US Airways has been named our official air carrier. US Airways has been gracious in setting travel dates from July 29 through August 16, 1998 and in extending the contract to cover the Baltimore-Washington International (BWI), Washington Dulles (IAD), and Washington National (DCA) airports.
Bucconeer's agreement with US Airways allows our attendees and guests to take advantage of one of two possible discounts. The primary choice will be to call the US Airways Conventions Desk at 800-334-8644 between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (GMT minus 5 hours) to determine the applicable fare and discount for travel to the convention.
When calling for reservations, it is important to refer to Bucconeer’s Gold File #: 68160201.
The discount applies to domestic and international travel in one of the following ways:
1. A 10% discount off any First Class, Business class, or lowest applicable published fare (advance purchase/restricted fare). The discount decreases to 5% when tickets are purchased less than 60 days in advance.According to US Airways, International passengers (those outside the USA) can call the following numbers to make their reservations. Please note: these are not Convention Desk contact numbers, rather they are for International bookings. It is of the utmost importance that you remember to tell them you are with a convention group and what the Gold File number is.2. 15% off unrestricted Coach fare with 60-day advance purchasing and ticketing; 10% off with a seven-day advance purchase.
3. Last, there is a special fare based on region or travel zone available to those who don't meet the requirements of the other options. Details are available directly through US Airways when calling. (This one works best for someone who calls late or leaves before Saturday—but they still require seven or fourteen day advance booking/purchase.)

Please note: US Airways has said that these 800 numbers DO WORK
from some overseas locations.
We have not been told which have and have not functioned - please send
us a message if you have problems making your reservations and we will
attempt to address them in general, not in specific, with the Airline Convention
Agents.
If you are from another region other than those listed above, all we can suggest are the 800 numbers above and then one of the other country contact numbers. If the European agent you contact is more knowledgable and can add to this list, please advise us and we will update accordingly.
