Expert Flyer/MR Planner DO?
 

I just attended the Chicago October DO and learned enough to be dangerous, but still not confident that I understand the possibilities that are out there with ExpertFlyer (I'm now a subscriber) to book a great mileage run.

So far, I've found a few things with it, but nothing that puts me in the wanaflyforless category. I would really love to harness the power of this tool and figure out the strategies. Anyone else interested in an in-depth training/ strategy session on this topic?

I suspect that there would be numerous folks interested...however they are waiting to see if connections are made with knowledgeable people to present the information. Don't know if someone frm EF would be interested in giving an 'advanced seminar' or someone else feels encouraged to volunteer.

I have submitted a request to the folks at ExpertFlyer. If they bite, then I'll talk to some of the FT folks to see if we can get some civilians to teach us how they use it as well. I think this could be of interest to a lot of people in the MR forum if we can make it a go.

I would love to attend such a session. I already subscribed to ExpertFlyer before the DO, but never used it for the milage run possibilities. Ideally it could be a small enough session to actually cover real-world examples people are interested in.

We appreciate the thought and while we are happy to support such a forum, and perhaps participate in one with a seminar on EF and its features and how they might be applicable to MRs, we don't consider ourselves experts on the subtleties and tactics of mileage runs and the various resources available. There are others in FT who are far more qualified than us, such as those who have recently run great MR seminars.

lets not let this just going no where - any suggestions?
