Sheraton NY Towers not the Sheraton Manhattan. I don't think i'll get lounge access, i'm on an award as an SPG Gold. Don't like my luck!

I live in Westchester County, I might be availible for dinner on the 29th, depends on if it's too expensive for this college student.

yyzprincess, sorry I haven't replied to your email - I was watching cricket, Australia versus India in my home town, Thursday & Friday and didn't come to work (cricket, to most Americans is a foreign game, but one of our national sports).

I've read your emails and got confirmation from Sheraton New York Hotel & Towers. Will email you seperately. Thank you for helping us get accom. You are indeed a princess and can't wait to introduce you to Mrs QF WP.

kawoh, thought you were at the Millenium?? Even better, I'm in same hotel as you and yyzprincess. Does this mean we get this deal??

Dinner on 29th sounds good - we might have got over our jet lag by then (but hoping the No Jet-Lag from Flyertalk will come in handy).

Our travel details can be found from our Community thread

(Edited to add last para)

Heya - Yep, i'll be staying there, i'm kinda hotel hopping, though it isn't a mattress run as much as a "i need a reasonably priced hotel room" run:

16-21 Dec - Millenium Hilton (Lower Manhattan)
21-27 Dec - NY Hilton & Towers (Midtown West)
27 Dec - 1 Jan - Sheraton Towers NY (will need to pack up and walk across the road on the 27 Dec!)

Unfortunately with that US$25 voucher with Sheraton NY Towers, it has a specific rate code, so I don't think you'll get that unless you booked under that rate code... I'm on a 5 night SPG nights/flights redemption.

Kawoh -

I'll be in Manhattan for business from Dec. 15 to Dec 18. I'll probably be at the Regent which is 2 blocks from the NYSE. Perhaps we can meet up. Keep in touch.

Ah no, every year for the past 15 I have attended the first 2 or 3 days of the First Test in Brisbane, with the same group of clients and friends - with my Chairman there as well for all 5 days, it was sanctioned

Pity, it ended in a draw today
