Star Alliance MegaDO - Sponsored by Aegean

I just read that the next MegaDo will be around Greece, and sponsored by Aegean. Will include visits to Athens and Mykonos and operated by a chartered Aegean aircraft. Participants get one year free M+B Gold status and there is a contest for 100K miles and a 5 year extension on status.

Join us at Star MegaDO 7 from September 13th to 16th! The event will take place in Europe and will take us through Zurich (ZRH), Hamburg (XFW), Mykonos (JMK) and Athens (ATH):
Fly ZRH/XFW/JMK/ATH on our chartered MegaDO A320 operated by Aegean!
Go behind the scenes at Zurich airport.
Tour the new SWISS C-Series aircraft.
Mingle with the Star Alliance CEO.
Land at Airbus’ private airport and tour the Airbus facilities in Hamburg.
Watch the sunset on Mykonos island with Starwood Preferred Guest!
Go behind the scenes at Athens airport.
And much more!
The downside? I just read that registration opened and apparently sold out already. Would have been nice to get to see a day behind the scenes at ATH!

Is anyone from here going?

And they didn't bother to put a heads-up in the Aegean thread?

How very sporting.

Mingle with the Star Alliance CEO.
How does one mingle with just one person?

Perhaps we should, as FT group, try to organize something. Not by chartering an aircraft, but a meetup at ATH would be cool - especially if we could get Aegean involved with a tour or other activity(s)..

Good idea. I'm in. We just need someone to arrange it, by pulling some strings above. But doubt they would do an extra DO.

I have been waitlisted for StarMegaDO7, and I received today an email about empty seats! Finally, I will not be able to participate, so if anyone feels ready to go, send me a pm to connect you with them.

I can not go either unfortunately, and did not sign up. However, I would be happy to get the *G if the next person doesn't need it
