and also the Holiday Inn Express...

I'm meeting most (all?) of you for the first time in PHX... so I hope you're all as *fun* as you make out!
Welcome. And no, we are all cantankerous old gits who will spend the whol time moaning. No fun allowed!

Seeing your post, I too decided to book 2nd March out & 3rd March back.

Definitely! Starting at the Cathay lounge with some Breakfast, followed by several G&T's at the QF lounge.

For all of you who think you can hijack this thread and create your own micro-do before the actual true mini-do can I suggest you start your own thread and not clog up this one. Shows a total lack of respect! I feel as if you have all jumped on the bandwagon. Poor KARFA will be most disappointed with the way you have usurped his quiet weekend trip to GIB towards the end of March. I would never dream of such dastardly actions.

Alternatively (and this is what I would do) is add the details of those travelling on the mini-do at the bottom of the wiki so you all know what is happening!

Safe travels everybody!

Apologies, @madfish, good point!
Details updated below the main WIKI details (I also realised that my party is 4 not 2 for the first trip.)

I was wondering if the BA Socials can be 'stickied' - I always seem to stumble on them, Or is there a list of all the socials on another thread?

I try to avoid sticky socials at my age. It's not dignified.
