AWE has a great show.

Webmaster Access Amsterdam is awesome too.

Not sure how many shows the world needs. Seems like a waste of time. I live in the u.s. and I won't go.

American's don't want to spend 2500 bucks round trip to go to a trade show, another 1200 in hotel. You should really look at the ROI.

Searched this:

5:45am
DFW 10:35am
PRG

Arrives 16 Feb
1-stop
Atlanta
(10 hr 13 min layover)

From $2,756.80 round trip
+ $75.82 Taxes/Fees = $2,832.62

+ Hotel at roughly 1200 give or take. Time from work. If I want to spend this kind of money I want to take a real vacation. There are tons of shows to attend for 1/4 this price to network.

Just honest opinion here. Americans are not going to Europe in droves. The economy sucks. We aren't spending money on traveling to Europe for shows.

Target the European market, save your headache.
