3) Where would you hold it? Them?

Cigar
1. Absolutely
2. ONE large event - a la CO DO IV - hub ones later.
3. Likely ORD for the big event since that is where UA is based.

P.S. Cigarman I thought you did 4 CO DO's. I attended all four!!
IAH CO DO I - Sat event at Marriott - Mexican Buffet in the upstairs tower with execs
IAH CO DO II - Sat event at Hanger with Texas BBQ
IAH CO DO III - Sat event - casino benefit night at PClub Term E
IAH CO DO IV - Sat event - mega Hanger event - contests, etc.

Although maybe DO IV was a Scott O'Leary DO.
