Hi people
here is Régis from Belo Horizonte BID. I'm sorry because I coudn't stay online during the first meeting.
I've checked prices for all the following cities and I'm sure that everyone will be convinced that Brazil is the best place to host DC12. Brazil and specially Belo Horizonte (or just BH) also have very nice landscapes and a lot of interesting places to visit. ;)
Well, let's check the informations about the flights that I've got.
Best regards
Régis Fernandes Gontijo
