Dear all,

Below, I am re-sending some additional information to help you with
travel arrangements:
Timing:
The meeting will run from Wed. 14:00 until Fri 12:00, i.e. 2 full days
spread over three. (Which shouldn’t keep you from arriving a day early
to settle in and enjoy Vienna – I am sure we can fill any free time you
might have somehow, be it with meetings or otherwise 🙂
– Agenda:
Will follow soon…
– Venue:
The meeting will be held in the the main building of the Technical
University of Vienna, at Karlsplatz 13

Right at the metro station Karlsplatz, connected to metro lines
U1, U2, U4, so easily reachable from virtually all directions.
The meeting will take place in the “Festsaal”, detailed location info is
available in the attached PDF document. This is right in the city
center, about 10mins walk to the Opera, Musikverein, Konzerthaus,
Theater an der Wien, etc.
– Hotels:
There are a number of hotels in the vicinity where TU Wien has
negotiated preferential rates for events at TU Wien, see the atached
list. But basically any hotel that’s near to a metro station (or
anywhere surrounding the Karlsplatz area, Vienna is a pretty small,
walkable city) is fine.
– Arrival:
Vienna International Airport is approx. 20 minutes to the east of the
city. Getting downtown is usually pretty straightforward, either via the
Airport Express Train (CAT, 16 mins), the slightly slower but cheaper
regular train S7 (20 mins), both of which will take you to the metro
stop in Landstraße-Wien Mitte (U3, U4), or by an express train to the
cenral railway station Hauptbahnhof (17mins, U1), as well a several bus
lines. There are also several pre-booked taxi services, the biggest
company at the airport is Airportdriver https://www.airportdriver.at/en
fixed price of 33EUR to any place within Vienna, pre-book at least
24hours before arrival.
More detailed arrival info and links are avilable at the TU Wien
homepage at

If there is any additional information that you need, please let
me know!
Looking forward to welcoming you in Vienna!
