In fact, everyone should proceed with making their flight reservations as soon as possible. I've already confirmed my booking and the price was very cheap (almost the same price as if I wanted to fly somewhere in the US). Getting cheap flights ensures that more budget may be proportioned for the Summit itself (which is a good thing).
Thanks!
Tim

My flights are done too. As some may have seen on the mailing list, Sunday flights to my area (DFW) were problematic-- anyone else run into that? Who else from the US/Canada are leaving on the 12th due to flight issues?

I am leaving on Sunday 6pm - so I may miss the very tail end of the Sunday sessions. I think there were only two direct flights to Toronto that day - I'm on the last one. But, it was more convenient for me since I can spend the last day of the long weekend with my family.

I'm having serious issues getting my flights booked. They want to put me on a 14-hour marathon, because the direct flight is too expensive. When they sent me their price for two direct flights (4000 euros!?!) I checked the KLM website and got a price of less than 1000 euros. Negotiations are ongoing. I may have to book this myself and get reimbursed

Things are complicated by the fact that my day is their night. So I get their e-mails at 3 in the morning my time, and they get my responses at 8pm their time... Frustrating...

Patience and persistence, I'm sure you're going to work it out, just keep cool.
Yes, they do have interesting suggestions occasionally (I'm currently on a ~7 hour proposal, which is quite a result for a less than a 1000 mile distance, a result of me not wanting to leave at 11AM on Sunday and them not budging to put me on a Monday morning flight
Yes, I know, there are probably nomads in the African desert with better connectivity than mine ).
