    Which airport do you recommend flying into?

    There are zero flights that don't go through Dallas anyway, and most have a three hour layover.

    Am I missing something, or should I just drive the two hours from Dallas to the Falls?

    Best is to fly into DFW. Drive up is more like 1.5-1.75 hr.

    Greetings from Greece.
    Would you recommend a particular hotel or motel close to the venue?
    If I'm travelling from Europe I would have to arrive Thursday and leave Monday, correct?
    And finally how does one drive from the airport, taxi? Bus? What would be the best choice?
    Excuse me for all the questions but I've never been in the US.

    If you're able to rent a car, that may be best. Driving in the US isn't nearly as crazy as Greece, so you should be fine. It's about a 2 hour drive from the Dallas and Oklahoma airports. You could Uber as well. That will run you about $150 from what I've heard.

    Depends on what you want to spend for hotels. La Quinta by the university is good . The Hampton Inn by the mall is also fine.
    They Baymont and the Days Inn are on the less expensive side but further from the gym.

    Hi Pete, is this Wichita Falls seminar a regularly scheduled event in early December each year?

    Yiassou Pete!
    And thanks a lot for the info.
    I would really like to come to a seminar this year and I would prefer it to be the one in Wichita Falls.
    Although if I remember well, I think the plane tickets to Baltimore were much cheaper from Greece..
    Anyway thanks again.

    είμαι ο Παναγιώτης, but most people can't pronounce it.
    Where in Greece are you? Eventually I'd like to come do a training camp in Thessaloniki.
