You may be able to ask around for roommates here too. I had a chance to go Boston Worlds very last minute, and I wound up rooming with two people from GS. It was a huge life-saver!
yes but that's more than i want to pay. The event rate was reasonable.
I've had one offer already
But no idea where to 'properly' ask.- Joined

I live in San Jose and everyone who says getting around by Uber or Lyft being the easiest options are 100% correct. Uber is huge here and generally easy to get. The only time it might take longer than usual would be immediately after a popular competition.
Does anybody know if I just have tickets for the ladies free skate, can I also attend the senior ladies practice session? I didn't purchase an all-events pass but sort of wish I had!

There are some "OK" deals for hotels. Westin is around $200 I think the Four Points can be had for around $170
TravelZoo had a good hotel deal but it seems to have disappeared. However, the ticket deal is still there!

priceline has a deal right now that i'm 99% sure is the Fairmont (it's the only one in that star category according to past reviews). Strange but if anyone else is looking...

Usually, you are allowed in about an hour before an event. In this particular case, you might now be allowed in till after the Ch Ladies WU. A warmup is different than a practice. The SD is right before the Ladies, of course.
Yes, In your case since you live there, it would have been best to purchase an all event package in the nose bleeds and then individual events you really want to see without binoculars or the Hubble telescope. You can see alot just by watching. But if someone were flying in for just a weekend, it might now be worth it.
I have added Lyft to my phone apps. I am very impressed by Uber and the service they give.

BTW, DASH is free and runs often. I just printed out pages 1 and pages 6. Looks like a good deal. Then print out a google map with the hotels and you will be fine. Lots of good eats around, also.
If you are at the Fairmont, DASH is the bomb!

It was.... I just took the chance and added a night.
You can still purchase an all-event ticket. You might even be able to find one for sale for a deal. Those practice passes are priceless.
I’ve been surprised that I haven’t seen even a few for resale. As of this morning they only had the most expensive all event open (& no championship weekend left).

Post in the "who's going to nationals" thread, for one, and have someone add you to the Slack discussion group. One of those should yield something, if there's anything to be yielded! Hope you find what you need
Thanks! I did post in the “who’s going to nationals” thread. I know nothing about Slack but isn’t it the same people who would be reading here?Post in the "who's going to nationals" thread, for one, and have someone add you to the Slack discussion group.

Current situation: if I can find a roommate/shared room (downtown) by tomorrow I can go. If not, it’s more than I want to spend.

So do you think practice passes will be sold individually if I can't get an all access pass?

You should check out AirBnB. You can get rooms in a shared house for great rates.
There are several options for private rooms in a house in DT San Jose for $65-$80

So my cell carrier is having issues with getting service when their members are trying to use their cellphones outside of Alaska... I may not have a lot of access to the internet/texting while in San Jose ugh! So I may not be able to keep in contact with the group unless I can get on wifi.

Yes it does. I use the free guest WiFi when I go to Sharks games at the SAP Center. https://www.nhl.com/sharks/arena/sap-center-wifi

Hi Toni -- I was wondering about Wi Fi too, and in Post #419, sandi posted the link that shows the arena has Wi Fi. Hooray!
