Getting his written commitment is easy...... its the follow through that never comes....

I suggest you start a thread over on the Argentina forums I will jump on that... lets see what (if anything) we can achieve.

Easy, just get Pucci Galore to post that she'll be in Bs As that weekend as she's doing the EZE route and he'll be there in a shot.

Wrt the Marriott it appears that since June it's no longer a Marriott hotel but for the rest of 2013 it's still a partner hotel and you can earn and redeem Marriott Rewards points there.

Who the heck is this Pucci Galore....? Is he/she a Purser on BA....? Seems to be one of the mythical figures on FlyerTalk. I sense there is part of this story that I haven't heard about.... details please...?

Great info. regarding the Plaza, now ex Marriott. I was aware of the Marriott flag going away, but its a very relevant point to note that you can still redeem and get Marriot points for stays... ^

I'm so sorry, but I have to be taken off of the list. I'm not going this year. I had an opportunity for changing careers that I'm taking advantage of, and it's the same time as the COW Do. I'll try to make Cow DO X though.

Hey,

I've longed to make my triumphant return to the Cow DO, but alas I will be on Martha's Vineyard during this time period. Have fun!
