    Hotel

    Hotel Reservations

    When you register, you will be linked to the Gaylord Hotel & Resort site where you will make your hotel reservations (see arrival and departure dates). Single rooms will be assigned to all attendees. Each attendee is responsible for paying for their room, tax, and incidental charges associated with their hotel stay. At check-in you will need to provide a credit card that can be charged for these items. Following the summit, you can expense the costs for the approved nights of stay. If you do not have a credit card, please notify your manager to find a workable solution.

    Note: Attendees will not be allowed to request reimbursement for additional hotel nights outside the approved summit dates unless it has been approved in advance by your manager.

    Making Changes to Your Hotel Reservations

    You are responsible for updating the hotel with any changes to your reservation using either the web link or the phone number published on the registration web site.

    Negotiated Hotel Rates

    The negotiated hotel rate for a standard room is $199.00 (US) plus tax. Please be sure to check your bill to ensure you have not been over-charged when you check out of the hotel. It's always best to get a final copy of your bill before you depart so you can resolve charges while on-site.

    Check-in/Check-out Times

    Check-in for the hotel is 4:00 PM. Check-out is 11:00 AM.

    Ground Transportation (Getting to/from the Airport/Hotel)

    Uber is the official mode of ground transportation for the NA/Gov + Vertica GTM Summit, and should be used for ground transportation between the airport and the Gaylord Texan. If you choose not to use Uber, Taxi costs to/from the hotel/airport run about $35. We encourage you to rideshare with fellow employees if you are able. Be sure to save your receipt so that you can expense this cost after the summit.

    If you have not yet signed up for a Corporate Uber account, details are provided on the SharePoint here:https://microfocusinternational.sharepoint.com/sites/corp/Pages/introducing-uber-for-business.aspx

    Another option is to use the Gaylord’s shared transportation services which depart from the DFW Airport every 30 minutes (at every hour and half hour) between 5:00 AM – 8:00 PM daily. The fee is $17 per person. Guests arriving to DFW Airport should call 817-778-2400 to book their transportation to the hotel. Guests departing from the hotel to DFW Airport can also call to make a reservation, or simply walk up to the transportation podium on the front drive.

    Renting a car is not recommended and will be at your own expense. Rental car costs will not be reimbursed.

    Meals

    Breakfast and lunch are provided on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday for all attendees. Breakfast is provided on Friday for those attending the Technical Track. Most meals will be served buffet style with a wide variety of items to complement individual nutritional needs (i.e. vegan, vegetarian, gluten free).

    Tuesday Evening Group Dinners – Check back for more details on dinners and evening events.

    Wednesday Evening Event – Join your colleagues for dinner and entertainment featuring the band, Lone Star Attitude, at the Gaylord Texan Resort's exclusive waterfront venue, Glass Cactus. Here, you’ll enjoy stunning features and modern design aesthetics inspired by nature with a massive lake view that will take your breath away whether you're inside the building or enjoying a beverage on the expansive outdoor patio.

    Attire is casual (jeans okay) and you need your name badge for entry.

    Note: You will not be able to expense any meals that are already being provided as part of the summit. Thus, it is important that you attend all planned meals unless the meal is specified for a particular group that you are not part of.
