Dinner is shaping up quite nicely! The OP should be updated. Do any of the "maybes" have an update about their status?

If anyone else wants to join us, there's still room.

Thanks!

I have to cancel. Just lost my job and so I am in extreme money saving mode now.

Sorry we won't get to see you. Losing your job is never easy, I went through that experience earlier this year. I see we're in the same area, PM me if I can be of any help.

Looking forward to it!

The list keeps getting better and better. It looks like we now have a third United pilot, Captain Dan, joining us for dinner. Had lunch with him and Captain Denny in Tampa last week, so it'll be great to see them again. And of course to see Captain John again!

The +1 is me. Long time lurker, most of my way to figuring out all the FF acronyms.

Just booked hotel room. Staying at Springhill Suites ORD, which was the 'overflow' hotel for the ORD Sem Do. SweetWillie has said he'll give me a ride to/from the dinner since I'm thinking of doing the public transit thing instead of driving.

Cheers.

And we have a fourth United pilot joining us -- Captain Dave, who is the president of the Captain Jason Dahl Scholarship foundation.

Can't wait to meet everyone tomorrow!

not confirmed yet

I'm not a confirmed yet. It all depends on the random generation of my day to day schedule. Hope to be there, but even at that it will be more around 800 than 730 - just b/c of the flight schedule.
