Awesome. I went in November 2017.
I even walked from the airport to the Rock Hotel, where I stayed last time, gave me a good tour of town and great to walk across the runway.

I suspect most of us are already booked into the HIX. Breakfast is included in all rates. Did you get a flexible rate or advance purchase? If AP it’s gone up a few quid since the weekend, although not surprising as a decent number of rooms for the Saturday will have been sold.

Have started to populate the opening posts on the thread. The accommodation one is fairly self explanatory. Interesting to note that the hotel advertises a 24hour lounge.
The third post is related to activities, including eating and drinking in GIB. If anybody has any ideas or suggestions then please do share. I don't propose doing anything too formal or actually anything that requires a lot of planning, but would be good to have something prepared even if it's just a venue for a drink on the Saturday evening. Also, it's a little too soon to be organising anything. Personally, I like the idea of a few drinks and a meal (even if it is just a pub meal that we can get as and when we like). Given that the first flight back is at 3.15pm we may want to look to have a plan for to do something on the Sunday morning - again, either organised or ad hoc.
Fortunately, there is no pool and so @bisonrav will not need to model his mankini this time (those of you going to PHX will know what I am referring to!)
