The FIRST annual One World Mega DO! Post your ideas here
Greetings,
As you all probably know, my crew and I have pulled of two very successful Star Alliance Mega DOs and sold out the third over two months before the event this September.
Well, many of you might not fly Star Alliance, many also belong to other alliances and fly other airlines. So I've gotten many questions. "when the heck are you going to do one of these for us AA flyers?"
For a long time, Pizza has been busting my hump about this (he's on the AA cool aid and busts my hump all the time anyways, I usually don't listen), but when my friend Maya Leibman asks me: "where's my mega DO???" I don't have any choice, do I?
So come this January, the FIRST annual One World Mega DO will take place!
What is a Mega DO?
It's an action filled couple of days where frequent travelers get to meet the programs they belong to, get very exclusive inside tours and do things not open to anyone.
Hundreds of you have asked if you could help. And now you can!
Please share your ideas what YOU think that we should do @ the OW Mega DO
Thank you!

In the winter???
I say we head over to JAL and then to HKG to visit Cathay!!!
Whoo-hoo!
I'd say down under for Qantas but it'll be too hot there in January...

It would be sweet to get Starwood involved as well.

JL & CX are musts due to their prominence. Or IB & BA.

If we use a BA flight, will there be a surcharge?

If you really want to go "over the top", Finnair goes to Singapore as well .

Stops at NRT, HKG? Seems like a clear winner and avoid the fees of going anywhere near the UK.
