Drunk Cargo is thinking of scrapping most of the last day to earn two of the Mileage Run badges, since YOW and YUL are completely useless.
I was thinking of spending tmie with a friend in YOW and removing the YUL connection, but YOW-YYZ flights are packed that day (as is YYZ-SFO - I might be stuck in Y
), so I don't even know if I'll be able to SDC.
If there's no reason to leave the airports, I'm not leaving
But I'm happy to meet up wherever for drinks. I just don't have enough time to go downtown anywhere.
I'm also happy to attend a mini-do anywhere in North America on any Saturday night, but people on the AC forum seem to prefer week nights

"AC’s Social Media department wanted a copy of my itinerary, and didn’t realize that emailing it to himself this way would cause my email address to be replaced in the file."
I wonder if they wanted a copy because they know who Cows is and his participation here. I bet you they all want the coverage to be positive so they sent what he and DrunkCargo are doing to all concierges and watching his flights and experience carefully. If AC was properly run (not saying it isn't), it would be wise for them to do so.

The concierges have actually been awesome. A few times we've randomly encountered them in an airport and they've seen our madness, then said "oh I have a copy of your itinerary right here!"
Winnipeg has been the best (Don, John, Janice). Halifax has been pretty good, as has Edmonton. But most of the time when I've called, they've recognized my name as the crazy guy flying around. Except Toronto. They have no idea who I am, but I haven't had too many connections there.
But I'm actually really amazed with how great operations have been. Hardly any issues, even with deicing, snow, etc. AC has done well

I've been enjoying the safety cards and demonstrations. And yea, I'm not sure why FAs and others here would be surprised we're still talking after 7 days. I don't fart that much and I hope I'm not that much of a dink... =)
Time to grab a huge nap before the last 2 day stretch... wrt to the mini do, why not meet in the YYZ domestic lounge? I'm sure everyone here knows how to get in...
