NOT to suggest a competing event, but UA is selling an event at the Daley Plaza Christkindlmarket: https://exclusives.mileageplus.com/L...wntown-Chicago. Starts at 5, so clearly possible to do both.

Wish I could make it but not to be. Today I was told I have to use up vacation time by year-end that I thought I had to use by next May, so am taking a bunch of vacation days the next 2 weeks. So thought maybe I could make this after all - until I looked at the schedule. I'm working so another employee can attend the company holiday party. I'd rather have off & attend this dinner. But the other employee is looking forward to the holiday party, so not going to ask her to switch w/ me. Have fun everyone! Post pictures!

Cheers.

My +1 is not feeling well, and is therefore dropping out. But, I am still planning to attend.

Thank you for all the updates, see you all later this evening

I'm actually having a quick laser procedure done on my eye later this afternoon, the Dr assured me that all would be fine and I would just walk out (no bandages, drops, anesthesia, etc)

I'm very sorry to not be in Chi to attend tonight, but my next trip won't be until next month. I hope to make it to one of these in the future!

Thank you for organizing dinner tonight. I didn’t eat, but the company was terrific. Until next time!
