vocab challenge no. 1 - meet VS meet up

Howdy, I was wondering if there is any difference between:

meet and meet up

For example:

How about we meet at 12.00 tomorrow?
How about we meet up at 12.00 tomorrow?

Let's meet at 12.00 tomorrow.
Let's meet up at 12.00 tomorrow.

I suppose meet up sounds more idiomatic... 
  

Top answer

Perfect Stranger I suppose meet up sounds more idiomatic. Yes, I'd say so: more informal. It's also used for more intricate meeting arrangements, too, I think—as with travel arrangements.
