I am interested in option 2 as well.

Out of interest... How many of the people are male/female? Do you bring your other half with you? Do you have any connection with any of the other flyertalkers here (like in pm's or "real life")? What make/made you decide you want to go? And at last... Why should *I*, a married woman, attend? As I said, I am only curious on this and don't want any "fight", just a friendly chat. :)

Xxx.

1. I am not male/female. I am male.

2. Being happily divorced, I have no other half.

3. I have met many of the other FTers who will be attending and look forward to seeing them again.

4. I have long wanted to visit Prague and doing so with a bunch of FTers makes it even more fun.

5. You should attend because you are a Norwegian woman, which hopefully means you are a blonde, and there can never be enough blondes at a Do.

At least 10 on the "interested" list in post #1 are female. I'm sure there are more but those are the ones I've met.


Do you bring your other half with you?
Some do. Most people come on their own.


Do you have any connection with any of the other flyertalkers here (like in pm's or "real life")?
I think the majority of them already know at least some of the participants - having met at previous DOs. :)


What make/made you decide you want to go?
I've been to Prague once many years ago and I would like to go back.


And at last... Why should *I*, a married woman, attend?
You won't be the only married woman attending without the other half if that's what you are wondering.

Like the final date selection, and highly recommend the IC Prague (see IC forum for info on this hotel and also the highly rates CP Prague)

BTW, you should update the currency section to indicate that the best way to obtain Kc is to use your ATM or debit card at any bank ATM machine. If you use a visa or mc you will be charged 2-3% forex surcharge plus cash advance fees and interest. I believe there are ATMs at the airport. Note that most noncash expenses like hotel bills can be covered with a Capital One visa or mc with no forex surcharges.

servus,

Please put myself and Sue Oz down as interested in attending.

In the context of post #47 above Sue Oz is a married woman and she is married to me!

no-backpacker May 23, 2010 10:33 am

Thanks for the answers! Btw. I am not blond at all, so maybe I should stay at home... :-D

I will think about it. It sounds interesting!

Xxx.

It's a bit far away at the moment but I request that servus put us on his list as "very interested."

BondAir007 May 23, 2010 9:54 pm

Considering it is far off. Please put me down as 'interested'.

Thanks!

This is such a good excuse for me to go to Europe for my birthday on the 13th. Bonus points for our kind host/organizer also being a Gemini!!

Richard Chen May 28, 2010 8:00 am

  1. I'm male though I don't think FT is dramatically male-dominated.
  2. I've no other half, though many on here do.
  3. Yes, and they're great people.
  4. I've only been to 1 DO before (click the link for my testimony).
  5. You should definitely consider coming because of the enjoyment of travel and flying, our initial reason for gathering as a community here.
Hope that helped.

I'm so glad it's option #2. Put me on as interested. Pricing will decide a lot, also, as I often travel solo but am willing to chhange.

I'm really impressed with the detail and foresight already shown in the planning post #1 and am confident it'll be great. You've both help and tolerance from your fellow FTers.

Cheers.

Update: I already allocated all my 2011 vacation days back in 2010 and since I wasn't sure if this DO was sure or not, I thus didn't allocate any vacation days for it thus I'm unable to attend. It does cross just a weekend and could've possibly made it, but a potential CCL (Celebrity Cruise Lines) cruise with 2 friends is undergoing planning.

I'm definitely interested in option#2. Please put me down for +1.

I've always wanted to visit PRG and this is a great incentive. I'll start looking for airfare at 330 days out, in July.

BTW, servus, I'm very impressed with your details, this should be a great DO. Thanks for organizing.

Definitely interested, Have wanted to visit Prague for some time!
