> Airport  there is one, well connected to all others in Europe and there are
> direct flights from Atlanta so that should be not the problem.
> Visa, Austria is member of the european union, so no problems for europeans
> or
> us/canadian citizen. For the rest who needs visa, should be no problem for
> the
> organizers of invite them if it needed for visa application
> Hotels are also not really a problem, you can have rooms for prizes between
> 20-500€ a night. Not far from the venue is a youth hostel what would be a
> cheap solution, its not an normal one, they have only double rooms with
> shower
> and closet in the room so more a hotel then a hostel.
> Even you choose a hotel far from the venue, public transport is very good.
> There are also public bikes available.
