Quick update:
The dinner cruise: since the commitment was due yesterday, I went ahead and confirmed 18 participants. The invoice just came in, its due February 28.
LHT tour: the final confirmation is still pending, but it will be limited to 22 participants. However some confirmed participants may opt out, so the waitlist looks good to clear. In order to get a good guide and see some meaningful action, we may have to move the LHT tour to saturday afternoon, so don't make any fix plans for that afternoon.

First of all thank you for the organizing efforts, oliver2002. Having the LHT tour on Saturday afternoon would be favourably for me (+1/+2) as hotel prices are rather high that weekend thus we could leave Hamburg on Saturday late at night.

Another update: we'll stick to the Sunday plan for the LH Technik tour, to take the stress out. Also it looks like the tour cost will be picked up by LH. ^ Stay tuned!
For Saturdays Airbus tour I'm looking at chartering the bus (which we have for the tour inside the plant) to pick us up in downtown Hamburg, since getting to XFW with public transport will be time consuming. This will bump up the cost a bit, but not by much (90€ more for the group).
We still have spots on the Airbus tour, please tell anyone who could possibly be interested so we leverage the cost for each participant.@:-)

Look at Oliver's chart on page 1 to see the 'pax list' for the events.

Just dropping in on this thread to say hello. I won the raffle for the JU-52 ride and I'll also be joining you guys for a few of the other events. I've got to say, I probably wouldn't have thought to attend the port festival if it weren't for this DO, but it's shaping up to be a very fun weekend.

Update:
I just paid 1890€ for the dinner cruise to make the Feb 28 deadline.
Booking stats:
Airbus tour: 33 booked, 7 open, capacity 40
LH tour : 21 booked, 6 waitlist, capacity 22
Dinner Cruise: 19 booked, capacity 18
We had 2-3 folks on the fence, so I think the LH tour waitlist should mostly clear .
I will send out a PM on how to send me the cash (via paypal or wire) shortly.
