OK, flights planned, ½ booked - but that's a formality.

Count me in

msvacation + 1 just sent me a PM signing up for the tour.

The current total so far is 48 + 2 (Randy?) + KathyWdrf (?).

As of this posting, the BRT is oversold by 1.
If you're playing the percentages, a few of you will drop out due to various reasons. My guess is that I can fit a few additional riders.

Anyone signing up now will be waitlisted.

Hoping and praying that your hand will be forced.

Please add me to BRT waitlist – barring any last minute emergencies, I hope to be able to attend this year.

Why don’t you just oversell, and then give those denied boarding a front seat, a morning bagel, and an afternoon slice for the 11th annual BRT.

Maybe I should. Based on the percentages, there's always 1 or 2 people that drop out at the last minute... after they've paid.

Did you say 11th? Jailer, I'd lose all credibility around here if 2011 came to be.

First reminder...

The BRT always pushes back on time at 10:00am. This is mandated by the FAA, in keeping with Flyertalk rules and regulations. Failure to push back on time at 10:00 will result in the OPs getting a ride in Randys van.

On a more serious note, I left one of my oldest Flyertalk friends behind several years ago. If I can leave Catman behind, I'll leave you too.
Directions will be provided. On time departure became a formality after Spiff and MileageAddict came late. Y'all can blame those southern boys.

Over the years, we've stopped, and will continue to stop for pizza at L&B.

A friend pointed me in ths direction.
Take a look at the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ocs79...&p=PE4324wbYK8

New riders to the tour are in for a treat. Making me hungry just thinking about it.

Last Brooklyn tour

Since this is the last one, I really have to get it together now, I guess. Put me on the waitlist, Dan.

Downunder Girl + Mini DG just went to the maybe category.

This means the first 2 names on the waitlist can move up to confirmed. Please advise. If I don't hear from JerseyVics and SHF within a week, I'll move down the waitlist.

Thanks for saving me a seat, Dan! I'm pretty certain I'll be there!

Ah ok. I wasnt sure if I could or couldnt make it, but I guess if you have a waitlist, nothing to be done now. I wasnt quite ready to completely relinquish our positions just yet. I was only coming to NYC for this event

The ridiculous UA fares ex SYD right now wasnt making it easy.
