As an international participant, your flight is sponsored if it is stated so in the invitation letter. It is very important that you check your status in the letter prior to making any flight or hotel arrangements.

International participants will be met at the airport at their respective arrival times. There is no need for any personal transport arrangement unless you prefer to do so. However, should any of you be left unattended for some reason, due to unforeseen circumstances, please proceed with your own transport arrangement and you will be reimbursed upon arrival at the Pan Pacific Hotel.
