Hi guys, I am not on the official logistics team so I cannot tell you exactly where to go when you arrive. But I can give you a little bit of general gdansk travel information:
1) the venue is the Baltic Philharmonic, Polska Filharmonia Bałtycka im. Fryderyka Chopina . 2) the various hotels are scattered around the city (all within a fairly close radius to the venue however) 3) here's a map: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=pl&oe=UTF8&msa=0&msid=117126163892714460579.000466478a8b96d9f7d6d&ll=54.351854,18.659163&spn=0.024661,0.077248&z=14 which personally I would print out the central part of so as to have something to show a taxi driver. A taxi from the airport to this part of the city costs about 50pln. (15USD, 12 Euro). At night it will be more expensive: 65pln. There is a bus between the airport & the railway station (Gdansk Glowny), but that overshoots where you want to be in the old city ( http://www.polrail.com/sections/travel/railairlinks.html#Gdansk). The Gdansk airport is small! It is only a few gates. So you won't get hopelessly lost. Basically, you get off the plane, go through immigration (or not, you'll likely be coming on a transfer flight from another EU country), claim your luggage, walk out the door and there are the taxis. Then it's about 8km into central gdansk. -- Phoebe On Fri, Jul 2, 2010 at 4:34 AM, Morgan Chan <[email protected]> wrote: > Actually I will arrive Gdansk in 5 days later, but i still dunno where to > go when i arrived. > > On Fri, Jul 2, 2010 at 2:38 PM, Abbas Mahmoud <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> When we arrive in Gdansk, will there be an Wikimania 2010 official at the >> airport to guide us to the venue or will we have to find our way through by >> ourselves? >> >> Thanks >> AJ >> >> ------------------------------ >> Hotmail: Free, trusted and rich email service.
