Frequently asked questions

Yes, but just let us know prior to the trip. We will make sure you know the times to meetup at Embassy Suites on Friday & Saturday.
Savannah Hilton Head Airport is charming and very easy to fly into. While the hotel does not offer an airport shuttle, it is a quick Uber or Taxi ride to the historic district of Savannah. Of course, from many states you may find that it’s easier to simply drive and have your car for further exploration pre or post trip!
If you are a Jacket flying solo and wish to find a roommate to potentially split the hotel cost, let us know when you purchase your Tour Package and we will put you in touch with anyone else having the same desire. We recommend you still reserve a room that can be canceled just in case, and cannot guarantee you will find a roommate.
Questions? Contact Fred Carlson CE ‘01, MBA ‘04 at 678-358-5567 or fred.carlson@servacations.com
Absolutely! Embassy Suites will do it’s best to offer shoulder dates at the same rate based on availability. Contact us if you would like help booking those after registration.
During the day in your free time, you will be just a short walk from River Street and all the historic attractions that Savannah has to offer. We encourage you to consider the following attractions that you may also find interesting: - Savannah History Museum - Juliet Gordon Low House - Girl Scouts Museum - Andrew Lowe House - Savannah Riverboat - The Beach Institute - Wormsloe State Historic Site - Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD) - Fort Pulaski or Fort Jackson - Green-Meldrim House - Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist - Congregation Mickve Israel Historic Synagogue - Tybee Island (Lighthouse, Pier, Shopping)
After the first game against UGA we think you will be raring and ready to see Tech face off against another opponent and go after the crown as tournament champion. However, we will have a return to the hotel after dinner Saturday if you wish to only attend Friday night’s game and make other plans for Saturday night.
On Friday, you may or may not have the option to watch University of Florida play Tennessee depending on the location and time of the pregame party. Likely it will be at Enmarket Arena during the previous game and you can view as you wish. However, on Saturday night depending on game time, we may offer multiple shuttles to/from the hotel so that you can choose to stay for just one or watch both hockey games.
