I am trying to ping people via DMs and I’ve posted it once on DC, but it would be good to get more people to do that a well.
Maybe @Clarke or @Koffer or @Churizo could make an Announcements post for this as well? (I can make one myself too if I am allowed? I do have access to post there)
Also, a few people have said that they are flexible for the date, so I would like to try to lock something in by end of Feb latest for planning to start for everyone.
(For example, @Koffer)
I don’t know when I can go, probably any time, but Im not ticking all the boxes.
Any date except 8,9,10
Would be best on weekends
So far august is still empty in my calendar
Hiya peeps!
Seems like 12th of August to 18th of August is the timeslot that works for the most, so we should probably lock this in.
I imagine 17th to 18th would be the most popular time here, as on the weekend people in the nearby countries can come over quite easily.
How long would people who’d be flying in want to stay for? I am happy to hang around for the whole week myself, and this would allow us to visit more places.
I’ve found a pretty decent AirBnb in the centre of Tallinn for somewhat cheap for what we get!
12th-18th is the most popular window. Are you coming?
Some are planning to come for the whole week, so if the weekend might not work for you, it might still work out, so don’t let that be a reason not to join 
Not available 15 to 18. If it was the previous weekend it could be ok.
Sorry peeps don’t think I can make it, can’t make plans for the moment as I got other things on hold. Don’t consider me in the date selection, I’ll find a place and join if I get some time off from work
I can’t confirm my availability yet.
It depends on how work turns out over the next couple of months. The thing is that for me none of the dates mattered, because I didn’t know for any of them if work would allow so far in advance. I’ll definitely keep you posted closer to the date if I can make it though.
Hopefully this will be enough for people to start planning their travels and time.
I have just in case taken this week off from work, but I can always move it around/take more time off if someone wants to visit at another time themselves or if we have to move anything around.
Let me know if you have any questions. The airport you should be looking for is Tallinn Lennart Meri Airport or just Tallinn Airport (Code: EETN, TLL). You could also look into Riga Airport (Code: RIX) or Helsinki Airport (Code: HEL) and take a different transport from there.
Riga and Tallinn have lots of planes going between them, so if you cannot get a direct flight it will most likely pass through there, other options could be Helsinki, Copenhagen and some German Airports. However, you can also take a bus (LUX Express for example) between Riga and Tallinn, and you might also be able to take a Train to Tallinn from the border city of Valga/Valka.
If your cheapest/best flight is to Helsinki airport, then you can take a ferry across the water, if it’s cheaper than the flight.
Stockholm and Tallinn also have a cruise ship connection, but I imagine the flights would be cheaper.
Tallinn itself is quite walkable and has decent public transport available, especially for the most popular areas. When here, I would recommend looking into getting a Tallinn Card from a tourism information centre, or a Green Card from a kiosk/store. These allow you to use the public transit without having to use your credit/debit card each time, and the Tallinn Card also comes with lots of discounts for museums and such.
Food wise, we have a strong restaurant scene and two main delivery apps as well, plus some smaller ones for either specific regions or specific restaurants.
For Taxies, we also usually use one main app, but if you want to be thrifty, I’d recommend getting two or even there and then you can compare prices, sometimes during peak hours, some apps raise their prices at different times, which can allow you to save some money. The main app is Bolt (for taxis, scooters and food), Wolt is a good alternative for food, Tuul is a good scooter only alternative and Uber/Forus are good taxi alternatives. We also have Starship which allows you to get an autonomous robot to deliver your food, which is cool I guess.
Let me know here or DM me anywhere if you have any questions or if you need help with anything.
Counting in the “maybes” who have not yet voted here, we are close to 10 people already! Very exciting!
Heya!
I just wanted to check if anyone is already looking into transport to here and would want help or already knows when they would be arriving here?
Once we get more info on when who will be arriving (for which we have still plenty of time ) we can start working on accommodation too. If anyone is working on a tighter budget as well, feel free to let me know and ask for tips/help.
I am happy to put as much work into this as needed to make it work 
Cheers!
Heyo, turns out I have a bunch more PTO than I thought. I’m thinking of joining from the Wednesday to the Sunday, unsure if those dates are final yet but in general I’m aiming at 5 days
Thats awesome to hear!
I’m curious how early do people want to start looking for flights/hotels. Its cheaper to get stuff early but then you have to lock plans in too 
That’s why I haven’t booked yet
I’m booking now, but I can’t do the entire week. When are most people gonna be there, start or end of the week?
I also wanted to raise this question.
As we are getting closer to the date, I imagine some may want to start booking. It would be good to confirm who are coming for the whole week and who are just planning to come for a few days. This way we can confirm who are coming for just a few days and make sure we get to see each other in person at the same time.
