Is it really necessary to punish the entire list with this garbage?

The claim above that "most airlines won't sell 6 months in advance" is false.

Since you're quoting me (calling it "claim above"), I have a hard time finding the exact text you're referring to in my writing ;-). I stated that most airlines wouldn't do such a pre-sale for July 2018 (IETF @SF) which happens 16 months in the future, so I stay correct.

Naeem


Most airlines, including all or nearly all major full-service international airlines, start selling tickets
at least 12 months before the departure date for the 1st flight on an itinerary.

To my knowledge, there are some people who already have purchased tickets to go to IETF in SFO.
This really ought not be surprising as the lowest-cost fares often sell-out earliest.  A number of
IETF people don't work for big companies and are traveling on their own money.   Those people
would suffer greatly from a change in location less than 12 months out.

I am aware that some have suggested the IETF do more remote meetings.  I think that is worth
exploring.

I certainly would support IETF making all future meetings more accessible remotely  - and I think
that is a goal the IETF has been making progress on for some years now, using Jabber, VTC,
and so forth.  Expanding the remote access capabilities and coverage for all future meetings
(to the extent that is practical at a given point in time) only makes sense.

Yours,

Ran
