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 previous versions are the original 2004 - 2014 thread , 2015 edition , and 2016 edition.
The 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 hotels or airlines and/or their loyalty programs or should be posted elsewhere on FT as should topics better suited to other forums such as Travel Products for questions about luggage or Travel Photography for discussion about cameras.
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.

Ha! Thanks. I'm guarding the few packs of Matcha and Hokkaido Melon form recent trips. Almost got run over by a couple from DCA who cleaned out the Wasabi and Matcha supply at the store neat the gate.
Still, exciting news. More exotic......

Just catching up on some threads today... ouch, looks like some posters have "foot in mouth" disease.

Thanks for sharing that as I'm pumped for season 3! This week on the local rock radio station the morning crew was talking about Rami Malek being cast as Freddie Mercury in a biopic and his starring role in Mr. Robot was mentioned but one announcer didn't know the show at all which made me yell at the radio instead of at the traffic.
Also eagerly awaiting final season of Halt and Catch Fire on AMC in a few weeks. Stellar cast. ^

Anyone up for a TYO/SYD do around the end of November? I know a bunch of us have tickets, though I'm not sure the dates.
I'm in Tokyo Nov 23-25 and Sydney Nov 26-29.

Isn't it a bit premature to start planning a Do given NH has a history of cancelling mistake fares?
By the way, no YYC Do next weekend unless you guys do one without me. But I could do a BOG Do!
I'm looking at September 23rd or 30th as the next time I could organize YYC Do.

I have one credit left on my FP and it expires Sep 23 so I have a very strong incentive for that date

That must be nice. Do you know how many miles you will get in total?
How about one in YVR instead? :P
