I think focusing on the 2022 event is the way to go. I look forward to seeing everyone there.

Long time inactive but just now starting to get back in the swing. Gaucho, if you're going to do 2022 I would be honored to attend.

A non-FT friend and I have just booked flights for Labor Day weekend, so plan to be there one way or another, but I hope we will be able to have a COW DO this year!

We would love to do the DO again this year. Are there any Covid-19 obstacles? How's award flight availability from the US?

Current COVID restrictions appear to be vaccine and insurance proof. By September, who knows.

Award availability sucks. Premium fares are also pretty bad to awful. There are some published fares for later this year in the sub-$3000 range (other than CM/AV/AM) but they've kept the seat buckets in those published fare classes at a minimum, especially on the domestic tags (such as SFO/DFW, SFO/ATL).
Current COVID restrictions appear to be vaccine and insurance proof. By September, who knows.

I see several P fares on United on select dates for around $2000 And American and United have fares around $800 in Coach around Labor Day R/T

Cow DO 2022 - CANCELLED
Dear All..... just a heads up to all and especially to those that have reached out to me directly/privately, 2022 will not be having an "official" Cow Do event. I have relocated to the USA, and even though I am (very) regularly back in EZE and MDZ, my new home airport is MIA. It is my intention to restart the Cow Do tradition in 2023, but sadly for this year it will be impossible for me to host/organize this event. My sincere apologies - and my thanks in advance for your understanding.
For those FTers that have made plans to visit, please feel free to email / PM me if you need anything, despite me not being there all the time I am 100% business as usual so if there is something I can do/help with please let me know - I will do my best to assist.
Best to all and happy travels !!

Best of luck to you, Alex and welcome to the USA. The Cow Do is the Do I mention most when giving examples of these events to non-FTers. We hope to see you in 2023.
