We're looking at attending ourselves. Would love to make my way back to Boston, great venue.

12:15 AM, but you're right--most of the subway shuts down a little after midnight. However, not much is going on in Boston's nightlife around that time anyway. If needed, there are plenty of taxis to get you around after that.

Hi Jeff,

I'd suggest to probably just get a taxi from Hynes convention center to Logan. If your flight is at 6PM, going from the Green line (at Hynes) to the Red line (at Park Street) in order to change to the Silver Line (at South Station) to Logan, it might take you some time, especially if you're unfamiliar with where to go.

I am no longer able to attend HC 2012. I will be in Hawaii that week.

We will definitely be there! Only about 3 hours away from here.

I'm planning to attend.

I'll be there, my first time attending.

Anyone have any opinions as to highlights in past years? Just wondering what people really want to see/learn about at an event like this.

Actually, no. It expands well beyond WHT membership.

Well, he is partially correct.

$79 - $729, depending on when and what you book. If you had registered just a few weeks ago, the cost for the full conference without lunch was $289 per person - a real steal.

Just a warning, Active Breakdown Lanes on the highway during the rush hour periods

any chance we can get some more King rooms added to the group rate? I'm not sure if there ever were any, or if they're just out... but it is looking like the Hilton across the street for us unless they get some king rooms on the group rate - even as an SPG member, they're quoting me stupid money for a king room outside the group rate... kind of annoying really...
