As per mjm's e mail, for those who want to meet up in the Hyatt Sat night to share a cab, how about 6:30 in the lobby (in front of the registration desk)???

Was just brought to reality that this trip is coming up very soon by an article in the recent issue of Saveur magazine where they listed Singapore pepper crabs as one of "their" 100 favorite foody things in the world. I love the chili crabs as well.

MAAANNNNNNN I'm getting hungry!

Will be making my way there from the Swisshotel Stamford, but if anyone wishes to share a cab from there.......I'm game.
Otherwise, look forward to seeing all of you at dinner!!

Best wishes.

bseller, join us for pre-dinner drinks at the Conrad at 6pm. The Stamford is an easy walk away. mjm is coming. Mr. and Mrs. goodknight are staying there, as am I. You know my name, so just have them ring me if you need to get access to the executive floor. MikeInSIN, I hope you're reading this - come party with us!

I got curious as to who of us are flying UA 881 on Jan 17 from NRT to SIN. I've checked mjm's website, and expect to see a nice group in the Narita RCC:

mjm
rbernheim
Mr. and Mrs. goodknights
PETEFLYS
bseller
SanDiego1K


I already know mjm and PETEFLYS; I'm looking forward to meeting the rest of you.

SIN runners,

Minor update to the page to incorporate a great suggestion from SanDiego1K that we have the pre-dinner meeting times for taxis/ cocktails shown.

If anybody is having trouble with any of these updates displaying properly in their browser, please e-mail me and I will send you the text via e-mail straight away.

Talk to you all soon,

Mike

Couple of things,

I somehow had a premature senior moment and forgot to add gfowler-ord-1k's name to the webpage. This has now been rectified and I apologize for this slip up. Welcome aboard sir.


PETEFLYS,

When you arrive at the RCC please page either Carol or me, and one of us will come to meet you. I will also leave word at the desk that you are coming if you e-mail me your full name.

It is getting close...................

Mike

Pete, I, too, am waitlisted for my NRT-SIN upgrade. I spoke to a UA agent today who was highly confident that it would clear - but I will feel much better when it does! You have my full sympathy.

See you in NRT.

Looks like I'll be on this flight as well, connecting via UA 837. I just changed my flight this week, so I guess I'll be at the bottom of the upgrade list... And yes, I have been assured by UA reservations that I should clear the upgrade list as they have over 30+ open C seats left on both sectors.
Wonder if we can get UA to put all flyertalkers on the upperdeck

I'm not sure if I'll be able to join the FT dinner, but put me in for the RCC. Anyone else is on UA837 on the 16th?

Hi all! DH and I will be in HKG & SIN around those times, as well. On CO. My 1st time in either place! Sunil, please inform me, if you possibly would; what to expect weather-wise. Also, just how "dressy" is SIN for shopping, touring, etc. Is English going to be understood by cab-drivers, etc.? Unfortunately, my only language. Thanks for any and all info. By the way, how is "high tea" at Raffles? Looking forward to it!

Will you be joining us for dinner/drinks on Sat 1/18? Also which CO flights are you scheduled on? I figured I was the only non UA person in all of SIN
From what I hear, everyone speaks english and dress is casual (due to the humidity/heat/rain). I've been checking weather.com and it looks like mid to high 80's for next week, with 'thunderstorms' expected every day.
