andybarton Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share #22 Posted October 28, 2022 I have our hotel before the flight from Gatwick and the apartment in the Old Town sorted too. Only 349 days to go 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigitalHeMan Posted November 8, 2022 Share #23 Posted November 8, 2022 Not the best connections from the Netherlands, unfortunately, but would like to be there. Will have to see if I can figure something out nearer the time. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanetomlane Posted November 8, 2022 Share #24 Posted November 8, 2022 Hate to say it but I'm looking at a package holiday, to include flight, hotel and breakfast. Haven't really gone into it but I know they exist, will start to look seriously next summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted November 8, 2022 Author Share #25 Posted November 8, 2022 We have friends going to the city in July next year and they are going on a Jet2 package including a 5 Star hotel, transfers from the airport and all that malarkey. Could be a good option. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 10/17/2022 at 11:05 AM, Sandokan said: Dubrovnik airport has a limited schedule of flights. To Switzerland it seems for only a few summer months. Split airport is better served. There are 3 options from Split to Dub. Ferry (leaves 0740 this year), Bus (very frequent and takes 4 hours costs about €14) or taxi (about €220-300). From Split airport to Bus station it seems taxi is the best way (€30) as i couldnt find a bus doing it. Is there one? Next time i will look into travel before voting 😅 Europcar offers car rental for 3 days for about €150 and paid car parking in Dub. Is about €27 per day but some hotels offer car parking. Closer to the time we can coordinate the journey and 1-2 people can join me in the car I'll be in Rome and happy to join. [Edit] Better off flying me thinks 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olaf_ZG Posted November 26, 2022 Share #35 Posted November 26, 2022 I most probably would come, but can’t promise, as the week before I will be in Venice for a workshop. That said, being a non-local local, I would love to help you organizing. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share #36 Posted November 26, 2022 Thanks Olaf. I hope you can make it as it would be great to meet you. Any help that you can offer with venues, etc, would be most welcome. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help that you can offer with venues, etc, would be most welcome. My workshop is with Peter Turner and I dont want to miss that. However, as I work in wholesale focused on HoReCa, and we have a store in DU, support with venues is not a problem. IF I come, I would drive from Zagreb (6 hours) but can’t promise my attendance and therefore can’t promise any favors regarding transport. AND, as a local, a round of wine is on me (BUT to be clear, this aint going to be a tradition… or maybe it should…) Edited November 26, 2022 by Olaf_ZG 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share #38 Posted November 26, 2022 Don’t worry about transport. ”Local” knowledge and especially language is really helpful when finding cafes and restaurants etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
