Is anyone still goin to Vegas?

chrisbuttenham March 5, 2020

Hey there! Curious what the appetite is for folks who can't get their flights refunded to still head to Vegas; vendors, partners, customers, Atlassian's—is anyone still heading to Sin City at the end of March?

 

I'm thinking of going, as I can't get refunded for my accommodations anyways. I'm thinking about setting up a low-key meet-up to commiserate on the lack of Summit this year.

 

Thoughts?

@chrisbuttenham  Sad, but i suppose  not so many will be interested for a trip. Safety first.

Thanks to POTUS, I'm not allowed to enter the US for the next 30 days. Now I got my flight cancelled...

I am already on my way. Paid hotel and flights from my own pocket, will not receive any money back, everything prepaid. So I will finish my trip and stay in Vegas for those 5 days ..

Hi All,

From Perth, Australia and we've booked our flights and hotels which have all been pre-paid. I'm really keen on meeting up too so definitely interested in any meet ups. 

Thanks

Will

Like others - I'm still travelling, and keen to meet up with others. Also from Australia, so keen to learn more from others.

I was able to cancel all my stuff. So I won't be there, but considering how many people are going, I hope that you all do meet and I hope there are pictures!

Looks like there are quite a few folks interested in syncing up so we've put together an unofficial Meetup group you can join here: 

https://www.meetup.com/Atlassian-Summit-Meetup/

We'll be able to get an idea of headcount and then organize an appropriate venue/time to meet :)

Ok, might be an important information for some travelers:

Lufthansa Group Airlines (Lufthansa, Swiss, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, Air Dolomiti) allow a variable rescheduling of booked flights until 31st December 2020 w/o costs.

This doesn't really help, as I can't reschedule for next Summit, but maybe some of you can decide to go later this year.

So it looks like we're still a decent amount of people. Should we try to book some sort of meeting room or bar? What does your schedule look like right now?

kriisten March 11, 2020

Hey David–we're on it!

Currently in the process of sourcing a venue, thinking a cocktail bar on Tuesday evening would be best so everyone can be free for virtual Summit Wednesday/Thursday but open to suggestions, of course :)

Feel free to join the meetup group here: https://www.meetup.com/Atlassian-Summit-Meetup/

We'll be posting more details as things progress.

All travels from continental Europe to the US is suspended for 30 days starting Friday, March 13th 2020. We can all concentrate on virtual / remote Atlassian Summit 2020.
