While I'd love to (apply to) come to one of those, it will have to be a later one: my planning horizon is much longer than one month and change.

I suspect this is more likely to be the case for those of us who are "older" (I'm taking that to mean "older than any of the instructors").

May I suggest scheduling and announcing the next one well ahead of time, like six months or so?

Yep I agree. not just for Being Older (which leads to scheduling considerations, including a requirement to give advance notice of "holidays" from normal work hours)... but also coming from a different continent - thus requiring advance notice to book flights that aren't ridiculously overpriced.
