Yesterday we were put out of our misery as the next Star Trek Destination was finally revealed. Carole and Sam met up to discuss their thoughts and hopes for Destination Star Trek Germany and as usual, looking for clues…..

At a glance:
Location: Frankfurt Messe, much bigger than London ExCel. Two airports serving.
Ticket Prices: Comparable to DSTL at today’s exchange rate.
The difference is with the premium ticketing options with Silver, Gold, Platinum and VIP fairing slightly cheaper than DSTL. Whilst offering roughly the same. The only significant difference is at DSTL a Captains Talk was included. So we presume the price difference is due to this.
From comparing, we’d either go Silver or Latinum (and that ain’t no typo!). Also note that priority queuing is available only for Latinum and VIP. This is bad news if you normally would go Gold, but good news if you go Standard. Now you have less people able to jump in front of you.

The format of the event looks fairly similar to DSTL with the following events:
Opening Ceremony
Talks
Autographs
Photo’s
Museum
Costumed World Record Attempt
Parties
…All we need now is a wedding! (Maybe a Betazoid ceremony!?)
Other things:
This is being organised by the same team who hosted the London Event, a joint venture between Media 10 and Showmasters. It also appears to have CBS backing again with StarTrek.com promoting the event.
Keep an eye on the Showmaster forum for this event, it is helpful for getting travel ideas, asking questions about ticket options and for feedback.
