Dear NT07 participant -- for those of you, who are attending NT07 and unaware of the news, in the last two days we have been experiencing serious flight delays of several hours for intra-Brazilian flights. We are hopping the low trafic of the weekend will be enough to put the flights in order, but you may have to wait long hours. We are very sorry and we hope to find you in good spirits at NT07 this weekend. If you need to talk to the organizers, please call us

- How to dress for NT07: The weather in Ouro Preto will remind you of Autumn weather in cold Northern countries. Please dress accordingly and do not forget to take comfortable walking shoes.

We inform that no official vacancy can be confirmed anymore in any of the listed hotels of Ouro Preto. However, Pampulha Turismo will do its best to try to confirm new reservations UNDER REQUEST BY E-MAIL eventos@pampulhaturismo.com.br , subject to availability .

We now have a MAP of Ouro Preto city showing where are the hotels, the conference center and some other important places (turism, bank, post office).

- In most cases, international flights go first to São Paulo (GUARULHOS AIRPORT - GRU) or to Rio de Janeiro (GALEÃO AIRPORT - GIG). In case you have problems to find domestic flights from São Paulo or Rio de Janeiro to Belo Horizonte (CONFINS AIRPORT - CNF), please contact our travel agency Pampulha Operadora Turística Ltda , or look at GOL ( www.voegol.com.br ) and TAM ( www.tam.com.br ). You may have to contact Pampulha Operadora Turística Ltda. to buy the tickets, because the companies usually have restrictions to foreign credit cards. Be aware there are two airports in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Belo Horizonte. Ask Pampulha Operadora Turística Ltda . for advice.
