Hey Sebastian and Samir,

Sorry I didn't reply sooner.

I'm about to book the following flights:

Bristol (BRS)
Thu 2 February, 2017, 06:05
Brussels (BRU)
Thu 2 February, 2017, 08:20
Brussels Airlines
SN2060

Brussels (BRU)
Mon 6 February, 2017, 09:50
Bristol (BRS)
Mon 6 February, 2017, 10:05
Brussels Airlines
SN2055

Just wanted to check whether you two are still going on Thursday and
returning on Monday.

Happy to share a hotel room if that suits either of you otherwise I'll
book something separately.

Just out of interest...

Did you look at going on Eurostar? I often find it's significantly cheaper than flying. I used to go out to Grenoble by train and there wasn't a huge difference in journey time (once you consider getting to/from the airport at both ends and the waiting time in the airports). You can buy a through-ticket from any UK station nowadays.

Huh, I hadn't considered it but you're right it's about £30 cheaper
once you factor in the Bristol airport bus.
But it also takes 5+h vs ~2h by bus+plane.
And the flight is direct, so no risk of missed connections etc.

I'll think about it.

Hi

Just seen this, and not sure who you are. If your the guy who came to the
event in October and the LUG in November, ok I got an idea. If someone else
I am not sure.

Hopefully you haven't booked anything yet, Samir and me are flying out on
the Thursday on the 17:30pm 5:30pm flight. He will be staying on the
continent for longer, to visit family etc, but I am going back on the 21:20
9:20pm (or about), flight on the Monday., the last flight back of the day
As for hotel, I'll probably stay where I have stayed the last five years,
plus they do a paid extra for air port transfer, where they wait at the
air port, and take back as well. Want to join me in the same hotel?
However with own rooms. Samir will be staying somewere else.

Thought there may have been a flight times issue a bit possibly, with three
there and back on those days.

Regards

Sebastian

Yep, that's me :-)

Ok. I don't think there are any remaining cheap seats at that time so
I'll have to meet up with you there.

Looking forward to it though!

HI

The Eurostar is cheaper, and not the first time people have been like, from
the UK, your going to Brussels why not on the Eurostar. However here's how
I see it, we are down here in this area, so to go by Eurostar first you
got to get to London, well actually past London, Dover? That's over two
hours travelling already! With a plane can leave at a nicer time for a
later flight, and waiting around a bit in less busy airports such as
Bristol, doesn't bother me at all, usually better not on own though.
Flying from Brussels from down here only takes about an hour and ten
minutes, only about 45 minutes from Heathrow as well (done that before as
well), way quicker to fly. With a train may have to wait around in train
stations as well, or for trains that are delayed, etc. Plus it's eaiser
to travel with an extra bag via planes, since that's one of the first
things that is done, getting rid of that extra bag :).

Regards

Sebastian

Yes planes aren't that cheap now and I didn't book early enough as well, a
return will be like 268 pounds now. Can still stay in the same hotel if
you want though? Also you going to stay tilll Monday evening? You could
meet us there on Thursday evening if going a bit earlier I expect. It's
good being there early about 5 6pm on the Friday if going for the beer
event as well, since it gets majorly packed inside and outside up to the
road.
