I figured most of you would enjoy being behind the counter seeing what we actually do, understand what we do and best of all, to answer that question "will I get upgraded today" a million times!

I'm more than willing to host any of you at SFO, at any time that I'm working....but I would need official permission.

I'd bet that if you did this at the right airport you'd even get to learn how to keep away from angry coworkers!
HA HA HA

I will now proceed to get Official Permission before I do that again.

his disappointment with the last vegas event + getting 'blocks' of rooms so as not to overpay + 'fun and games' = an event in vegas.

not to mention they were having breakfast there planning it...

just my guess.

If we have a "Bring an elite to work day" everyone will find out that we have 6 of the new BF lie flat seats in the crew bunks on the 777! Seriously though I think it is an awesome idea!

Can we have a Lanch Party also? And can I head up the Committee to Plan Parties since he gets the Party Planning Committee?

No need for EQMs, already requalified for the year... but at least is a cheap flight, especially with the travel certs I have, would be free

I'll give you a hint about the event location -- since Liberace died there's been a lot less cheese in Vega$.

Sorry, forgot this was NEXT year, not this year, LOL

I have quite a bit of travel the first two months of 2009 already in the works, so will be at least halfway there by then
