The closest airport to the Conference is Barcelona (BCN), but some cheap flights can be bought to Girona airport (GRO), a city about one hour and a quarter away by bus. Keep in mind when you calculate the price of your trip that the bus adds 14€ one way and 25€ round trip.
Remember that since the end of August and beginning of September is typically when most people's holidays end, the 1st and 2nd weekend of September will be a very busy one. Therefore, we recommend that you book your trip as soon as possible to avoid expensive flights.
Couch surfing
We will try to find a couch surfing host for all pirates that ask for it. However, since we can not guarantee a couch/bed for everyone, we recommend that you register as soon as possible to make sure we can find you one.
Free accommodation is guaranteed and will be available for all pirates that bring their own sleeping bag and mat and don't mind sleeping on the floor. Please let us know during registration so we can arrange it.
