INDIA MINI - Do 2022
Was recently reminded that it's been 10 years since the last Flyer Talk India Mini - Do. That was way back in January of 2012. It was a small & fun gathering over lunch in Delhi and of course a whole lot of banter on all the usual topics. INDIA MINI - Do 2012

Wondering what you folks make of putting together another Flyer Talk INDIA MINI - Do 2022 sometime in December of this year perhaps ?
It's a few months out and gives folks time to plan. An evening meetup with drinks and dinner is what one was envisioning.

Completely open to ideas on possible locations (city wise) for this and possible dates as well..

As of now it's looking like the following:

DATE:
Evening of December 10th, 2022 (Saturday)

I'm up for another Mini-Do (or Mega-Do) in December. Delhi would be my preferred location but I am open to other cities as well.

Goa would require a lot of time... BOM/DEL would be easier...

I am OK with anywhere in India. Del / Bom works great too.

Aerocity may work best for DEL. Lots of hotels of various budgets and loyalty affiliations in one area; multiple F&B options and also close to airport.

I agree. Aerocity is a great option. I frequently have meetings there with clients based in Gurgaon. It serves as a mid point for both of us & has a lot of great restaurant options.

Then we could possibly keep Aerocity as a location.
Would also need to zero in on a rough date as well. Was thinking somewhere Pre Christmas.
Once the date and venue get tentatively inked in, will then add this info to the opening post and hopefully we can get a few more folks onboard.
