I booked mine last night, belatedly discovering that flights are full and I got stuck with an unfortunate schedule.

I recommend that all those going to Dconf book their travel arrangements ASAP!

Also, I remember last year some people had trouble getting visas in time - there can be long bureaucratic delays. It's never too early to get passports and visas straightened out.

The preferred hotel is the Aloft Silicon Valley. Be sure and book soon!

I booked speculatively last month and the flights were already filling up. Alaska Airlines has flights every two hours from Seattle and every 3-4 hours from Portland. But the times can be pretty unfortunate... I imagine that since most colleges are winding down and graduating classes this time of year that is what is putting stress on the airline schedules...

I hope it's only flights from Seatle that are full.  IIRC I'll be connecting from Philly

There's a fair amount of commuting from Seattle - San Fran of tech workers. It's a short enough flight to make that practical.
