Folks,

This event is a lot more popular than expected. We have filled the now 80 spots by far and have about 30-40 people on the waitlist.

I'm firming up the people who's got a spot, so if you still want to attend, feel free to send me an email and I'll keep you posted on how it looks

Would have wanted to go to the launch party, but will be flying out of town. West Hollywood is just a hop and a skip away.

Any ideas where the MegaDO will be held?

Booking will take place on www.megado.com. If you haven't been to a Mega DO before, read about it here: http://online.wsj.com/article/the_middle_seat.html

Or search in one of the FT master threads.

The facts

- No, you don't have to sign up for the OW Mega DO to attend the launch party

- No, there will be no discounted flights, double EQMs, swags etc for the launch party.

- There will be a room block provided at the Andaz for Friday to Monday for everyone who doesn't ask when it will be available via PM, email or in this thread. (ETA, mid September)

- We are spending a lot of resources building our new website and database @ www.megado.com. You will be able to reserve your spot for the DO at the event. There will be NO deposits, only flat out sales of spots. So save the dates of week 23rd if you plan to attend

- All facts will be available at the launch party

- You can follow the launch live on www.megado.com if you can't attend.

- We will have ONLY 160 seats available on the OW mega DO (161 were available for the SMD3 which was sold out 2 months before the event). First come first served.

- How to RSVP for the launch party: Send me an email to secure your spot. The first 75 that RSVPs to my email, will get a spot. [email protected]. Send me your flyertalk handle, full name and OW status (not FF#, just status level)
