At this point, there are two possible transfers for NYC this weekend. I think FT Junior might be free later in March. I'll post the details once I get the transfer worked out or if the plans fall through.
Having been the keeper of both Freddie Jr. and FT Junior a few times, my preference is to keep them moving as much as possible and to avoid using FedEx/USPS for transport.

16 Feb UA907 ORD-SFO (767-300) Business Class Seat 6K Window
16 Feb UA6270 SFO-ONT (CRJ-200) Economy Class Seat 8B Aisle
18 Feb UA82 LAX-JFK (757-200) Business Class Seat 9A Window
FT Junior enjoyed his SSSS patdowns from ORD and LAX TSA and survived travelling in the overhead of a CRJ sardine can.

He's sitting on my counter right now having successfully been transferred this weekend. He seems a bit upset that he missed the JFK-IAD-DKR-JNB-MRU-JNB-DKR-JFK trip I did last week but when I explained it was in Y he got over it.
If anyone in NYC wants to take him for a ride let me know. I actually don't have much travel planned for the next couple weeks.

After a stressful night being groped by various people at the FT Award ceremony FT jr decided to fly east on Friday and joined me in style on LH411 to MUC in F (he was supposed to be on an A380 (LH 401) but we got bumped and op-upped)

Oliver I'll try to catch up with him sometime soon. It's good to know he's in safe hands. (there's some of those good Aussie cookies for your Missus in this for you).
So sorry to have missed it all.

You know I have a special affection for FT Jr after being his companion at FT Awards 2010 & protecting him from the aformentioned groping last year. I had thought to hold him safe again this year but missed my flight ( don't want to talk about it).

12 MAY
Innovating with a certain large airline:
Lunch:
Some lucky dudes he happened to meet at FRA Airport:
Great view from the Kfer, at one point we had 9 *A carriers in view:
Parting moments with the guy who carried him around the past two weeks:
He is currently (13MAY) crossing the Atlantic with a New Yorker he met in FRA.

So can we get FT jnr to OzFest? There are a few folk coming over from the US, in particular from the East Coast.
I see in a post above Serfty mentions someone getting him from NYC for the BRT & then the 1st Prague DO.
How about we get him from NYC to OzFest, then back for the BRT & then Prague?
