·I did that once and while it was very enjoyable but my word was I tired. Very long day!
Cannot speak for the TH stand this year as I was not there in person but it certainly seems like there as a lot more on show for the public. It is a bit hit and miss for some of the brands.
Have you been before?
I'm not that far from city airport; it's maybe a 15minute drive so it's not too bad.
And nope.
Past conversations with brand employees suggested it's not, or at least wasn't, very non-retail industry friendly. For instance, more than one brand boutique manager relayed to me that if they weren't there for work, it's not guaranteed that they have access either.
Having SalonQP here later in the year kinda makes Basel secondary, especially given that it is a show for enthusiasts as opposed to retailers.
