I have a flight on All Nippon Airways leaving at 6:30am to head home. I called the airline, and they said that their checkin is 3:30 to 5:30am, which is a brutal window to get to the airport. Looking at http://www.changiairport.com/en/flight/airlines.html, the airport said that they have early checkin. However, in calling the 800 number, the lady said that this is not the case. My goal was to do an early checkin around 10pm, get through security, and crash at the transit hotel. That way, it would be nearly stress-free to catch my flight. Any other suggestions? Has anyone tried this recently at SIN?

Reconfirming my confirmed attendance. I will be in SIN most of the week, flying out after dinner on 14th. Looking forward to catching up...subject to my demented memory loss.

For the SIN DO portion, can everyone please add your details to the spreadsheet. For the events, just put an X if you will attend and leave the others blank. I want to try to get this list finalized within the week for final attendee counts.

Thanks for setting up the worksheet! I've added my details. Looking forward to it!

No idea about the early check in, but the crowne plaza is attached to the airport and security is painless.

FlyingExplorer will also be in LPQ.

I'm posting the sightseeing itinerary when I get on my other system.

Unfortunately, I have a work conflict prevent me from heading to Asia until Wednesday so am missing LPQ and heading to SIN directly and will be adding an official Friday lunch to the schedule.

I think I counted 7 people in LPQ. Are we planning on meeting somewhere? I've never been so wouldn't know what to suggest.

​​​​​​ I'm with zcat now we are going to arrange a dinner on Tuesday night. Zcat will ask his hotel for recommendations but please post if you're interested so we have an approximate headcount. We will post here once we know the venue. Also zcat is going to talk to his hotel about arranging a Mekong Delta tour on Wednesday also please post if you're interested so we have an approximate headcount.
