2019:Volunteer/Conference Heroes/Airport volunteers

Summary of role

Welcoming attendees at Arlanda Airport. Answering questions such as how to get to the hotel.

We will have a small desk with a Wikipedia logo and a small sign which says Wikimania. It will be placed in Terminal 5, where we can welcome the attendees after they have exited customs.

Since we have a Wikipedia logo, we might be approached by interested people who are not at the airport because they are attending Wikimania. If you get questions about Wikipedia or Wikimedia you cannot answer, you can refer them to the present team leaders.

Getting to Arlanda Terminal 5

You can get to Arlanda with SL’s commuter trains. The stop is called Arlanda central. You will need to pay a special passage supplement fee to enter Arlanda if you arrive by train.

It is also possible to get to Arlanda by taking a bus from Märsta station. The stop is called Arlanda terminal 5. You will not need to pay the passage supplement fee to enter Arlanda if you arrive by bus.

Lunch and breaks

There will be two persons scheduled at Arlanda, so breaks for lunch and coffee can be coordinated between the two.

It’s possible to buy food at the Airport, e.g. in Sky City which is a short walk away.

There are public bathrooms at the airport.

Dress Code
