If I was, theoretically, planning to extend my trip to the States in July so I can take in San Diego Comic Con... two questions.

Do I have to pay if I don't want a four-day pass?

And what is the best way to get from DC to San Diego, bearing in mind I have three days to kill in between?

If you want to pre-reg, yeah, you have to pay for the four-day pass. IIRC, the only way to not get a four-day pass is to wait in the (long, on the first day, not so long if you get on the other days, though I don't know exactly how long from experience since I've always got the four-day passes*) line at the con. The four-day pass also gets you into preview night on Wednesday night.

*We don't always attend all four days of con, we just get them because, really, it's a lot more convenient that way.

Hrm.

I'd suggest you fly and spend the extra days either in San Diego or in DeeCee.

The US is _big_. Keep this in mind. It's not like your podunk island. ;)

By way of Boston, obviously.

As people have said, if you're pre-registering then yeah, all four days. If you're willing to wait in lines then you can buy them one at a time.

If you're willing to take the chance that it might not amount to anything, there is a not terrible possibility that I might have a badge to lend out for a day or so. I can't promise but we do usually have an extra badge at the booth.

For travelling, fly. It's the only sane way to get across the country.

KATE! Holy hell. Fly to San Diego. Or you can even fly to Vegas, we'll take care of you, and then you can do the five hour drive to San Diego or take a commuter flight back to San Diego.

BUT COME SEE US! Jess and I will get you tickets to see SHOWS. See? We win. (VEGAS)
