Reason: Table updated
Also, please post your interest here IN ADDITION to sending your info to the e-mail below.
All, we are now trying to price out everything, including connecting flights, please send the requested information to airbusdo@gmail.com as soon as possible to receive pricing for your routing:
For members joining from the US:
Unfortunately, Lufthansa cannot provide connection prices at favorable prices from your town to NYC to join the DO flight on November 3rd. However, LH will fly you to your city of preference on the return from Europe.
Please provide the following information (after posting your info in this thread) 1. Full name and Flyertalk handle
2. e-mail address
3. Current airline status levels
4. Are you interested in joining the official DO flight? The official DO flight, LH403 leaving EWR at 6PM on November 3rd
5. What city in the US would you like to fly to on your return on LH and what date would you like to return on
6. What class are you interested in (Y, C or F on the scheduled flights, Y or C on the chartered flight)
Ballpark prices (round trip with taxes and fees): LH scheduled flights to and from the US:
Y: 600 USD
C: 1500-2000 USD
F: ??
Charter flights: Y: 600 USD (more taxes if you start in FRA)
C: 1100-1500
PS! The more of the 4 chartered flights you take, the more landing fees and taxes you will be charged.
For members joining from European destinations
1. Full name and Flyertalk handle
2. e-mail address
3. Current airline status levels
4. What city would you like to originate at for the chartered flight
5. Do you need a connection to get to and from one of the chartered flight cities? Which one.
6. What class are you interested in (Y or C on the scheduled flights, Y or C on the chartered flight)
PS! If you are based in Scandinavia, please don't haul down to Frankfurt just to be a part of the first flight FRA-OSL. We will require a minimum of 40 participants in each city to do a pick up. We only need one stop to visit SAS, so if OSL doesn't have enough interested participants, it will be dropped.
Again, please post your questions here, info can be sent to: airbusdo@gmail.com
I would love to join this DO flight but can't swing the cost. I would love to volunteer to work the hanger party in EWR, as an employee of CO. Is this possible?
Mr & Mrs BiziBB would be very interested but cannot commit right now.
If it can be done on a BD redemption I'd try to get a flight back from SYD, via NZ, to also get to Wijomas' Hawkes Bay Do.
It would be great to include this great event in a BD longhaul Z2 redemption.
I just wanted to thank tommy777 and everyone helping - for including the generous invitation here.
I am definitely interested, +1, pending final price. I think I can swing the prices mentioned above. Not sure if I'd join from the US or join the fun in Europe.
). Please check if I got your details right. If not, please send an email to 
Can't miss an opportunity to party with CO! 
)
