Hello Pheobe, and thank you for all the information. Just one question; is
there a cheaper way than a taxi to get to where the check in will be taking
place? you mention that the bus overshoots our destination, but is the
railway station too far/close from that destination, is it doable by walk?
Thank you very much, and see you soon :)

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&…
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.

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
