The obvious answer is to pick a location that is equi-distant or
equally expensive for most people, and does not meet too often in
one contintent. There is such a place: Hawaii. It is fairly
mid-point between APAC and the Americas, and just slightly farther
from Europe (well, a lot farther if you can't fly direct, but
that's just due to airline routes, not
distance-between-two-points).
Furthermore, it's not in any continent, and thus equal for all in
that regard. And it's a great tourist destination, and has plenty
of meeting facilities, restaurants, Internet bandwidth, and no
trains. So this seems to address everyone's concerns.
Therefore, I propose we meet in Hawaii (and Kauai in particular) from now on.
Why Kauai? You list detailed reasons why Hawaii is logical and
solves for many of the problems, but you don't say why this island.
We can even rotate islands if people get bored.
Well, there are extensive conference facilities on Oahu, the Big
Island, Maui, and Kauai. I have no information as to if they would
work for a group of our size and with our need for breakout rooms.
