12. Q: If we stay with friends, how can we get the welcome package?
    A: That's why we ask for your contact in Toronto if you do not need hotel accommodation. Your friend will be asked to pick up the package before your arrival. Without a tag, one can seriously block the entrance procedure and security measures.

(using the same red lanyard) All alumni must have their name tag for entrance. Can you get in a concert without bringing your tickets?

    問: 本地校友如何才能取得姓名牌及禮物換領券?
    答: 所有已付餐費的本地各社校友將會事前經由各社班頭派發新的姓名插咭及禮物換領券(沿用紅色掛帶)给予各社赴宴校友。赴宴時必須戴上姓名牌(大會身份證), 試問如果閣下忘記携帶演唱會入場票, 閣下能否進入會場?
    因不能出示姓名牌(大會身份證)者,定會嚴重阻塞入場通道而引致秩序和保安措施的混亂.切記！切記！大會恕不設現售門票, 所有席座都是預訂。

14. Q: Why security measures?
    A: You might not be able to recognize your friend whom you haven’t seen for ages, Then how can you expect people at the entrance to recognize everybody ? We must depend on the name tag to prevent unsolicited personnel to enter. Everybody will be talking to everybody & not leaving their personal belongings on their chairs!
    問: 為甚麼要執行保安措施?
    答: 閣下多年不見的同窗好友,您也許不能立刻相認，更何况接待處的校友呢？ 只能倚靠姓名牌去識别校友，提防不速之客. 因各校友將會到處交誼而將私人物品放置座椅上， 籲請各校友貴重物品定要隨身，若有遺失，大會決不負責 。

15. Q: What else can the name tag do?
    A: If someone walk by and noticed a name whom he/she has known way back in time, This alone will make the trip worthwhile!
    問: 為甚麼要用姓名牌?
    答: 如有同窗校友擦身而過,若看到一個熟悉的名字，相逢的喜悦，已不枉此行. 故切記定要掛上姓名牌(大會身份證)作自我介绍。

16. Q: What happens if we have too much luggage and want to keep some at the hotel until we come back from the 7-days tour ?
    A: As long as there are no valuables, extra luggage can be arranged to be kept at the hotel for the week. Please make prior arrangements. Do not give us all the luggage just prior to boarding the 7-day tour bus. It will cause unnecessary delays.
    問: 如有額外不需用行李, 可否寄存於假日酒店, 七天遊後取回 ?
    答: 可以，只要沒有貴重物品, 並需預早安排. 請於出發前一天交出並親自向假日酒店辦理。(如有遺失，聯誼大會恕不負責).

17. Q: What is the advantage of all meals inclusive for the trip ?
    A: We might not be able to look after everybody if it's individual choice for meals. All inclusive meals will ensure equality and collective enjoyments.
    問: 全程包餐有什麼優點?

    問: 行程中是否有觀鯨節目?
