Just a reminder to everyone that if you need to contact Bernie, do so by the 30th (this Friday, as he's going to be offline for a while. This post (below) was on p. 5 of this thread.

"U P D A T E
Including RTWSTARALLIANCE we now are 48 at the fireworks and 51 for Saturday's excursion. Since I've reservation for a 50seater coach, we will be fully booked. I'd of course book a bigger one - but I won't do so just "guessing". Everybody please feel free to enter the "waitlist" but please do so by May 30th. I'll have a group to Brazil from June 1st - 18th ... and some vacation after that returning back home June 26th, so I might not be able to take care of things well during that time."

Bernie,

I am all set for DUS III. I sent some mail to you. I am interested in all the events from Friday evening on to Sunday evening. (I should already be confirmed for everything). I arrive in DUS around 5PM on the 18th. (Friday).

I got some mails regarding a lower budget hotel in DUS

I highly recommend the "Börsenhotel", which is just around the corner from the Nikko with the very same advantages re location. Official rate is 58 € incl. breakfast. I'm quite sure I could get a better deal, if there would be some 10 rooms (I do quite some business with them). So if anybody would be interested just let me know by Sunday.

Sorry no FF points http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

"ALT ALT ALT ALT!" (by wingless, BlondeBomber et al.)

watch out, if you are not ordering beer, somebody would think you are calling for me (alt = old = calling the 'old' one in german ...)

This might be the Hotel for you then Rudi? http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

Bernie, I would be interested if it gets the ball rolling for 10 bookings. I booked Marriott Courtyard already (cancellable) which I guess is somewhat further from Nikko than "Börsenhotel"? I do not recall actually being in Hotel room very much at all on the previous DUS DOOOS so which Hotel is not a big issue. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Count me in on the Borsenhotel. Being close to the events is very good. My other reservation is cancellable.

Sorry to have left my participation up in the air so long, but my schedule looks as though it's getting clearer, and I'm now planning to attend.

Got a good rate at the Sheraton 4-Points, plan to arrive Friday afternoon (not sure yet whether driving or Railing) and leave either Sunday evening (if Railing) or Monday morning (if driving -- and drinking on Sunday).

Please include me on the waiting list for Friday evening fireworks and for the castle visit Saturday afternoon.

I sure hope nothing comes up to interfere with this!

That's great. I haven't seen you since the PIP in ... how many years has that been now?
I hope your plans don't change.
