If I'm in Dubai then, I'd like to attend as well. So, put as a "maybe" until things develop....

Booked it!

Arriving on Lufthansa on the 23rd, departing on the 28th.

I guess that makes me a definite.

The Le Meridian has an advance purchase rate of AED260++, which is about 55 quid!

Cheers,
Rick

Just a point... you say that the Do is from the 24th-27th. But you also say you are meeting up on the Thursday, which is the 23rd.

Have I booked a day too late (I get in very late on the 23rd)? I should be able to change if necessary.

Cheers,
Rick

Hello! Yea I'd like to know about the timings as well for events running from the 23rd. I'm thinking of flying in via Lufthansa or Swiss in.

This sounds very exciting!

I used 55K Continental miles to get business class on LH. Out via Frankfurt, back via Munich.
