Albuquerque balloon fest

Anyone ever flown to the balloon festival? What airport? Where to stay? Any other comments.
 
I occasionally fly to ABQ for work and a couple years ago one of my trips coincided with the festival. I always park at KABQ because it's close to my office. Cutter is a very good FBO there. Albuquerque has plenty of hotels to choose from but book early as some of them will fill up. Enjoy!
 
KAEG

I was comfortable at Double Eagle KAEG during Baloon Fiesta. Plenty of tiedowns, good weather. :)
 
Double Eagle II

KAEG is very convenient location but the fuel prices are pretty high.
Stop down in Belen (E80) for cheaper fuel.
Plenty of room, friendly airport.
