Important Event Notes
  • Promo codes are not applicable to this event. Upgrades and AE redemptions are blocked by revenue management - you get what you pay for.
  • No hockey puck beef will be served! If it is, send it back! (Unless that's actually what you like, you weirdo?)
  • The Do website will be down for regularly scheduled maintenance. Often. But we won't bother to tell you in advance.

Important Event Notes (real ones this time!)
  • The burger and Scotch theme is purely optional. Those are the specialties of the restaurant, but you're free to have a salad and a diet Coke, fish and white wine or whatever floats your boat.
  • Buchanan's does weekly tasting flights for a slightly reduced price. We'll have access to a few of these from recent weeks for anyone who's interested.
  • The Do host has not achieved Dorian's level of wealth and generosity. No T-shirts or other swag will be provided.
  • Reservation is under Adam Smith, but that shouldn't really be necessary. We will be taking up most of the main dining room, to the left after walking into the restaurant.

This is the closest that I have ever come to being a frequent flier. I am there to meet as many of you as possible for the first time. I look forward to attending at Buchanan's. See you all there.
I added you to the wiki.

Actually yeah. I'll donate 15k and an IKK to this cause. But you are required to attend to MLL pre do.

I'd offer to trade 15k IKK for 15k regular, but I suspect that would violate FlyerTalk, Aeroplan, and Altitude rules.

All are welcome, from those who only fly to see Grandma every two years to those whose home is quite literally on an AC aircraft Look forward to meeting you Saturday.

You're coming! Cow has plenty of miles. PM him your booking details.

15k and an IKK won't leave him stranded anywhere. If it does he can PM a super elite kid for some help.

All of us get to read your updates on the other threads which is great, but now we get to put a face to the name and congratulate you on your interviews!

Not too late, you're all good.

Quite the explosion of late interest here... I may have to revise the reservation upwards. Funny, when I made it for 20, I thought I was being optimistic!
