=== Getting to the venue ===

Most visitors will probably stay in Las Palmas center. A shuttle bus will be

there on both weekday event days and pick us up to the venue. So if you

dont want to navigate to the location on your own be ready-to-go

'''pickup at 9:00am at Hotel Concorde, afterwards (~5 mins later) pickup

at Hotel Parque'''.

In case you miss the bus or have to arrive later or something goes wrong, there's the ''Guagua'' bus 26 going from Santa Catalina to the university, see the [http://www.guaguas.com/pdf/plano_universidad.pdf map of Líneas Zona Universitaria (PDF)] and [http://www.guaguas.com/tulinea/26 stops and timetable]. Get off the bus at ''Ciencias Básicas'', which is one stop after ''Biblioteca Universitaria'' near the top of a steep hill and one stop before the final stop ''Campus Universitario'', to reach the building of ''Informática y Matemáticas'', we are in the room ''Aula 1-2'', third door on the right after the main entrance.

== Travel Bursaries ==

The Document Foundation may be able to refund tickets to and from the Gran Canaria Summit, after prior approval by the organizers, under the following conditions:

* transportation and accomodation in a shared hotel room with single beds as available on location

* volunteer-first - people affiliated with a company involved in LibreOffice work will come last

* first-come-first-served - participants will get reimbursed in order of their sign-up on the wiki attendance list, until budget runs out.

* ask the organizers as soon as possible (ideally right before booking) if budget is still available. Be aware of the fact that tax law requires us to collect original receipts, so please keep them (or hand them in right there in Gran Canaria)

Please be economic and pick cheap travel - flights to Gran Canaria should still be available at a reasonable price.

'''For those who attended:''' If you'd like to request a travel reimbursal, please follow the HowTo at [[TDF/Policies/Refunding]] for the SPI refunding, and mail [mailto:treasurer@documentfoundation.org treasurer@documentfoundation.org] with your documents.
