And then the those who won Spicies.
Since they added vendors, that's like nine new people from that one thing per year. Even at six per year, that's 66 people. Then the PCs. But I know that there are a lot of vendors with awards. So assume more like 80.
If you have attendance of 1,000 and 80 are free, that's 8%. Now there are more than 1,000 attendees, but I bet that there are a bit more than 80 free tickets, too.
AFAIK SpiceLeaders are still getting free tickets and that much be dozens of additional people. Most of the freebie people that I know aren't part of the 80.
I specifically noted out SpiceLeaders. But those are not "lifetime" tickets.
I did not realize that the vendor Spicies also resulted in a free ticket.

They kind of are. Each SpiceCorps gets one or two tickets "for life". It's the life of the SpiceCorps, not the organizer. So different, but same effect. Which human gets to use the ticket will change over time, but the fact that the ticket remains is more or less static.

From that point of view, yes.

because that ticket price is nothing compared to the air line/hotel bill/food, etc.
I have a free ticket for life.
A lot of people do at this point.
A lot is pushing it, I would say.
All the PC people like yourself and @dbeato
And then the those who won Spicies.There are many others that get free tickets for their role, but those are not for life.
Such as myself as a SpiceLeader or anyone selected as a Speaker.Obviously, behind the scenes from the marketing side, there are probably plenty of free tickets given out. I know various tech writers have gotten them over the years, etc. but again, not for life.
Yes, since I won I Spicy Award I do get the Free Ticket for life but for the PC I did not know that as I wasn't given that choice or any extras.

It is still there. But I'm not aware of any other perks. That was the only one.

I really want to, but because they hold it in the one country where I have extremely limited time allowed (without paying massive penalties), I can't afford to spend a single day in the country without it being spent with family

That is your choice to avoid taxation. Nothing else.

My choice to avoid an enormous price for visitation. It's not my choice to tax in that way, it's my choice to live within the constrains that cannot be avoided.
