The Hilton Walt Disney World Resort is now sold-out before and after 
the 802 conference dates but a very limited number of rooms remain 
for arrival on or after March 13th and departing on or before March 
18th.  If you want to stay longer, we suggest you book within these 
dates now and then request to extend your dates just prior to 
check-in after the late cancellations have occurred.  These rooms 
will go quickly though, so if you have not made your room 
reservations yet, we strongly suggest doing it NOW !!!

Overflow Arrangements:
We have arranged for additional rooms at the Wyndham Palace Resort 
and Spa in the Walt Disney World Resort.  The Wyndham is conveniently 
located next to the Hilton, an easy (10-minute) walk.  The IEEE 802 
room rate at the Wyndham Palace is $135.00 single/double occupancy.
