If it is not to late to sign up, I think I'm in. Have to confirm plans, but want to come. If okay count me as a definite maybe.

TropicalFlyer Apr 21, 2001 10:11 pm

Okay, DallasFlyer. Will get you on the maybe list. I hope you can make it.

Ok...no excuse except it's late, I'm tired and don't have the energy reading through 107 posts to find the info.

Could someone post a recap of the dates, places etc for me?

Maybe I'll be able to RSVP after all....

There is no "official" FT hotel, although a lot of people will be at the Renaissance, it seems. I was wondering if you would be able to make it all the way up from Seattle. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Looks like I will be staying at the Delta Vancouver Suites... got a good rate of CAD$135/night, and I have an upgrade to Exec Suite certificate that anyone can print from the internet.

Yikes! The strike is still on. Hope this gets resolved before we come up next month (I'll be there on a separate trip on May 3 and will get to see first hand).

The taxi situation isn't as bad as originally thought. I have had virtually no trouble catching one.

The SkyTrain is running...so if anyone is staying out at Hilton Metrotown it is still an option.

I am based in YVR if anyone has specific questions...etc.

I've scoured the travel/tourism websites but am a little confused. Are there any other hotels (Starwood or Hilton) close to the Renaissance and AquaRiver?
