Subject: RE: [uddi-spec] UDDI TC FTF in JULY now confirmed


Luc,

Most "systems" allow you to put in MOW, which is the code covering all of
the Moscow-area airports.  SVO is home to most international airlines, while
Swiss flies into DME (British Airways was also thinking of moving there, but
I don't think they moved yet).  VKO and BKA serve domestic flights,
international charters and other special-purpose needs, which you probably
don't care for.

If your system does not accept MOW and you have no direct flight to Moscow
available (I know Luc should have a direct one), then I suggest checking the
DME option in addition to SVO.  I used Swiss last week and found the
experience to be quite pleasing.  They fly into DME from Zurich and Geneva,
Zurich being the bigger hub with a number of transatlantic connections.

Daniel

Daniel,

I'm in the process of looking at flight itineraries. What airport should
we land at? The "system" give me a choice of 4:

BKA  Bykovo Arpt Moscow    Russian Federation
DME  Domodedovo Arpt Moscow    Russian Federation
SVO  Sheremetyevo Arpt Moscow    Russian Federation
VKO  Vnukovo Arpt Moscow    Russian Federation

Thanks,
Luc

Group,

I'm glad UnitSpace finally appears set to have the honor of hosting the
next FTF.

Indeed obtaining an invitation is part of the process of getting to
Moscow and I cannot help here other than recommending that you get a
"full visa service", which includes the invitation part of it.  Those of
you who work for a transnational corporation (IBM, Microsoft, SAP, etc.,
you know who you
are) can most likely obtain an invitation through your company's Russian
subsidiary.

Visatorussia.com is a legitimate company I've done business with.  The
only reason I did not mention them in my earlier email on the subject
was because they do not accept credit cards (or they did not a couple of
years ago when I worked with them).  By all other criteria, including
location (both are in Atlanta), visatorussia.com is just like
gotorussia.com, which I did mention.
In analyzing the two visas issued to me at different times with the help
of visatorussia.com and gotorussia.com I had once come to a conclusion
that they are partners whereby one gets all the visas for both of them.
I do not know if this is still the case though or if some other form of
integration was at work.

You can see a list of travel agencies handling Russian visas throughout
the world at http://www.visatorussia.com/russianvisa.nsf/agents.html.
Curiously gotorussia.com is also listed on this visatorussia.com's page.

Guys,

To get a visa you need a special invitation. I'm not sure if Daniel will
provide them.
You can buy them online from
http://www.visatorussia.com/russianvisa.nsf/tourist_visa_support.html
I haven't used their services myself, but they don't look like
fraudsters ;)

DISCLAIMER: don't blame me if they runaway with your $$$ :))) I gonna
try them myself later when the dates are firm.

Cheers,
Max
