Another cheap hotel chain (I really like) is Motel One. They have two properties in Nuremberg - and they are budget design hotels.

Mark us as definite. Arriving 5/30 on AFHop!1210 (what in the world is Hop!?) and staying again at Le Meridien thru Monday morning. frantic says that she is hoping that f0zzyNUE includes Regensburg as the day trip since she has always wanted to see it.

It's great that you guys are going to make it! See you there.

Hop! is AF's lcc - or sth like it, but I am sure some creative guys got paid tons of money to come up with that name!

It will likewise be very good to see you again.

I generally am dismissive of any product or service that uses an exclamation point but this was a free add-on to an award ticket MIA-CDG so they got our business (but only in SkyPesos, not cash).

No more secret - we will have the day trip to Regensburg

BTW, HOP! on the CDG-NUE segment is like flying Air France (the service is a wet lease). They even serve a sandwich in economy (whereas on HOP! very own routes serves sweet or savory snack like three pretzels in a smallish bag) and I should have pictures of business class meals on that route. (and there is now a decent lounge in Terminal 2G in CDG - no more chicken battery).

Yay for Regensburg! Haven't been there since I was little!

And in case there was any doubt of my being confirmed, I should be arriving in NUE around 2pm on LH2158 Thurs May 31st. Staying at Le Meridien. Forgive me if my brain is mush for any activities that evening as I will be coming in from SYD via BKK and MUC with a couple 6-8 hour layovers (yay for TG spa), so please, no moaty beer that night.

Thurstday night will be traditional "Barfuesser" night -- you should come hungry ...

I will confirm Friday night through Sunday, staying at Le Meridien or Sheraton.
Coming in with Deutsche Bahn from famous Stuttgart Main Station, which is under long-lasting construction like BER.

I‘m a maybe for Thursday, but can‘t be with you on Friday. I can‘t take the day off at work.

Sorry I have to cancel. The sixties birthday of my "father in law" is on this weekend. I wish all of you a great time. The Nurnberg DO program was always excellent and I'm sure it will be as good as before this time, too.
