b) are Hyatt Diamond and able to guest someone into the Regency Club (yes/no)
c) are Red Carpet Club members or able to guest people into the RCC by other means (RCC member/foreign Star Gold)

A) No

Looking forward to seeing y'all later this week.

I have you down for the dinner, though are you in for the flight as well?:)

gomike Mar 21, 2011 1:10 pm

a YES $57 bid on priceline. 4* SFO Burlingame
b YES
c YES RCC +2

trainman74 Mar 21, 2011 1:34 pm

a) No
b) No
c) No

I won't be too disappointed if I can't get into the RCC -- my flight from LAX isn't scheduled to arrive until 11:49 A.M. anyway. I'll just hang out at the departure gate so I can get a good seat for Capt. Denny's famous pre-flight briefing. :D

SFOTerry Mar 21, 2011 1:57 pm

Ben: Please add SFOMo and me to the confirmed dinner list. We will not be on UA760, but are taking CO269 SFO-IAH at 12:25am Saturday. We'll probably take a taxi from home to Max's, and hope to take the Hyatt shuttle back to SFO (unless that's not A-OK with Hyatt). So:

a) No
b) No
c) Yes, but we'll be going to the CO Pres club Friday night.

Looking forward to dinner,

- Terry

I figure we can all head over to the SFO RCC at around 10-11AM and have a pre-party. Hopefully we'll also be able to guest anyone that wants access into the Regency Club at the Hyatt for the spread on Friday night and/or breakfast on Saturday.

Happy to hear some more people are able to join us!^ Should be a great time.


Hey, I've volunteered to be bumped off of one of Captain Denny's flights before, so it wouldn't be a first. That being said, unfortunately iluv2bump is joining us, so there goes my chance.:p


billyliu Mar 21, 2011 4:05 pm

1) No
2) No
3) No

Thanks again for coordinating!

lucky9876coins Mar 21, 2011 4:07 pm

Wow, flight is now F9Y0. 11 seats unassigned in first class on the seatmap. Looks like the party will likely be in coach for this trip!

Out of curiosity, how many of you are confirmed in first class so far?

Do you mean to say that you cleared before iluv2fly? ;)

Also, room for one more for dinner? Looks like i have to pick up quite a few bags ;)

SFOTerry Mar 22, 2011 7:50 am

Will anyone else be heading to SFO for a flight after dinner?

Not sure if we will be able to jump on either the Hyatt or Crowne Plaza shuttles without having been a guest. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Would like to have party with party animals.

I think I'm out of the running for a UDU as iirc, I bought a lower fare class than most.

I'd be amused to see it go to the gate & watch the GAs as one FTer after the other rejects the offered UG :p

The hovering for the bump may be more comical :D

This will be the first flight that we are not asking for bump :D

Oh, good. Two less people for me to fight. ;)

gomike Mar 22, 2011 10:09 am

OK 100 hour mark has passed, which 1ks have cleared?

lucky9876coins Mar 22, 2011 12:52 pm

Two things...
 
First of all, Captain Denny has asked us to dress up a bit for the flight, as we did in the past for the group flight. He provides service back from the "good old days," so I think it's only fair we reciprocate the same respect people treated flying with back in the good old days. Of course it's optional, but if you can, by all means do. I know I'll be wearing a suit, though that's not to say anyone else has to!

Second, it looks like the festivities might start a bit earlier on Saturday morning at SFO. Stay tuned for details on that, hopefully by this evening.

Pat89339 Mar 22, 2011 1:24 pm

Should we dress up for dinner as well?

FriendlySkies Mar 22, 2011 2:23 pm

A question to everybody on the flight.. How many are in F and how many are in E+?

Hmm.. Wish I had known about this last week. I've been gone from Lawrence since Thursday, and did not bring any dressy clothing with me.. I do have my Hawaiian shirt.

Not especially, though clothing is required. ;)

I can track this in the OP. I'm in coach. Did your CR1 end up clearing? If I'm not mistaken, iluv2fly, chrisw, and waterstrider are in F so far.

jmd001 Mar 22, 2011 2:33 pm

Lucky--

I'm in E+ ... with no expectation (or plans) for upgrading.

Upgrade cleared. Sounds like I may have wanted to stay in E+. I hope there are still activities for us in F, even if most people are in E+..

You might be able to have them put you back in E+ or you could just swap seats with someone in the back.
