dcpatti is chairing the breakout session for "other airlines" (pretty much everything not DL, UA, and AA).
I will be assisting and we will discuss whatever topics the group wants to cover, with probably a mention of a few of the best features of the various programs.
Here are the airlines possibly to be discussed. If anyone can attend the session and contribute opinions/tips on the ones with no name beside them, please PM me or her.
Thanks.

Schedule Update
Wanaflyforless will not be attending this year and we are currently looking for a replacement for him and the Mileage Run segments. I have contacted VJ to see if he is available, but wanted you all to know about this potential change. We'll keep you advised.

Is there a listing of how many slots are still available for each of the sessions so one know which they can and cannot sign up for before they decide to register and attend the event?
Thanks.
Thanks.

particular seminar when the room capacity is full. Gary's Award Booking Seminar is the closest with less than 90 seats available at this time.

The way it appears to me, once a seminar fills up it won't be offered as an option. Not totally sure, since we haven't filled one yet and this is our first year using Eventbrite.
I think you can go all the way through the registration process and back out at the last moment without paying.

I have already registered for the event and paid for it.
I kinda remember the seminars I had selected at that time.
How/Where can I view what individual seminars I had registered for?
Can I modify anything in that selections, now?
Can anyone please enlighten me?
Thanks!

Anyone with a similar question can send me a PM with your first and last names and the email address you used to register. Those are easiest to search in the database.

Lucky9876Coins will be Doing Mileage Runs
Both the day session and the evening hands on. Ben spends his time now booking awards for people and knows his way around a mileage run. At 300 to 400k per year he doesn't miss any tricks.
