I agree AVN really needs to work on the lines and the time frame. I see no reason what so ever to have to pay higher flight costs cause of CES and new years eve and holiday vacation people flying home- no possibility of extending my room in vegas and 2 hour can line ups cause of CES. 2 weeks later and everyone gets their upgrades on their flights at 1/2 the cost. Rooms are cheaper and you can do anything cause vegas isn't PACKED. I can even get a direct flight if it's a week later - can't do it that the time internext is cause it's too close to the holiday season.
AVN has listened in the past - this is a big one, and i HOPE they do listen up or someone is really gona take this from them and there won't be anything they can do about it.

Exactly...putting all the lines aside, it's the simple fact that the whole show is impossible with it overlapping CES and so close the holidays. It's the simple things that matter as well. Trying to grab a limo, any type of dinner reservation in a decent place, or even catching a cab ends up being a huge production.
Then there's the flights and the room costs. If i wanted to stay an extra day to have a business meeting, aside from the rooms being at unacceptable prices cause of CES, the sad thing is that i simply CAN'T stay another day because they're all booked up....even if i wanted to pay more. I remember telling them i would pay double for the extra day for my room, but they wouldn't have it. No matter how much i offered, i had to leave. How is this helping my business? To have this show right after holidays and overlapping CES is such a joke on all counts.
It truly makes it impossible to do any 'on the fly' type of business with such massive limitations. And this is what AVN doesn't understand....their business model hasn't evolved along with this industries needs and wants.
I'm telling you, someone out there with some drive has a huge opportunity to take over this show and do it up right. It's obvious that AVN won't listen and nor do they care. But i really think it's just a matter of time before the big boys get together and take it over...if they're smart. I mean, someone out there must have some foresight and see this open opportunity..
