LAX dinner with Captain Flanagan on Saturday, November 14!

lucky9876coins · Oct 21, 09, 9:17 pm

The always awesome Captain Denny Flanagan will have a layover near LAX in a few weeks, and would love to have dinner with FlyerTalkers. He'll be in town on Saturday, November 14, but has an early flight on Sunday morning so dinner would have to be early.

We'll meet at the Daily Grill in El Segundo at around 5PM. The reservation is under the name "Ben."

So, who's interested?

PS: If you'd like to fly in with Captain Denny, he'll be flying UA842 from ORD to LAX on Saturday and UA18 from LAX to DEN on Sunday.

Grrrr, that's my Florida weekend.

Grrrr, I return to New Zealand on the 10th.

Please put me down as a maybe. Will probably try and snag one of the flights as well.

FortFun · Oct 22, 09, 12:05 am

Call me a strong maybe, with designs on UA18, despite it's painfully early departure time...

UAL4life · Oct 22, 09, 12:20 am

Put me down for yes!

**FlyinHawaiian** · Oct 22, 09, 12:23 am

Sounds like fun; count me in.

I also booked ticket on UA 18 LAX-DEN on Sunday 11/15.

Pat89339 · Oct 22, 09, 2:05 am

Maybe for me!

SS255 · Oct 22, 09, 10:45 am

I have a late-in-the day appointment which I can't really change, but I should be done early enough to make it down to the LAX area in time for dinner (even if a bit late).

Please add me to the confirmed list.

Me too. Move me to confirmed.

For $190, you can buy up to NF on UA 18.

I'll be flying in from Bogota that evening and am currently scheduled to arrive at LAX around 10:30p--but, as luck would have it, a Mexicana schedule change has given me flexibility to make changes to my ticket.

Now I have to decide if having my fourth dinner with Captain Denny is worth giving up a day in Bogota.

Thoughts? An after-party perhaps?

Grrrr, I'll be in P.S. at the La Quinta.

Sorry about the delay, the OP has been updated.

@ Matthew -- C'mon now, priorities.

I was reminded over the weekend of something I had committed to for the evening of the 14th, so I am a "maybe" for dinner. I am still looking forward to flying with Captain Denny and a few other FTers on UA 18 LAX-DEN.
