FT Mini Meeting in CPH

We are considering a Mini FT get-together in CPH around 7/1/01.

Confirmed so far:
AAPlatinum
Goldlust

I'll be doing a guided tour in CPH. Everybody is more than welcome to come, maybe we could dinner as well.

More information will follow but first we want to see how many FT'ers are interested in coming. By the way: CPH is a VERY nice Airport and the SK lounges there are said to be some of the nicest in the entire * Alliance.

Golddust,

If United offers a fare sale... you will probably be able to count me in!

Will keep my fingers crossed.

Goldlust,

I look forward to your tour and to seeing your beautiful city. I arrive on Saturday, 30-Jun. Perhaps we could have the dinner that night in case some members have to fly back on Sunday.

Is there a KLM lounge at CPH? I'm flying over using up some old CO miles on the NW/KL codeshare.

Hmmm, July (Q3) is about when I need to do a 30,000+ type mileage run.

Where does UA fly that is closest to Copenhagen? That is the problem for me. Seems like DUS or FRA or CDG .... anyone know - Kempis perhaps (!) if there are sensible priced round trip SAS flights from any of those ports to Copenhagen? Ua does decent priced SYD-DUS or SYD-LHR flights but offer no sensible add ons.

Glen, what about a combo of paid-UA flights to Europe, then an award ticket to CPH? You can get a intra-European coach ticket on LH for 20,000 miles.

Distance information
CDG-CPH 634 miles
DUS-CPH 385 miles
FRA-CPH 422 miles
LHR-CPH 594 miles

I would try to contact SAS in Australia and ask what kind of price you could get for the flights mention above. I am sure some kind of European Airpass is avaible. Phone: 02-9299 9800

Thanks. Just checked, but exact conditions UA fare for the France wine tasting weekend (Nov) is $A500 less than same UA fare from here via USA to selected Europe from June 1-August 20. The penalty of trying to fly during the European summer, so need to scratch that one unless a fare change happens. If this one below was really bookable I'd look at it, but looks really weird to me, as LH only flies as far as BKK or SIN or HKG as far as I know? If they allowed a switch from Madrid to Copenhagen would be neat!

LH codeshare flights from both BKK&SIN to Australia. For instance LH6386 between SIN-MEL which is operated by SQ and LH6306 BKK-SYD which is operated by TG.
