Wish AA would follow Finair's lead! (AY Customer input event)
Hello FT 
Finnair team would like to invite you to an event on 28.11 at 17:30. Location tbc, but most likely Vantaa. I can promise good food and open discussions with Loyalty and Customer Experience colleagues. Event is limited to 20 participants.
@lkrt promised to turn this thread into a wiki, so once this happens pls add your name. I would then need your email addresses and FFP numbers PMd to send the official invitation.

I'd be happy to coordinate! I've been an AA FF since 1955. Still have the Sky Cradle Certificate from my first AA flight!

Quite an impressive career! What would it take to make something like this happen? I would be happy to jump in as well.

There is a bit of a difference with the OP's message and Doug's event. The OP's message was actually showing interest in a group (FT) while Doug's was a CK-oriented event.

I think there are huge differences in scale between the airlines. 20 top level flyers for an AA event comparable to the AY event would be such a tiny drop in the bucket, and something in scale would probably be involving thousands.
AA does focus groups, and there are events FFs participate in where they mingle with AA executive and management staff. Sky Ball may be one of those; a number if CK and EP are involved in Sky Ball, though I’m not aware of any frim FT.
I’ll bet there’s not a FT member who would qualify, anyway.
