Hi all,
RyanAir flies twice per day from Porto for 1/5th-1/10th of the price, which is a huge
factor. The 1st flight on the morning is to the main airport, the 2nd in the afternoon is
to the low-cost airport. Flights from Santiago are only mondays and fridays to the low
cost airport. I will take the flight back to Santiago via Ryan Air bc I have to be here on
friday.
Perhaps we can arrange a shuttle from santiago to Porto if we all go with the same travel
agency (?). I can ask. Another option is share car(s) and leave hen in the airport
parking. (This is reimbursed of course).
Cheers!
L.

Ah okay. That works as well. Since you said you were going to book yourself, I assumed
we'd book ourselves or through a travel agency according to personal preference. As
such, I have already sent an email to the travel agency for myself. It's fine. I can
share the prices proposed by BivesTour tomorrow along with flight options, if I have them
by then.
Cheers and until tomorrow,
Miguel

So I just talked to Lorenzo and came to the conclusion to talk about the trip to Brussels
tomorrow in the meeting, decide there on a hotel + flights, and book via a travel agency.

Hi Marvin,
Indeed option 1 looks best. I'll go for that as well. Thank you for spending time on
this!

okay, I had a look again and now found 4 options. I would probably just book one like
today in the evening, it is not getting better and it feels like I am investing too much
time on this already. I post all 4, feel free to comment on your preferences. My
preference is a bit on 1. just because it is very central, but I guess they are all more
or less same, none of them should be bad. All prices are for Sunday to Friday.
1. easyHotel Brussels City
Centre<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.booking.com/hotel/be/ea...
very central in the city, ~30 min to uni with one bus, 680 €
2. Le Berger
Hotel<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.booking.com/hotel/be/le-...;,
out of the ring to the south, closer to uni, like 20 min with one bus, 644 € (only few
rooms left)
3. B&B HOTEL Brussels Centre Gare du
Midi<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.booking.com/hotel/be/b-am...
and 4. Appart'City Confort Bruxelles Centre Gare du
Midi<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.booking.com/hotel/be/appa...;,
close to the train station, out if the ring to the west, more like 40 min with public
transportation and have to changes bus/metro/tram (no idea), 634 € and 675 € resp.

No, I did want to do some physics today (weird, I know) but I will have a look again
tommorow.
Regarding flights, I checked with Juan that there are direct flights with Ryanair from SCQ
to Brüssel (CRL) (the shitty airport somewhat close to brussels) on the Friday and going
back Friday after the meeting. That could be an option in case one wants to come early.
But getting from CRL to the city is a bit annoying, buses go for 17€ taking approx 1h.

yes, it makes sense, and provided that there's budget for all of us to stay that extra
night, I'm fine with it. We should also book the flights soon. Should we book through
a travel agency?
Regarding the hotel, have you found anything else after Ioana's email?
Cheers,
Miguel

one more thing: I was so far always looking for hotels from Sunday to Friday. But the
meeting ends Friday at 16:00, so it might be reasonable to go back on Saturday.

I wonder what Ioana understands as good connections. Approx 40 minutes one way from the
center feels like quite a lot to me right now. There are closer options like ibis Brussels
Centre Chatelain (1) or B&B HOTEL Brussels Centre Louise (2) for ~700€ with like 15
minutes commute. But then we are also further away from city center and dinner places I
guess. Not sure whats the better option.

Hi Marvin, hi all
There is (or used to be) a webpage with a table displaying how much money the university
covers for housing and meals, per day, and according to the country. For some reason I
cannot find this table anywhere, so if someone has it or can find it, I'd much
appreciate it. In my mind the price per night should be around ~150 euros. With this in
mind I found this alternative hotel: Appart'City Confort Bruxelles Centre Gare du
Mindi<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.booking.com/hotel/be/app...;,
which amounts to 658 euros (without breakfast, which is 12.90 a day). Access to the Uni is
a bit worse, but still okay, and fairly close to city center. Reviews similar to the ones
for the hotels on indico.
I usually let the travel agency book the hotel so that the university pays directly, and I
don't have to wait for the reimbursement. Are you thinking of doing this or booking
directly?
Cheers,
Miguel

Hola,
brussels meeting is coming closer and closer and we should look for hotels. In slack Ioana
said to look for hotels in the center as there is a good connection to the conference
place. Some suggestions are on the indico,

right now I only checked Ibis Brussels City
Centre<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.booking.com/Share-N886d...
which would cost 911 € for one person and 5 nights and NH Brussels Grand Place
Arenberg<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.booking.com/Share-E54...
for only 1.179€. Not sure if this is inside our budget, but this seems to be the general
scale on
