I might go for the on-site parking, or I might fly, not sure yet (it's an eight hour drive for me...) but I deffo like the idea of it being in Berlin. Dates are far enough ahead that I can plan, this should be OK. Once we have the group of people penned in, we can discuss group discounts. i think 20 people is ambitious, especially given some people's tendency to say "yes, I'll come" and then ditching you towards the end. If you have paid an up-front charge and a few people don't show, that's your money gone. So we want to be a bit cautious with that. I do like that you've picked a place and a date without too much hassle. I can tell you're used to wrangling small children efficiently. Which is, essentially what this is, except less diaper changing. Well done you. I don't think we should orient our budget in GBP though, by July those are going to be worth less than 1€ and it will badly skew the price expectations of those of us not from the Land of Leaving. Let's try and do the math in Euros Edited November 2, 2016 by DuckyofDeath123 zigge_51 and JAYsus_NL 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

If you want to share with someone, then please discuss with said person and arrange payments to each other so you can book the room. The date is the 21st to the 23rd July 2017. The hotel venue is the intercity hotel Hauptbahnhof in Berlin city centre near Tegel airport. For anyone interested, the best prices around £149 (€170) for the 2 nights for a room with a double bed or 2 twin beds. These are the non-refundable options. The free cancellation options add an extra £30 (€35). Flights should be in to Tegel airport to minimise the taxi costs to the hotel. Flights from the UK are around £140 (€165) at the minute from Heathrow. Flights from Newcastle are around £195 (€245). Flights from Stockholm are around €145 Flights from Oslo are around €160 Flights from Copenhagen are around €95 Flights from Rome are around €210 Flights from Bucharest are around €200 Flights from Paris are around €140 Flights from Dublin are around €210 Flights from Schippol are around €150 These are all flying into Tegel. If you fly to the other airport, it will likely be cheaper but the taxi fayre is going to be around €20 each way from the southern airport to the hotel, so weigh that in your decision of where you fly too.

BMurda Olive Sound like a good plan mate, we (me and my girl) are probably taking the train to the Hauptbahnhof just to get a trip out of it, and we ar probably gonna be in Berlin a few days extra, either befor or after XI fest, if it is before we decide, we can take care of greeting people in the airport at get caps/train tickets to them. But we haven't decided yet.. So I'll get back with some answers in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

But this works for me. I haven't decided on fly or drive yet, I might drop by my step sister on the way up and take the duckmobile. If I do, I will b eable to ferry up to two idiots plus JohnRambo to and/or from an airfield to the hotel and back. (I owe JR a ride after York. Everyone else is first come first serve and if you're over 6ft you're going to have a BAD fucking day sitting behind my tall ass). Are we opening this up to regulars who aren't members again this year, or are we strictly members-only this time around? I have a feeling some of the Battlefield regular Zonks might be inclined to show up for a few beers. dudebroman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
