[Nfbc-info] NFBC-Info Digest, Vol 144, Issue 17

Mon May 22 01:31:21 UTC 2017

Ok guys all roads lead to Orlando,
San Francisco is the cheapest airport that I have found, as they have a flight costs $206 one-way, and $412 round trip. Next cheapest airport to fly out of Los Angeles. There's a cheap tickets flight for $430 round-trip $215 one-way The next flatter was not really that cheap is San Diego at $452 round trip. Let me know if you've found   that information  helpful.

> Hello all,
> Hello my name is Jordan Mirander, and I am in desperate, dier need of a male roommate to this year's Convention of the national Federation of the blind. Which will take place at the Rosen shingle Creek resort in Orlando Florida on July 10 through the 15th. I am a first timer. I would love to go to the convention, however without a male roommate I am financially unable to make this trip a reality. $563 is too steep right now for me. However, if you are interested please call 9514547586, or email me at jordanmirander at icloud.com
