How much booze you can pack depends entirely on whether the two lonely gentlemen just chilling out that you walk past once you get your baggage we call "customs" decide they care. I've seen one dude fined for one bottle over the limit and watched people roll out cases of beer and liquor. There is no line from a line perspective.
First fanfest I had a backpack full of heavy Belgian beer (6-9 large 750 ml bottles). I chose a a hippy in sandals with dreads and a bigger backpack to walk behind. While I clincked and chinged my way through customs, they made the hippy come to them and I walked on trough....

When you arrive in KEF, there is a Duty Free shop on arrival, there you have poster telling you what are the alcohol limit you can bring into Iceland. And it's somethin like: 6L of beer+1strong alcohol bottle or 3L of wine or 1.5 L of strong alcohol but my memory can be wrong...
Can't wait to be there !!!! |

Well ok, but they are not promoting at all the fact you can bring 12 L of beer and hopefully, nobody told us about that last year  |

12 litres of beer sounds heavy to carry, and who the hell buys wine in a litre? Wine bottles are 750ml.
I wonder if 4 bottles of wine and a litre bottle of spirits would work?

Well may be, but when you stay 1 week in an appartement in Iceland, beleive me you don't spend your whole night&day in bars/pubs/whatever, especially when you have a pool/jacuzzi @home, and opening hour on week day, well you know... closing early blablabla

I'm told these crazy houses also charge crazy prices.
Plus what if the hotel is unsympathetic to my breakfast claret requirements?

Hope to make it again this year if funds allow.
Protip-> avoid hotel cabin like it got herpes, unless your a midget and have no problems with small rooms.
Book all the tours, and bring cold weather hiking gear ( good shoe's at least )
Polar beer = best beer :)
But roaming city for finding a better one is recommend.
Oh, and dont trow sigarets on the street,that really ticks off the locals. |

A better protip is that now the venue has moved, Hotel Cabin is like 40 minutes walk from the harbour/city centre area where Fanfest will be and where all the other Eve players will be staying. |

What are you talking about? CCP has a table for FW last year, they made sure everyone working on FW attended!
You can't fault CCP for actually making sure 100% of FW workers showed up to the FW table!
Repair Drones should be able to repair anyone ... really, they should. -áThink of them as the first targetable subsystem if you're worried about PvP and for missions if someone wants Rep drones over a flight of Hobs, who cares. -áThere is no reasonable objection here other than it's always been that way (so was RR until recently). |

Last year ticket prices were ~$100AUD, not that big an expenditure.
I simply want concrete confirmation of the dates. I can't risk spending the money only to have the dates change. |

Badly worded on my behalf, I'm actually after the package deals which varied vastly in price last year with location and the hotel chosen |

Hi CCP, its me again.
Here to remind you that as time ticks implacably by, we find ourselves 25% of the way through December, with only a week to go before the promised deadline of half way through December is reached, and not much longer then that before my travel agent goes on Christmas break.
Carry on, stalwart men and women of noble toil, carry on! |

I stayed there last year, while the rooms are pretty small, the beds were fine, it was cheap, staff were helpful and the place was packed with EvE players and I had a great time.
TEAM HOTEL CABIN FTW
In fairness if you're complaining about your hotel room being too small you're just spending far too much time in there. sleep, shower, leave |
