I went last year. We used the shuttle service.. Sunday was a bitch to leave, two+ hours in line for the bus... Just paid the tariff to park on site this year.

Couple things I remember.

1. Hotels were booked, I saw Hampton Inn rates at $500-$600 / nt
2. AUS airport was booked, all flights were expensive due to demand
3. They ran out of rental cars at AUS. They even brought in thousands of extra cars
4. Even with all the overbookings, it was a blast!

With that said, last year I flew to DFW, drove a few hours down. DFW did not run out of rental cars. I already booked my 2013 trip through DFW.

I would suggest you make sure transportation, hotel, airfare is all set before you buy your tickets.

Good luck!!
