    hey, a group of us thinking of heading to HB for the summer, just wondering if anyone knows the story with flights i.e where do we fly to, how much is it usually (everywhere is giving us totally different prices) and would it be easier to fly to LA and drive down to HB? Any info on the area would be great as well..thanks :)

    hey pittsnoodles...u fly into LAX, were from donegal, so we need to travel down to dublin. we booked with USIT, they did flights and all for us, were flying with british airways..u shud get flights sorted asap, cos they are just gonna get dearer as time passes. were going dublin airport - london heathrow - LAX. flights cost us about 400e then with taxes added on which is like 300e, came to about 700e for the flights!

    Has anyone been 2 Newport Beach? Is the accommodation dearer than Huntington Beach and is it easier to get jobs in Newport than Huntington?

    What is the story with everyone going 2 Huntington Beach this year?? :)

    havent been to newport beach...but every one is stayin in huntington beach, so all the parties will be there id say...and newport is only 10 mins down the road, so u can go down there like anytime....and people go out down there all the time.

    saaj89.......Have looked into accommodation....Huntington seems cheaper?? theres 2 of us going but gonna try and find housemates!
    Newport and Huntington are only 10 mins apart or something so I doubt it makes much odds?!
    Where were u looking for jobs? craigslist was it?

    John 20 your actually gas everytime someone asks about Newport you insist on shiteing on about how you'll be in Huntington. Would you please relocate yourself to the Huntington Forums cus I'm sick of your hooptalk, If i see ya anywhere near Newport i'll be pointing you back in the direction of Huntington... since ya love it so much like....

    Now now John, theres a feewwww problems here, One of them being that I can't quite seem to get away from your comments cause you've posted your hooptalk on every thread fucking possible you unviable loser, and also you clearly know FUCK ALL as i already have a job in Cali lined up cause I'm not some illiterate retard and have to wimp out to New York like yourself, so to make the obvious more infact OBVIOUS I "don't like" your irrelevant "advice" nor how you feel the need to voice it everywhere possible. So if you wanna add me on Facer after the summer i'd be MORE then delighted to hit you up with the photos of my unreal 3 MONTH stay in California with not a picture of me crying or my mother in sight. Enjoy New York though, I heard the disgraceful humidity, the outrageous gang and other violence and high price of living will make for a great J1!

    didnt know there were red light districts in Cali...thats good to know. yeah i suppose you are right about the high price of living which is why u have to go to cali cos ur a peasant who cant afford decent accom...sucks to be you. try not to get injured on another airplane crash out there...then again...please do..enjoy ur j1..im sure the roasting weather right at the sea (obvious sarcasm in case you couldnt pick up on that....) and the foggy days from the ocean and the santa ana winds will be really quite spectacular..enjoy again.
