I couldn't figure out how to change my existing vote - maybe not possible since I don't have a Doodle account or whatever - but the 19th should be doable for me, but not the 20th. Although I'd be aiming to catch AC161 home, so probably not staying much later than 21:00, so I'm not sure how much my vote should count.

It actually looks like I can adjust anyone's... maybe because I did use my account?

But I see you just added yourself in a new row, so that seems fine.

But now the 19th is 7 yes, and the 20th is 7 yes and 1 maybe.

Either way, those two nights seem by far the most popular.

I'm back home from YYZ, so unfortunately won't be able to attend. Hope you all have fun!

Good thing I am in town for the weekend in the first time in over 3 months. Will try to make it unless some of the other FTers dont want me there.

At this point, perhaps the best option to follow the YOW do's approach, and split the YYZ do into two dates.

If you don’t mind me suggesting, perhaps those able to move to nearby YOW MiniDo and we cancel YYz for this year?

sorry, I’m just super busy lately

The 19th in downtown Toronto works well for some of us...

I'm pretty flexible with location, but downtown is fine.

A poached Do! I like it.

Sad to be missing out on this AND the YOW Do. If that wasn't the one weekend in the next six months with a scheduled sleepover with my favourite small humans I'd find a way.

Somewhere near the UPX would be ideal!

Union is convenient for pretty much everyone. The bovine and I will be flying YOW-YYZ that day, so we could hang out in the MLL to meet others too.

I'll figure it out by end of day Saturday.

Maybe someone should change the thread title to indicate it's happening on the 19th

Which YOW-YYZ are you guys on?

Is that official?

We're on the last one because it was the only one with K space. But we bought CO because we had no idea if any of this was happening, so we have free SDC and standby, and my expectation is that we'll be in the YOW MLL around noon, trying for every flight. Maybe with SDC, maybe with standby... it depends how we feel and how close we're getting to the timing of the YYZ do.

As for official, I'm willing to take this over and "select" the 19th, given that it has the best response on Doodle at the moment.
