Marsland, Levy, and van den Herik were there.

It bothers me when you write stuff like this because you assume the
worst, you report the worst, and I don't think you check, either.

You don't report what they paid for these flights (two from Europe, I
assume), and you don't report what hotel they stayed in or how much it
cost.

You had a lot of opportunity to ask these questions.

Maybe you could ask these questions and report the answers.
