Advanced searching.
My bot is out here on the Internet looking for a cheap airfare from ORD-YVR. The cheap(er) days seem to be Wednesday, 12 Sep. - to Monday, 17 Sep.
Flights connecting in SEA are also on the dias. But I ponder how much time it would take to go through U.S. Customs in SEA returning from YVR.
Put me on the 'interested' roster.

I still have to figure out some things - but for a start I have booked a oneway business class ticket from NUE to YVR for Friday Sep 14 and three award nights at the holiday inn city centre.

Defintely interested if I am in town. Looking forward to putting faces to handles (I’m talking to you, Beckoa as I have yet to make it to an Alaska do 
). Will confirm 100% as it gets closer and I know where I’ll be.

Return trip also booked from LAX on Saturday Sep 22. So some post-DO activities need to be organized on the way to LAX.

Missed this due to a fixation on the AC FT forum. Thanks @TCook52 for cross-posting this.
Given that...
a) I live about 5 minutes away from the OP
b) I missed the YYJ Do 'cause of a work commitment
c) I've enjoyed the two mini-Dos I've been to
... so I'm in.
