Description
Georgia Tech is 8-0 and currently has an 82% probability (highest in the ACC) of playing in the ACC Championship Game in Charlotte, NC! Many of you have suggested that you would like to travel to Charlotte if Tech makes it. There’s a long way to go, but hotel rates are rising due to a national cheerleading tournament and other holiday events in town that weekend, so SerVacations has done all the legwork for a potential trip so that you don’t have to!
Reserve your spot with a fully refundable deposit of $100pp. If Tech does not make it to the game, you will receive a prompt refund and you can choose to keep your hotel reservation or cancel it yourself up until 72 hours before check-in. If Tech clinches, your payment method will automatically be charged for the balance.
As is the case with most of our tours, you have the option to drive or fly on your own to meet us in Charlotte, but we will also be offering deluxe roundtrip bus transportation from Atlanta for only $120pp! (see below)
All guests driving themselves or flying should plan on arriving at the hotel by 3pm on Thursday, December 4th so that they can settle into the hotel and be ready to depart for the welcome Holiday Dinner Show event at 5pm.
