Official Freddie Awards 2009 Invite
For the 21st consecutive year, I'm pleased to invite frequent flyers to share in the results and the pageantry (do you think i should wear another tuxedo this year?) of the annual
Freddie Awards . With more than 400 attendees expected, it hopes to continue the tradition of bringing frequent flyers and the industry together to acknowledge and celebrate those programs that are doing great things for their members -- even in difficult times.
Freddie Awards Invitation [2009]
I'll certainly be there and look forward to personally welcoming any of the members of FlyerTalk that can attend.

Thanks for the generous invitation, Randy!
I'm trying to get an itinerary together from Sydney, via NZ, Dublin and Dubai.
Those Emirates triple premium miles and some amazing DUB fares help me to
dream the impossible dream .
(it looks like shorts and sandals are out, for the evening; +1 with
missydarlin , seeing as you're asking for what to wear advice.
)

Should we have a post reserved for where FTers are staying in the FLL/MIA area?

Thanks for the generous invitation, Randy!
I'll do my best to be there, although I'm kind of bummed not to be earning miles for my travel down to FLL.

Your car will earn miles on its odometer on its drive from TPA or Gainsville

I'm likely there...I have a room at the Grande Hotel and Yacht Club (a Hilton...sort of) booked - $119/nt. including breakfast using a Spring Break 20% off promo. (See HHonors board.)
Marriotts were all expensive; Hiltons in general are more reasonable, with this Yacht Club place appearing to represent the best overall value.
