ApacheCon 2005
So I just booked the most bizarre flight in my life yet. I’ll be going to San Diego BTW to speak and listen at ApacheCon 2005 US.
However, I will be going NUE - MUC - FRA- SFO - SAN on the outbound and SAN - SFO - LHR - MUC - NUE on the inbound leg. (NUE = Nuremberg airport which is ~ 10 minutes drive from my home. MUC is Munich, FRA is Frankfurt.)
All because the conference is quite close to the christmas holidays this year and getting a direct flight from NUE would have been more than twice as expensive as going from MUC. And a flight from NUE to MUC (which is ~ 80 miles and less than 20 minutes flight time) is cheaper and faster (!) than going by train… And no, this is not “with different air lines” Everything is Lufthansa or Lufthansa, operated by United.
