CeBIT DO anyone?
When in chat with my new chat buddy Uli we thought it would be nice to see if any FT members will be at CeBIT in Hannover? (March 13-20, www.cebit.de)
It might be nice to have a little meet and greet there...
Anyone?

peter,
yes, i did. acutally i think the guarantee is not for intra-german flight, as long as LH did not change their policy. anyway, i was able to reserver last week for three days. i just booked the most overbooked flights (the one arriving HAN before 9 and leaving HAN after 6:30) from/to FRA. Was waitlisted at the travel agency, after calling SEN service I received my confirmation immediately. Neither travel agency nor SEN service ever doubted I could get on this flight.
As of now some A320 services are upgraded to A300 -- and I am sure 90% of the PAX will be SENs
I have tried to book flights to CeBIT two weeks ago for a friend from Taiwan and the leg FRA-HAN was just not available; waitlist closed. Anyway, use your SEN card and I am sure you will be fine.
BTW, ScottC also told me about the 75 Euro heli service from the airport to the show which I just booked for all three days and which seems to buy me some more valuable time on the show.
Back to the topic: No more of you going to CeBIT? I am there Friday, Saturday and Tuesday -- would be happy to be part of some FT lunch! Or anyone on those flights?

Scott, why dont you just set a meeting date and see who is coming? Otherwise we wont get to a conclusion ...
I will be there Friday, Saturday and Thursday and use the morning and evening flights to FRA as well as the Meravo Heli Services.
