Congress delegate logistics

18 delegates, two hotels, five arrival flights

Eighteen congress delegates arriving on five flights over two days, split between a city-centre hotel and one at the congress venue. Transfers, travelcards and on-call support were handled for the full five days.

Helsinki & the Capital Region · Congress side-programme · 5 days · Summer · June 2025

The brief

Five separate arrival flights across two days, two hotels in different parts of the city and a congress schedule with no room for a missed transfer.

What we did

Each flight had its own private transfer, sized to the number of passengers on it. Four-day Helsinki travelcards were delivered to hotel reception two days before arrival, so delegates collected them at check-in. One contact answered for the agency throughout.

From the programme

Five flights, two hotels, one transfer plan per flight.
