Cool. Join in!

To update everyone, I will be arriving at about 1PM. Some of you PM'd me about meeting up earlier - I will get back to you tomorrow.
I leave at 3:30PM Sunday, and there are some of you who wanted to meet up Sunday, so that should work out also.

I will see y'all there!

Currently in the KLM lounge in AMS waiting for KL1363 to WAW. I didn't think the lounge would be so busy before 8 am. I think many people have said it already, but it is quite cold in Europe now!

@craz - Thanks for the heads up about duty free notice in CDG. I was going to purchase liquor in WAW on the return flight back to JFK. I guess I won't.

I don't have status with ST so I can't use any lounges. Intl terminal in YUL is boring.

Just got to gate D85 for the WAW flight (don't feel like finding the lounge for <1hr). KissFlyGodbye, are you planning on taking the Green Bus from the airport?

Had a question for Duty Free purchaces: If JFK has cheap DF liquor, and our last stop is JFK, can we still purchase DF because we have concluded an international itinerary that day or does it have to be before conclusion of travel?

I apologize that I'm replying to you a little bit too late. I did not see your post until I checked into the hotel. I'm staying at the Sofitel and the Green bus doesn't quite go there. I just decided to use the taxi service the hotel recommended. Hope you had made it fine.

The gate change in AMS totally screwed everything up for me. The gate was originally at C09. I got to C09 and wen't through priority boarding only to find the gate agent telling me my gate has changed. I totally only had 25 minutes to go from C09 to D85!

I believe you can't purchase from DF in JFK if thats your last stop on your itinerary. My mother wanted to do that from NRT to JFK years ago (we ended at JFK, but the DF sales wouldn't allow the purchase), but I do not know if they changed that policy. I think you can only purchase DF before your itinerary ends.

No worries, when I got to the exit the green bus was going to be 1hr so I took the 175 bus to the Westin, will take taxi back on Sunday. Yes I got luck I checked the monitors right when I landed otherwise I'd have had an even longer walk. I think ill try to buy my scotch at Toronto in that case since I have an overnight there anyways. Anyone know if YYZ DF prices are good?

I'm sitting in the DL SC at JFK, have 3 hours until departure to YUL, then AMS, long day still ahead, I'm beat already, but plenty of time to sleep on the plane.

If anyone's in the airport Sunday, I'm arriving on AF2346 and departing on KL1366. I'll have a black backpack with FT luggage tags.

You were quite a good host / guide to all of us visiting. Thank you so much for the hospitality.
