I am now confirmed for the Main DO. I arrive from DAC via BKK late on the 18th and depart for DAC in the early evening of the 22d. I'm planning to split my time between the Conrad and the Hilton.

As others have mentioned, I'm looking forward to this opportunity to catch up with folks I've not seen in a while and meet people I've not yet had the pleasure to get to know.

I am officially out. The software system conversion is a nightmare and I need to be around through the process.

I will be in SIN Jan 17-20. My usual hotel, the Fairmont, is undergoing extensive renovations, so I am staying at the Ritz Carlton. Unfortunately, RC SIN does not participate in Marriott rewards program, so I will get no benefits like breakfast or lounge access. I was wondering if someone staying nearby (Conrad, JW, etc) who is alone, might be able to guest me into their hotel lounge. Please PM if it’s not a problem for you. Thx!

How is most everyone getting SIN-BKK?

Was looking at the CX flight, but TR is soo cheap Should I stick with CX? It leaves at 2 PM, which seems a bit early for the DO. Unless lunch is in the lounge
