The Monday of the three day weekend in Japan at the beginning of January '06 falls on the 9th. Hmmm......

Not so convenient for the U.S. contingent. Have to ponder that one. If I put in a request early enough, I may just be able to manage the MLK weekend again. It would seem to suit most attendees best.

I shall get back to you on this in a few weeks. Probably after the 330 day limit date but still well in advance of the 6 schedule and aircraft changes to take place on the various JFK/ORD/SFO/LAX - NRT/HKG/SIN routes. Upgrades should be eminently possible. My criteria for dates will be the ease of travel for the majority (i.e. a three day weekend in the U.S. if possible) and the ease of getting upgrades from the most reasonable economy fares to business.

Stay tuned...
