[maemo-community] Maemo Summit 2009: US return flights for sponsored attendees

[From: Randall Arnold]

I have already begun the process of arranging my travel, from DFW to AMS
and back.  Departure is not a problem (I am hoping to attend the earlier
Co-create sessions and there are plenty of flights for October 7 or
October 8 for that matter).

However, return flights either leave before the Summit has concluded or
are so late that I would have to stay in New York one night in order to
catch a connecting flight back home the next day.

I actually would not mind staying in New York one night but I should
really go straight home.  Also, the flights available are $400 USD more
than if I stayed through the 12th and left that morning.  Surely the
additional hotel cost for one more night does not come to that.

Anyway, just wanted to put that out there because I know there are other
US travelers who may run into the same thing.  I believe Quim said
exceptions might be made for long distance attendees in cases like this,
but there is nothing official on the wiki page yet (http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_Summit_2009/Sponsored_travel).

Has anyone else encountered and resolved this?

Randy
