@jorgegalindocruces
hey @rberenguel, the Meetup starts at 17:00 pretty much and is not very far away from the airport... so, if you can, you want!
:-)
Ruben Berenguel
@rberenguel
@jorgegalindocruces I know! And my hotel is just kind of round the corner, too, so everything is close but I just hope it runs until very late :D
Pablo
@pablogeek
Do you know if there is a good service of trains to go there from lisbon center? @jorgegalindocruces
Andrea Peruffo
@andreaTP

Pablo
@pablogeek
Thanks @andreaTP I'm staying in the center of lisbon because I've never been there!
Andrea Peruffo

hi @pablogeek. the best means of transportation in Lisbon is Metro.
you mean transportation to the meetup or to the conference?
Philippe Derome
@phderome
Btw, tramway is nice to look around but is too slow to travel some distance, so I agree with metro.
Pablo
@pablogeek
Both @jtjeferreira
I will stay in the center of lisbon and I would like to go to both things, conference and meetu
João Ferreira
@jtjeferreira
Metro is the best option. Conference is like 10 mins walking from "Oriente" metro station, meetup is like 15 mins from next metro station "Moscavide"
Pablo
@pablogeek
Thanks!!!

Guys, we are going to send a newsletter with all the information, but we just closed a partnership with Cabify Lisbon and we will have a discount code of 6€ in each first travel!
Although airlines regularly require id card to board, Schengen is id-less (I've flown from Switzerland to Spain without ever showing id or passport, once)
Pablo
@pablogeek
Does this mean we can flight as normal right? I hope we won't have any problem
Ruben Berenguel
@rberenguel
that's what my guess is... if not we have a problem :D
@jorgegalindocruces any pointers Jorge?
Pablo
@pablogeek
We dont have to worry about it. I was speaking with tap portugal by facebook. They said me this:
"Hello Pablo, This means that from the 10th of May up to the 14th of May the Schengen Agreement will be suspended and that only the documents required by the Portuguese authorities will be valid to enter the national territory, without any exception, and no alternative, invalid or expired documents will be accepted. Should your passport be valid you will be able to fly."
Ruben Berenguel
@rberenguel
So they basically added a phrase to their weirdly worded statement from the web :D ?
Pablo
@pablogeek
Yes basically that. 😂
João Ferreira
@jtjeferreira
Hi. You should check with your airlines, but I think Id card should be enough. Most likely you will face more control queues
Pablo
@pablogeek
Seems we are a bit fucked because the weather 😂
Ruben Berenguel
@rberenguel
Looks like it might be a bit sunnier Saturday morning, glad my flight is after lunch on Saturday
Jorge Galindo
@jorgegalindocruces
Thanks for ask @pablogeek, I am thinking to send a newsletter with information about that
The weather is better than expected. Lisbon weather is crazy, it's hot and rains sometimes
many cancelled flights. Hopefully my flight at 10AM is operational!
Ausmarton Fernandes
@ausmarton
Mine just landed in Lisbon, although until 15 minutes back it was supposed to be diverted to Faro.
Philippe Derome
@phderome
There are issues with the rain in OPorto!
Pepe García
@pepegar
Hey guys! Do you know if it's possible to park a car near the venue of the conference?
Ruben Berenguel
@rberenguel
About to board my plane, hope the meetup is long enough I catch something (1815 or 30 at the meetup place I reckon)! Are there any plans for lightnibg after or supper or something?
José Antonio Jiménez
@logistark
Our flight from Madrid seems is going to be delayed 2 hours.

@jorgegalindocruces Google maps puts Microsoft Portugal not on R. Sonakshi de Fogo but a bit further north near Jardim de Aqua close to Largo do's Arautos and Passeuo Ulisses. Which one is it?
