Unfortunately you need to take a bus from the airport to the Nice train station. I didn't do it but my mom and my friend Justin did and they both said it was really easy. I can get more info for you and shoot a PM in a few days.

I hear Lee Jones is in cohorts with the Monte Carlo mafia, they will probably have you shot.

hi Mom - check out Swiss European Air, ORD>Zurich>Nice, $589 R/T according to Orbitz - never used it, but, wow, can't believe the price...but, Oh, wait...gobbo will probably want extreme ozzie$$ 1st class via a major carrier - would not blame him

best of luck to gobbo

If it comes down to it (a conflict where they insist you have to wear the gear and you refuse) you will likely be banned from playing at the site. It's happened in at least two instances I know of. I think it's a joke that they expect us to wear their gear the entire time with no additional compensation, but somehow I don't recall Yellowsuck wearing their logo during the FT. Jeff?

Last year the helicopter ride was paid for by Stars and it was pretty cool. I think it's 110 Euro or so and a taxi is around 80 Euro. The helicopter also takes like 5 minutes while the cab was around 30-45 I think. The best thing to do, if noone is paying for you, is to take the train for about 2 Euro. Not very baller but ya know, a penny saved.

micon refused, and wasnt banned, if its his money, and not the FPPs, then i don't think they will ban you.

OK, the time was misleading for the helicopter but still, you get to ride in a helicopter over the Mediterranean and descending on Monte Carlo is cool even if it isn't right on the roof of the casino or whatever. Anyway...

OK. I agree with you here. If you have never been in a helicopter before,
then its probably worth the thrill.

So helicopter rides are cool, in general? I've never been on one--don't they crash like 80% of the time? I'm honestly torn between train, taxi and 'copter. Is the train option door to door, or does it involved cabs on both ends?
