Hello,
Any1 from India attending DebConf15?
I am strongly planning to attend DebConf15 despite the fact my travel
grant request is refused. ^_^
Would that be your first time at a Debconf?
Just waiting for air fare to go down. If at all it goes down, will be
heading to Heidelberg for DebConf15 in August.
Isn't it usually cheaper to buy an air ticket ahead of time?
That sounds like it would be quite expensive. Can you tell us how much
(approxumately) the costs are?
i)As of now air fare is high i.e. 42~44k rupees for round trip. :-/
Main concern. :-(
ii) Accommodation is available at reasonable cost at the venue as per
the conference page which looks fine. 15~20 Euro per night x 7 days.
iii) Travel cost from Frankfurt to Heidelberg and back by train as of
now is 40 Euro as per the update from Martin.
I assume, rough cost with this budget would be 60,000~65,000 rupees. :-/
I see. That is quite expensive, but less than I expected. Does that 15-20
Euro include both accomodation as well as food? If so, it seems cheap.
I got conference invitation letter [for visa purpose] from Rene some
time back.
I see. I suppose that is required for entry into Germany. You didn't
mention the cost of a German visa. How much is that?
And where are you located?
Pune city :-)
Ok. Thanks for the information.
