I hate to be that guy but really.
I was planning on attending, but my lot are at least beginning to seriously think about whether this is a good idea or not. Could anybody here who has decent contact with officials from the event possibly pester for some information on what it's looking like? I'm aware they sent out an email recently but I'm not very familiar with the workings of the event / who from the community has decent contact.

Regardless of whether it seems like it's worth it or not, I'm just going to be realistic and assume the entire thing will be called off come April time. Just want to think about it now so $ losses are kept to a minimum.

I booked non-refundably a couple months before corona was a thing so cu@ still.

I didn't walk around the city the past 2 years so if the LAN is canceled I'm just going on a citytrip w my friends. Genuinely upset LAN hugs won't be a thing this year though you can catch me crying about it at the mermaid statue and the zoo B)

Tomorrow theyre voting on a law in parliament to give them the judicial power they need to actually outright ban events with over 100 attendees. The content of said law is not currently known beyond the headline.
Is lan fucked? Probably yes.

If Denmark does not close its borders by the time LAN comes, it would be nice if we used this post (or another one) to list whp will still be there, that way we still get to meet people.

Also I did not buy cancellation insurance either, but seeing as it is bit of an uncommon scenario, I've seen people saying that you can try to at least call customer support to get a cancellation. Depends on the airline though I'd assume.

What I'm holping for right now is for the event to be rescheduled, so if that happen maybe customer service would just offer us new flights instead of a refund since I assume that would be easier for them (disclaimer, I know nothing about planes)

This outbreak may last 3-6 months, especially if it's intentionally stalled to keep hospitals less badly overwhelmed
