I will be in London the week before the meet, and am flying from London over to Amsterdam on the Wednesday immediately before the meet weekend. Leaving for home on the Tuesday (I think).

Airfare from YOW (Ottawa, Ontario Canada) was good -- about CAD$600 return to LHR (London Heath Row), and another CAD$220 for the flights between LHR and AMS (Amsterdam).

Hotel at Trafalger Square in London is something like UK82/night for us.

Cheers
