FlyerTalk Forums Expert How-Tos and Guides
Last edit by: simonsmith
Important reminder: please do NOT post guest offers or requests


Recap of the posting guidelines
1) Use this thread to mention you will be travelling through an airport such as LHR T5 on a given time and date. You can also mention non airport locations if you wish. A brief sentence or two will do, but please use this wiki format:
5-MAY-2019 / 17:00-19:00 / LHR T5 / FlyerTalk username / Maybe late arriving due to connections
2) Do NOT mention lounge guesting, hosting or requesting in the wiki or thread. Just say you'll be (e.g.) at T5. In a change to the rules for 2020, you may also mention the lounge you are planning on visiting, but again please do not post guest offers or requests. It will be assumed you are airside unless you say otherwise.

3) Edit the wiki entry if you can, but if you cannot edit it one of the many volunteers here will happily do it for you, just post your information below in the above format, be sure to include date, time and location. You can edit wikis after 90 days and 90 posts.

4) Use Private Messages to fix arrangements and rendez-vous location. One PM to the person mentioned in the wiki only, please, no repeats and definitely no hassling. If you don't get a reply, then that's life, not everyone has the time to attend to FT matters immediately, so try a PM to someone else instead.

Feel free to edit your own entry directly here, or post in the thread below instead and someone will assist. You need 90 posts and 90 days membership before you can edit the wiki.

Good evening from Carcassonne! I have to concur - really enjoyed our lounge meetup. My flight was fine and I was into the hire car in record time for the drive south. Hope your flight worked too.

For any lurkers reading this thread and wondering whether to dip their toe in - please take the plunge. I have met such an interesting cross section of FTer’s through this - we are a very sociable and diverse community, in this new decade I think getting back to face to face communication is really important.

Apologies for going a little off topic.

I wholeheartedly agree.

I met up with two FTers separately last week in T5 and thoroughly enjoyed the experiences - it adds another dimension to the discussions here when you see their names pop up. I'd been in contact with one during a TP run last year but didn't meet face to face for various reasons; the other was a stranger to me beforehand, but we had a fascinating conversation!

A couple of flights added to the wiki;

03-FEB-2020 / 09:00-09:30 / GLA Galleries/ Vinotraveller
03-FEB-2020 / 18:00-19:00 / LGW S GF/ Vinotraveller

Have also cleaned up the wiki by adding in the normal date spacings and removed all references to airside as per the new 2020 rules.

Wiki updated to this point. Safe travels everyone.

Looks like I'll unfortunately miss two others at T5 the same day but maybe schedules will change!

Due to unforseen events I am currently "stranded" airside at Hong Kong airport for the next 11 hours. To pass the time we are trying out the various lounges. Happy to meet up with anybody here until the BA flights tonight.
