USEFUL AREA MAPS

COMPLIMENTARY PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION PASSES FOR LPC 2014 ATTENDEES

We have partnered with the public transport company in Düsseldorf to provide a transportation pass, called KombiTicket, for each person registered for the Linux Plumbers Conference 2014. The pass will be printed on each attendee’s badge and will need to be presented, together with a valid ID document, to bus drivers and subway attendants in order to gain free access to transport . The pass is valid within the city’s zone 43, which includes the airport and all the LPC 2014 venues (hotels, conference center, evening events locations). The pass is valid only from Sunday, October 12th 2014, to Sunday, October 19th 2014.
First trip to the conference center: You will receive an email with a PDF file which serves as a free ticket for a single trip on public transportation to the CCD SÜD in order to pick up your badge (including a stop at the hotel). Print it before arriving to Düsseldorf and carry that with you. Note that this special ticket can be used only once, afterwards you will have to use your badge. In addition it would be wise, if you can, to print your registration receipt (obtained by accessing your registration record here: https://www.regonline.com/Register/Checkin.aspx?EventID=1370664) and carry that as well. The pass can be used only between Sunday, October 12th 2014, and Sunday, October 19th 2014.
