**Note: For every 30-40 tickets booked through these Meeting codes, NSF earns one complimentary domestic ticket. These tickets will be used to fly in pronouncers who cannot afford to pay their way to help NSF National Finals during 2007. So please make every effort to use these discounts. If you are able to get a better rate somewhere else, mention it to the reservation agent and they may be able to match it. It truly could be a win-win for all of us!
