\Thanks a lot.

Is no. 2 also arrangement? If yes, then what is the difference? Or is no. 2 a causal future? What does it mean by 'causal future'?
have you followed fivejedjon link ? - there is the answer
1. I am having a meeting with Ann next Monday. (arrangement)
2. I will be having a meeting with Ann next Monday.

1. I am having a meeting with Ann at 12 o'clock.
2. I will be having a meeting with Ann at 12 o'clock.

The difference I see is that the first sentence states that the meeting will start at 12 o'clock. The latest just say that at 12 o'clock you will be at the meeting nothing about when it started.


1. I am having a meeting with Ann next Monday.
2. I will be having a meeting with Ann next Monday.

In the first sentences the intended message is that you have an arrangement.
The second sentences are more likely to occur when you explaining why; what will be happening at given time; it's because I'll be having a meeting .....
the arrangement is implied but it's not usually the intended message.

You just don't get it, so it makes no sense to discuss with you anymore.

Maybe I'm not the one who isn't getting it.
Your sentences have to mean what you want them to mean.

If you want them to mean 'If you want to (see)(say goodbye to) us tomorrow when we are leaving, don't go to the cinema.', then say that.
People shouldn't have to guess what your intended meaning is.

As a learner I am not always able to say what I wanted to.
Please be aware of it.
