Location suggestion for international AirlineSim meet-up 2015

London!? I know some great plane spotting areas around LHR and LCY. Also happy to drive people around :) 

This years international meet-up is cancled due to the low feedback - also within the team. To avoid one of the causing reasons for this, we want to bring this to life a bit earlier. So we kindly ask you to send us your suggestions on where the next international meet-up shall take place. Feel free to post your suggestion and maybe a short reason why it should be there. ;)

What about Berlin (not because I live there, but srsly  :D ) ? It has a wide range of modern, affordable hotels and can be reached by almost anywhere in europe by low cost carrier, bus or train. Cities in western europe like AMS,CDG,LHR,BCN might have more to offer, but are oftentimes more expensive while eastern places like WAW,BUD,PRG are more difficult to reach.

"International" from our perspective means "not in Germany" ;)

Btw...we've been to Berlin last December already.

Hey, come to Croatia

If you come April-May or October-November its relative cheep :)

Adriatic coast is nice in spring :)

Maybe we should add the information too, that the airport should be reachable from many countries (but especially germany/austria) ...

Why not Bucharest? We have pretty good connections with all Europe (also low-cost) and OTP have growing traffic. And Bucharest is really a nice city, even if it can be a little bit noisy and crowded.

You are from Bucharest?

Yes. And, of course, if Bucharest is the choice I can help with the arrangements.

And at last Dubrovnik old city

but IMHO its to expensive

I would suggest Punta Cana Dominican Republic :)

During shoulder season at the end of May/beginning of June, flights and room can be had for cheap.

Direct flights form Germany, Austria, as well as all major European Capitals, and USA/Canada/South America gateways.

Just imagine yourself sipping Piña Colada or Mai Tai in a gorgeous pool while discussing AS strategies :)

oh yeah ... but that's quite a bit expensive ... we have the mediterranean a bit closer to have this ;)

Hey why not New York City. Something for us US players.

Hey why not New York City. Something for us US players.

Well... had you suggested Orlando, Miami, or Las Vegas I could understand ... but NYC?

Cause NYC would be easier to get to for the European players. A large number of airlines fly into the big 3 airports.

Yeah but also NYC is pretty expensive ... much more than any destination suggested.

Overall budget-wise ... while flights to NYCmight be more economical than to other places, hotels more than "compensate" for such price advantage.

Also, there are many players form countries that would need visa ... and I guess not many players are keen on spending common 120-minute wait time to clear immigration in the middle-ages JFK terminal. Now, this is AIRPORT

Maybe Newark is more suitable instead of NYC.  :D

I would like to have a Meeting @ Istanbul, its easy to reach, TK connects every village to IST/SAW city is nice and its not that expensive.

We should consider ZRH then.
