The Inaugural Annual Nordic Meetup 7-9OCT2011

Checked bag as a milepointer? The first round on you

Yes I figured that would be a problem Bigger bag in the cabin it is then, and a round of drinks obviously

Yay, my optiontown upgrade for the party-flight KF430 has just been confirmed - so i'll be in the front cabin as well

Sneaky bastard!

Yes - There is only two kinds of luggage - Carry on or lost

/HerrO

By the way - only exception to this is when you go to US for mega shopping once or twice a year. Then it is OK on the way home to check in a bag

A question about meet up location on Friday: For those of us, bet there is a few, who don't come into T5 on the morning of the 7th and can't meet up airside, where is the scheduled landside meet up spot?

Noticed that Starbucks is mentioned (airside location in T5), but where does the rest of us meet up, who come in on a domestic connection, or from the general Stockholm area?

Sorry, it wasn't planned that way If i'd knew in advance how good the KF offer for us would really be, i hadn't booked an cheapo eco-tix that early

KF427 Helsinki (HEL)
Sun, Oct 9 17:30 Stockholm (ARN)
17:30 Blue1 Premium - Congrats!
Upgraded to Blue1 Premium

Awesome! My cheapo return ticket - HEL-OSL was upgraded with Optiontown!

Looks like we still can continue the party in the lounge though! I'm on the 17:05 flight to Oslo.

Dammit, I've forgotten that I actually have to get back from HEL! I my mind the party would just stay in HEL forever..
Let's hope I can find something cheaper than the 3400,- ticket available right now!

Just got the same email, but just for the HEL-OSL flight

All blue1 awards were half off on point breaks when booked in September. Instead of paying that amount of money, I´d use points or check Norwegian.

Access to lounge without *G.......? It doesen't say so on their homepage - you need to be on EU flights.No access for domestic or intra-scandinavian flights....

Damn, that really sucks. If you can't find anything cheaper; airbaltic have C class tickets for 300€ or so.

Talking of forgetting, i just realized i haven't booked the party flight for myself

So, I've found an attractive fare via London - which seems in line with the theme this weekend. The trip is HEL-LHR and LGW-BGO with 3:45 connection. Anyone tried a transfer between Heathrow and Gatwick before?

The bus service states between 60 and 120 mins for transfer, which would leave me minimum 1:45 for immigration, waiting, and checkin. Any thoughts?

Yeah, totally logical M25 shouldn't be very bad on a sunday, so my guess is the time will be closer to one hour then two. And with only cabin luggage you should be fine.

Or 2200 NOK via Oslo with Norwegian........Late arrival though...

I paid SEK1045 for ARN-HEL-OSL on AY.

Lucky me that I can take 25 EUR ship back to Tallinn. However I plan to do it already Saturday evening. How long will last the KF event, from 12h to ?

I don't really have a confirmed schedule yet, but i would expect 15-16-ish

You get access with Blue1 premium! If theres any problem, I'd be more than happy to guest you in!
