be away all day at a conference you'll think is as exciting as watching paint dry, but you could do fun things by yourself while I party and get drunk! It'll be awesome, I promise.

There is an amazing Spa about 20 minutes from the conference area. You could get her a couple days at the Spa for your anniversary!

No, I'm being optimistic. I hope he does indeed have a 10th anniversary next July. If he spends it at MC2017, I'm not so optimistic about the 11th...

Actually the odds are that she will be in Japan with the kids. So, most likely, I will either be flying back, and attending MC jet lagged, or leaving for Japan directly after MC.

My Wife is coming with me, as we are planning to include our vacation after the conference. Need to find some fun activities for her while am attending MC2017. If not, I'm sure she will figure out something!

Hi all
I am back!
Looking at the ticket rates now. The cheapest I could find is from DXB to JFK and thinking about driving as mentioned by @scottalanmiller from JFK to ROC (5 hours). DXB to JFK is $1209.91
https://i.imgur.com/nqO09ZE.pngCheaper than DXB direct to ROC ( Chepest- Egypt Air $1990.74 and $2020.15 for Air France) I guess with DXB to JFK and then a rent a car would still be cheaper. Suggestions please. But then i need to come back to JFK to end the trip (Unless there is a rent a car system where i can drop the car on a different location!)
-
For a bit more ($1632.45) i can get Qatar airways and reach at day time which is easier i guess!

Some, not Enterprise, will allow for drop off at different airports. Just have to ask before booking cars.
-
Alamo is pretty good about that here in the Rochester area.
-
Turkish can be great for flying. Also, Amtrak (train) from JFK is possible. It is a little work and can take quite a long time but it is very comfortable and easy.

Trains are for those with nothing else to do...

The train takes only slightly longer than driving it, if the train is running on time that is (that line is usually pretty good in the summer months).

Actually, quite the opposite. On the train you have Internet, power and plenty of space. You can be very productive on trains and they let you rest or sleep, which is a big deal, especially if you've just been flying a long way and might have jet lag or no chance to sleep. Driving completely takes your attention and requires that you be able to control your sleep schedule before and after.
