How to join

• Subscribe to this note's notifications to get updates (in the sidebar on the right)
• Optionally, you can introduce yourself here :-)
• Buy the ticket at https://www.europeansleeper.eu/referral?referralCode=TRAIN2FOSDEM2026 (15% discount and we should be placed to neighbouring compartments) (Looks like @LEdoian made the arrangement with European Sleeper also for this journey but me and Cristian book the tickets beforehand so we need to ask to be defragmented as well..;) Please, let us know if you want to join us so we know if we should ask for the defragmenation...)
• Join the chat
• When the train goes, find us (TODO: how) (and look here about which coach it is to ease the search :-) )

(TODO: I am yet to find an animal I have as a plush toy AND is available as emoji... The closest is the Sea Lion and 🦭)

May I interest you in an evening full of pinball and arcade games on the day you arrive? ;)

@lachmanfrantisek, I added you to the team and assigned this ticket to you, so you can better move it around. Feel free to correct anything.

It is great to see the OG β route line (as well as the OG β group) 😸

So, two messages from ES:

• There have been some technical difficulty with the booking link, but it should work now.
• Given the issue above, the "hacker defragmentation" (re-seating, so that hackers end up together/close) needs manual fixup – please send me your booking codes if you want to partake in the defragmentation (either DM @ledoian@dolujeme.eu on Matrix or send an email to fosdemtrain@pokemon.ledoian.cz, and also add the date of the trip to distinguish between the ES trains). European Sleeper promised to do their best, but no hard promises due to a lot of bookings.

Closing, as the 🦭 route safely arrived yesterday.
