Yeah, we can get the 9 person van, according to Caratio, so we will add you to the list.

Anyone else? We can rent two vehicles, if needed.

As I understand we depart as soon as possible early Wednesday morning

You have to wait for me, 'cause I can't be in Copenhagen(central station(train)) before 0645 appr.

I also vote for the ferry-rute

As long as you can be there by 0730. We will assemble at 0700, leave at 0730. Caratio will tell us where to meet to pick up the car.

This is my proposal, and I sincerely believe this is what we should stick to.
All necessary images are posted below.

We will meet in Copenhagen between 7.30 and 8.30.
During that time, we'll go to the Hertz office and pick up the van.
I propose that I'll pay by my local credit card, and you give me some cash, if we need to pay in advance.

Schedule
7.30 Meet at the hotel
7.45 We walk along the lakes to Hertz at Ved Vesterport (see map)
8.00 We get the van(s)
8.30 We leave Cph - the drive to Rødby is set to last 1h45, so we can make a stop on the road there, but no more than 0h45 in total.
11.00 We have to be at Rødby harbour
11.15 The ferry leaves Rødby - I suggest we eat some lunch at the ferry.
11.45 Arrival in Puttgarten
13.00 Arrival in Laboe - the drive to Laboe is set to last 1h15
19.00 The museums close
19.15 We leave Laboe - at the latest
20.30 Arrival in Puttgarten - we mustn't get there later than 20.30
20.45 The ferry leaves Puttgarten - I suggest we eat some dinner at the ferry.
21.15 Arrival in Rødby
23.00 Arrival in Cph - provided we have made no stops back home.

This van from Hertz seems to cost 1695 dkk. I'm sure it's just the rent, and that some other expences will come on top of it, like maybe insurances, and of course fuel too. If we need to stop along the way, this is one important reason to do so. And this prize is ONLY, if we're not increasing in participation number. If so, I'll have to check for alternatives to the 9 person van, so we may need a 7 person van and a car.
The ferry is 500 dkk.
So the prize for now is 2195 dkk / 9 = 244 dkk. We will do the final calculations, when we're back in Cph as to how much we each have to pay. Expect to pay more.

The screencaps. First a map of Cph. I have made a circle around the hotel (6) and around the street Ved Vesterport. So if someone should be late, it's either at the hotel at 7.30 or at the Hertz office at Ved Vesterport at 8.15. I know it sounds provocative, but I could be one of those, who would be late. :rotfl: But I'm sure, if it happens that you can make the walk yourself. When I arrive, I actually arrive at the small train station, Vesterport. So just in case, you have been warned...
Then two screenshots of the van with info, also with an image of the Hertz logo, so you know it - and what to look for just in case...
Then the ferry schedule and prize. It will be with the shoppingticket, which lasts for one day. I hope it's okay to stay in Germany this many hours. Otherwise they had another one-day ticket of 895 dkk I think...
Then some maps and driving info, which I have posted here previously...

The deadline has been passed, and the current list shows 9 people.
So these 9 will be going on the van from Copenhagen to Kiel and back.
I'll call the Hertz agency later to reserve a van for us and update this post, if the info I have posted above needs serious corrections.

Anyone else... tough luck. You had your chance, and you'll have to arrange transport on your own, if you wanna take part of the Laboe meet.

So I repeat in capital:

THE VAN RENTAL IS LOCKED, NO MORE REGISTRING POSSIBLE.

EDIT:
I have just called the agency and asked them to reserve the van. They couldn't tell me now, if it's available, but they will notify me later today.
The price for the van is 1695dkk and includes the first 100km. Each extra km is 5dkk.
Our route is about 2*255km = 510km. That is 410km * 5dkk = 2050dkk+1695dkk+500dkk = 4245dkk / 9 = 472dkk for each of us.
And I still think we'll have to pay for fuel too. It wouldn't surprise me. So expect something like 500dkk in total. (96.26$ or 67.17€)

To be updated...

That's 9 people.

If anyone else wants to go on our van, they need to speak up by Sunday Sept 6.

Once we lock in our rental, we cannot change it.

thanks
Neal

Crap, I missed the deadline... this means either changing the travel plans, or bumming a ride off someone (I don't have a car)

I'll browse the forum and see what the possibilities are

Roger that, thanks and keep us posted. IF for some reason we cannot get the 9 person van, we would need two cars, right?

Thank you very much for being the go-to guy and getting this set up. Everyone listed will be responsible for an even share of the rental, ferry and fuel charges. I will be on hand to cover you for any out of pocket charges, such as a member not having the money to pay his share on the spot.

Oh, sorry I didn't really confirm, but yes, I'm changing my flight date to make it in time. I'll be arriving the 15th (tuesday). I have yet to confirm the time of arrival, and anything hotel-related.

Cheers

I just make this post to confirm to the other 8 Kiel participants that I have received a confirmation mail that the van is reserved in my name.

It would be nice if you have 500dkk in cash ready, since the amount will be withdrawn from my credit card. The final pay will be made thursday, when the van has to be back before 8am. After that, we'll make the final calculations, exactly how much money was spent on the van, ferry and fuel.

Why don't you and Martes share a car? By the day of the trip there will probably be one or two more to split the bill with.

Ehhh... martes is on the list for the van.

But it may be possible that others want to go too. They will just have to speak up and arrange something on their own, and pretty fast, since the day approaches rapidly...

Yes I am.

BTW, how does this work with the "DKKs" anyway? It's been a long time since I used anything other than euros (basically, since we lost our national money and got the Euros). We can't pay in Euros in Denmark?

Look here:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...97&postcount=8

Sorry for you that you lost the Peseta - did your prices rose without the same happening for the salaries? Just curious...
We had a referendum, where most of us voted no to the Euro, and ever since, the Yes-politicians have been talking about the best moment to do a new referendum, cause they want the Euro, whatever the majority wants it or not... I voted no, for your info, and I'm pretty sure, I will do it again.
