a friend and I get in to JAX around 10:30 am on Friday, and need to find a ride up to the Fest. Will definitely pitch in for gas or for a rental car.
Also need a ride back to JAX monday morning.

Me and my friend are looking to do the same: fly to JAX Friday morning, drive to Gainsville, then head back up to JAX Monday morning to fly out. I saw a company who will make the drive for $130. There's two of us, how many of you guys would there be? Depending on how many people we have splitting the $130 might not be so bad

Hey! I'm also arriving at JAX around 10:20 and am trying to return Monday morning. A possible alternative would be renting a car from Enterprise (right in the JAX airport) and return it that day at Gainsville International. Its only $30 for a day rental and it'd be super cheap with 5 of us chipping in for the rental/gas. We could also rent a car back to JAX Monday morning. Let me know! :D

hey guys, so I checked enterprise and the cheapest they have for the day is $56.85. Including gas and a taxi to the Holiday Inn for registration (cause you have to return the car to another airport so it'd have to be Gainesville), it would end up being a little cheaper going the rental route but I think it'd be more of a hassle to get the car, drive to GNV to drop it off, then get a taxi down to the Fest rather than just having a company pick us up from JAX and drop us off at the Holiday Inn for $150 total. With five of us, we'd only be saving about $10 each and personally I'd rather be able to relax than save ten bucks. Let me know what you guys think

if that's the case, I'm down for the rental. Just to clarify, is it $150 for all of us, as in, we don't need to pay per person but are simply splitting the cost? let's start coordinating off the board. shoot me an email! monicadcarr@gmail.com

I'm looking to fly into and out of Jax Friday/Monday as well, and carpool/rideshare to Fest on Friday morning. Anyone with space available or looking to split a rental or transport, please PM me.

I get discounted car rentals so we could save some money going that route if you are out of town festers flying in. Riding with some JAX kids would be great too.

Also flying out Monday morning. Hit me up so we can save some moneys! More merch!!!

This will be my fifth Fest. Fest friends forever!

Hey everyone, I'm staying with my folks in Jacksonville but I'm looking for a ride to Gainesville for two people. I can possibly rent a car and split costs. I'd like to leave Jacksonville on Friday around noon. I'd also like to return to Jax Sunday night or early Monday morning.

ALTERNATIVE: if you got two seats open in your car, I'd love to be in on that and will give you gas money and beer! Whatever the case, please message me if you're looking for a rideshare.
