Also, I am a segment guy, so how many CO segments would I get from the SMD2 charter? Thanks!
We hope you can join us for the charter!^

(AFAIK, only miles (EQMs/RDMs) are being credited, not segments -- but I defer to the expert organizers on this!)

Thanks for the great news! ^
Even those SMD1 participants who don't recognise her by the new handle will know who she is when they see her.

She won't have to sit in a jump seat this time.

Thanks! It would be nice to get segs for this :-: (I assume it would be 2 segments (IAH-PHX, PHX-PAE), but alas, this could be a direct flight in the books....)

Is there a dress code (other than business casual, meaning nice shirt, no jeans) for the FT awards?

Most people dressed up for the Freddies, the FT Award will be no different.

There are a lot of industry executives coming, so I would at least go for business casual.
