So I'm confused... We're we talking about the possibility of sticking to one European city, one north American city and one Asian city and not picking various cities throughout the world. I was just suggesting picking -a- city in Europe that was not multiple hops from most US hubs. Prague, while a nice city, isn't one hop and as Dave pointed out this adds costs and time, just as would choosing a US city that is multiple hops from major European hubs. I loved Vancouver and would go back there over and over again. I like Minneapolis for convenience and venue and would go there every time. I liked Prague, both times, but had trouble getting there both times and it did add time and cost.
