Follow Up to AA NYC 2010 DO?

I was one of the participants and as one who had a great time, I wanted to see if there was interest in doing something for 2011. Not necessarily that I want to organize it as Tylerdurden did a great job last January.

All I'm saying is after seeing the *A and UA/CO guys host multiple events this year, I want some AA rah rah!

Depending on my work/travel schedule, I would definitely be interested in attending an event. Disappointed I missed 2010!

We should definitely have on in 2011. it would be great to have one like the UA people do with a tour of AA facilities and Q&A with AA at JFK or DFW.

I'd love to put faces to handles--I travel to and through JFK frequently so could definitely make it happen with enough notice!

If it is something over a weekend, (could start on a fri) count me in, most vacation days for 2011 are already allocated.

I'm gone every weekend through the end of March except for one (already thinking about EXP qualification for next year). But if I'm around I would like to attend. Free booze now in the AC!

IIRC, Juanefny was the one that got the ball rolling a few years ago on the DL forum, which eventually resulted in the first annual DL SkyMiles FT event held at DL headquarters. (I recently met someone who attended the 2nd annual incarnation of that event, and he gave it 2 big thumbs up! ^^ He talked it up so much that I think he may have even convinced me to go if it happens again next year! )

I'm in Dallas and have a couple of mid-level contacts at AMR -- I can try to look into a tour next time I'm out there, but I definitely can't make any promises. It would be good to have a CK member with some pull ask as well!

I know you're looking for JFK, but I figured I would offer.

Anything is possible but color me pessimistic. Such an event has been investigated previously with little success.

Generally, FlyerTalk DOs are announced and discussed in CommunityBuzz http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/communitybuzz-380/

Perhaps this one is different because it involves only one airline.

The third stickie there, "The Consolidated Do-List Thread," is maintained by Jenbel and is a handy way to see all the upcoming get-togethers listed in one posting.
