This new annual thread has been carved out of the previous thread in an effort to reduce the number of megathreads on the AC forum. For those interested the original 2004 - 2014 thread on the topic may be found here.
That original thread started by accident but quickly became a popular place to come and discuss off topic things such as hockey, new movies, or almost anything that wouldn't fit into existing AC forum threads. More Air Canada or Aeroplan topics such as flight feedback, in-flight services issues or mileage earning/redemption are all topics that should go into existing AC forum threads so others can benefit from this information. Topics about other airline/hotel loyalty programs should be posted elsewhere on FT.
While the conversation is more relaxed as it would be in a lounge that doesn't mean however that the FT rules don't apply her as they definitely do so please refrain from controversial topics such as politics or religion, avoid profanities and treat other lounge patrons with the same respect you expect.

Since February, I've been suggesting doing a Do @ 40,000.
It really shouldn't be that difficult. We've got some very talented FTers here, who I'm sure can come up with an algorithm of sorts to determine the most optimal flight on which to do this. Or consider 2 flights from different sides of the country, but in the air at about the same time)

We would definitely be a raucous bunch so if we were to do a FL400 DO, I suggest we occupy an entire J section as to not piss off the other peon J pax

I've bumped into FTers on various international flights, and even some very well known AC management types on various flights... but instead of wanting to talk, all I do is sleep

Well, we could always party on a Rapidair flight or Western Triangle. There are certainly enough of them. I'd even bring the Melba Toast. Oh wait, we should all order special meals just to see what happens.

LMAO. FP, now there's an idea.
We could even come up with a special FT Menu for the Do @ 40,000

Look people, we can't have "Denied Boarding" BEFORE we've even gotten on the plane.
