Rich/51/YYC/Calgary, Canada

I work for an Perth, Australia based company. I am in Perth at the moment, but heading back to Calgary on the weekend to get some Stampeding in!

I fly regularly to/from Perth. I am glad Air Canada has the direct YVR-SYD route. Avoids all the INS hassles when in transit.

Hey everyone! Used to be a fairly regulary FTer (>5 years ago) but fell off the boat ... now I'm back (alas, under a new name since memory isn't so good these days).

Rob ... 29 ... Dumbo, Brooklyn, NY, USA ... JFK is airport home ...

Occupation: I manage operations for a financial services firm's internal audit department. Yes, very exciting!

Next Trips: Orlando next week (Out & Equal!) and then Singapore from 30 Oct. to 7 Nov.

My Devotions: Delta and Starwood. Also have miles/points banked with American, U.S. Air, and Hilton from my former job (which was near-constant travel).

Looking forward to getting back involved!

PS: The BF lives in YYZ, so I've been spending a lot of time shuttling back and forth ... fun city!

Thanks! The story behind the handle: a friend had asked a gaggle of us to figure out what our stage name would be if we ever did drag. This is what I came up with!

Intro

I'm Mike, 36, live in Long Beach, CA.
I am solely devoted to AA at this time. Fly on them or partners as much as possible. I work in IT, networking mainly.

I read through FT intermittently, but more as I'm approaching a trip somewhere. I go through phases I guess.

Cool INTRO

Aaron/25/LGA or JFK/Brooklyn, NY

Hi all...recently learned of FT. Super excited. I've always been interested in flying for mileage accrual, but I'm finally at a point where I can afford to do so! Any tips or pointers will be uber helpful. I've been checking out all the stickies, and old threads for tips on MRs.

Anywho, I'll be at NYC Gayla this weekend. Looking forward to meeting some of you!

--Aaron
