I broke down and called PC Chamber of Commerce, and spoke to the kindest man who happened to be from AL, and he advised us to take 231 from Montgomery, then 87, &167S which turns into 79 at the FL state line, then look for airport signs . He even gave me his cell #! :wub: So thanks to all...

Thanks! I think I might feel the most comfortable taking that 4-lane 231 all the way to 20, even tho it's a little longer. I just wanna be there already! ;-)

Thank you so much, Will B! I feel much more confident now.

Are beach chair/umbrella rental companies still open this time of year? Yes - in my experience. We rent through ResortQuest, and it's included thru the end of Oct. Only problem is that there are fewer "beach dudes" (what we like to call 'em), this month, so they come later in the a.m. -...

I am headed to most beautiful coastline on earth!! We are picking up my cousin Saturday from the new PC Airport (ECP), and coming via this route from Montgomery: 231/87/81/20/79/388 (Thanks to everyone on another post for this!). I've not been to this airport and cannot really get a good...

Um, where can I get some Cactus Juice? (I feel a joke coming) :D

I TOE-tally agree!! I'll be there 10/09 for a week! Can't wait! We love October the best too. No crowds, condo still has beach service, warm water, lovely everything!! What's your best advice on fighting off the dog flies?

We've rented through ResortQuest for many, many years and we do usually get a great deal in the fall. I hope this sale doesn't mean an end to that!

I think it's great news! Hopefully it will mean lower fares from Memphis! As of now, it's cheaper to drive from here to Nashville or Little Rock to fly SW to many destinations.

Southwest-AirTran airline merger I am so excited! It looks like Southwest Airlines will be moving into Memphis! Hopefully that will mean lower rates & better schedules - including flights to the new PC airport! Northwest and Delta have had a lock on us, but this is great news.

Go get 'em!!:clap: Great find! Where did you get it?

We will be coming down on a Sat., after staying in Montgomery on Friday. Good thought about the restaurants! Any suggestions? And hopefully gas stations are around. I will continue to peruse Google/Mapquest.. Thanks so much for your help!

Sounds like the plan for me! Thanks for all the valuable info! We will be extra careful. Really looking forward to being there.

Well..living in Memphis I see Elvis all the time anyway.:D

It seemed that way to me too, the last time I drove! Once I see the Florida line I want to BE on the beach! Thanks for letting me know it's ok to stay on 331. I will probably go to 231 this time though, to be closer to the airport.

Ok, great!! I'll give them a try. Thanks a bunch!

:lol: I want NO impediments along my route to the most beautiful place on earth-cows included! Thanks so very much for this route suggestion; it is one I had been considering. I guess there's not much 4 lane this way but with little traffic it should be good.

Thanks, TreeFrog! Yep, I saw some in Prattville on an internet search, but I've gotten advice to get on thru M'gomery and find a place off of I-85-supposed to be lots of places to stay and eat there too, and maybe a better neighborhood.. I'm still trying to decide on the best route to the new...

Ok, thanks!! Even tho I'm going all the way east to P City airport? Also, any advice on a decent hotel around Montgomery?

Route to new PCB airport from Memphis Hi Margarita!I've been searching posts for the best route to the new PCB airport from Memphis, and was wondering which way you went from Montgomery the last time.. And if anyone else has an easy way to get to the airport, I would surely appreciate it!

Thanks, kurt! I've been reading hotel reviews-funny how it seems folks would rather post negative comments, making the reviews kind of skewed. Anyway, now I'm also trying to decide the best route after Montgomery. To Georgiana or just get on 331..since I'm going further east some map sites say...

Thanks bluecat!! I would definitely rather just motor on, but will probably either have to make a lot of stops to let my mom move around or stay overnight. We have to pick someone up at the Panama City airport around 1 pm so the timing is important. Guess we could leave the before crack of...

Hello! I want to thank everyone for this forum-I have been a lurker for years and have learned so much and lived vicariously through all the wonderful natives and visitors alike. Finally made the decision to come down again in Oct. Yay! Does anyone have a suggestion on a safe place to stay...
