Ken...make that shadow only, Jackie cannot make it this trip.

To anyone who is interested, my DL flight arrives in SEA at 3:48pm, barring any delays.
If no one else is coming in around that same time, I'll get myself to the Westin. Should be there between 4:30-5:00pm.

Actually, I'm staying at the W thru Thursday, and then over to my brother-in-law's over in Magnolia. Joanne arrives Thursday.

Count me in! I just booked my flights and a hotel for Saturday night.

I couldn't resist the chance to finally meet Newself (who owes me one - http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum20/HTML/000794.html - and Shadow, Tropical Flyer, Kyklin (and Michelle) and MileageAddict after all these months of reading their posts. It will be great to see so many dear friends, and meet some great new folks, too.

I decided to rent a car. I'm arriving on AS at 2:15 PM Saturday, departing at 1:30 PM Sunday. If anyone needs a ride to downtown Seattle from SeaTac or the return, and your times are close to mine, please let me know via e-mail.

What a great get-together! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/cool.gif I'm really sorry I can't attend (and after being pulled off of the SFO gathering, too).

I feel soooooooo sad!

Punki,
I'm a new member and work downtown Seattle. Please let me know if I can be of assistance with car pooling etc. I'm hoping to make the Wild Ginger.

OK, newself owes you one, I owe newself one, let's cut out the middle man (or, woman), and I'll buy you a drink! Ooooohhh, I can hear newself complaining now!) http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

And of course, it just so happens that I owe TravelWeary one, too...now we have an infinite loop going. Could make for a fun time!

Just make this weekend a bona fide FT gathering, I propose we have a swap meet for soon-to-expire upgrades, discount certs, hotel and rental certs, drink chits, lounge passes. For example, I have two UA confirmable upgrades that expire within six weeks and would love to trade them for ones that expire later in the year. Anyone else up for this?

dgolds, glad to hear you'll be joining us. Looking forward to finally meeting you. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

essxjay, sounds like a plan! I'll bring my envelope of goodies...

Way cool idea Ess. I even believe we should trade same expiration date coupons, just to keep them on their toes. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Punki writes from SFO.

Did I hear someone say drinks? DGolds, who owes who? Just imagine that we have to go all the way to Seattle to finally meet. But it will be worth it as TravelWeary has this unlimited drink budget for the both of us!

Hey acting Commander Catcop? Do I owe you drinks or do you owe me??/

For Friday, I guess someone can take that job since i"ll be on my BIG SECRET TRIP!!! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
