Small, yet significant update:
Milepoint have generously offered to sponsor a dinner for us Friday night - thanks Randy and Tommy.

Unfortunately planning for after the summer seems to indicate I may have to be in MNL during the DO, will remove myself if this becomes a certainty.

As luck would have it, I'm scheduled to be in Stockholm on October 7! Hope to be able to join you there!

What flights are we looking at booking from OSL/ARN/HEL....?

Sorry for the late reply. The plan is updated to include the flights we are looking at.

There is a new thread where information will be posted. This thread will only be updated with major news. Please follow the event here: http://milepoint.com/forums/threads/the-inaugural-annual-nordic-meetup-7-9oct2011.15123/

I've updated the agenda with hotel information for Stockholm as Malu have arranged the following for us:

Scandic have kindly agree to host us for an event from 17.30 to 18.30 at their brand new flagship hotel "Grand Central" just across the Central station. The hotel opens on 01OCT. Scandic is preparing a special VIP-package for us at Grand Central. Scandic is proposing a short program 17.30-18.30 on the Friday, where the the manager on duty will greet us in the lobby and then show some of the rooms and the conference floor. The restaurant- and bar-manager will talk about their new food-concept and offer some complimentary appetizers and sparkling wine. After that, we can walk or take a taxi to Grill where we are supposed to be @19.00.
There will also be a live band playing in the "Acoustic Bar" in the hotel, so we are welcome back after the dinner, for yet another complimentary drink!

We will also be sleeping at the same Scandic at a rate of 1050 SEK incl. breakfast. Booking code will follow soon (max number of bookings is 40). Scandic will give EB points or points to their own program, whichever you prefer.

Thanks for the update. Randy and I will move to the Scandic!

Check the meetup hotel in Stockholm - reservations are now open!

Everyone planning to attend, please register at https://web.questback.com/scandinaviumairlinessystems/07oct/ as soon as possible. This is SAS's own registration for the event at ARN.
Milepoints own registration will soon be open.

Expect more updates soon.

Do we need a password to register?

Yes, it is a320neo

Also read in the other thread that there are only 30 spots (incl attendees from other forums), and EB status counts = no attending for me.

What is this? The very first time I ever hear about milepoint.com is through the thread in FT. I´d love to join, but obviously there are no more seats left.

Judging from your nickname it sounds like you are from HEL - we have room for the event in HEL if you're interested.

I´ll join the event in HEL then.

Great, you are most welcome. Keep yourself updated in this thread about where to meet etc. later.

Will come for the dinner, and if possible also join the SAS-event at ARN due to my position in the cue.
Still checking for 08th in HEL with my family.
ARN-HEL is the special MP-rate, right? Hotel proposal already out by now?

Im looking forward to meet most of you for the first time
