High Flyah-
Thanks for taking the initiative.
Lets see, on Dec 10, I'll be transiting at ORD from GRB on the way back to CLE...celebrating the Packers victory over da Bears! So, what better way to party than in the lair of the Bear. So, if this shindig gets confirmed, I;ll detour and pop by.
Please keep me posted.

The 10th is still on. I'm finalizing details and will be posting a separate thread soon.

Sorry for the confusion guys. The May gathering is separate and the good response this early could mean this will be a big party! Sorry I can't join you guys on the 10th...enjoy!

I have personally met several very nice FTers since I moved to Chicago from Boston three months ago, and was mentioning to iluv2fly that it would be nice to have a friendly gathering before the end of the year.

I wish I could make it, but with UAL's prices for SFO-ORD, and the need to get back early on Tuesday, I don't think I can make it.</font>

Huh? UA is around $202 for 12/8 to 12/11 on SFO-ORD. 'Bout as cheap as it gets. In fact I just booked a sameday return for $182 with a 15% off cert. Which will let me clear 1P by about 53 miles

Leave SFO 12/8 on UA 152, 858, 146 or 136 (these depart 9a, 9.40a, 6.10p and 11.35p).
Leave ORD 12/11 on UA 131, 141, 147 or 155 (these depart noon, 3.10p, 4.44p and 9.25p).
$212.50 on Orbitz, $202.50 on ual.com. These are NOT Internet-only fares, so you can use certificates.
Other flights the same days are more expensive even though ual.com shows them with 9's across the board. I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to go standby on UA 809 (the 8.10a departure) Tuesday morning.
I booked 131 and 146 for 12/15. $182.82 including a trip to the very busy Michigan Avenue CTO to redeem my cert.
