I have a reservation at the Sheraton Singapore Towers for 1/13-15 that i won't be needing. If anyone is interested please let me know before I cancel. Last time I checked the only thing available was towers suites and what I think are cabana rooms.

Hi...We'll be at the Ritz-Carlton from the 12th-14th. We're arriving at 1:30am (Yawn!) on the 12th, and leaving at 5:40 pm (I think) on the 15th. ...But we're on the left coast.
From the funky little map I have, it looks as if the Conrad is walking distance. Is it REALLY?

I will be carrying a big black backpack with a yellow FT tag, here is my pic. The upgrade for SFO-NRT cleared this morning but the other 3 segments look bad. I guess that is good news for UA.

I'll be at the NRT RCC a little after 4 p.m. (hopefully) on 12 Jan. Hope to see you there or over at the SQ lounge. I have a yellow FT tag on my backpack as well.

I should be there by 8pm on the 12th (KE from ICN/SIN willing...) Please email me (Please DON'T pm me).....I am planning to have a glass of wine or a cup of coffee with Monitor and Franny shortly after I arrive so it would be nice to meet you too! Perhaps you all might wish to contact one another prior to my arrival? I know the Monitors and they are fab company! They are staying at the Marriott....
I am readying myself for the 43 hour trip ahead of me starting 1000EST tomorrow....

I guess I will miss everyone. I arrive in SIN on 1/15 (actually 1/16). Depart afternoon of 1/16 for KUL on SQ in F. Return on Friday on MH in F. Looking forward to the lounges.
Will do some luxury bed runs in KUL.
Flying into SIN on NW. Anyone know why the NW flights are full to/from SIN? All the FlyerTalkers?

Don't think I'll stop by the RCC.EdisonCarter is arriving on Wednesday morning in SFO and is on your flight to NRT. I'm on UA 869 SFO-HKG, connecting onto UA 895 HKG-SIN.

dedehans...Thanks for the help. I sent you an email. 4 inch Manolos? I would break a leg for sure. I get altitude sickness when I'm on the ground. LOL!
I would love to meet Monitor & Franny, too, but I don't know how to contact them. I got so excited, I checked into Singapore A/L today, and screwed it up so bad. I changed Philip's seat, but I couldn't go back and change mine. Now we have to wait 'til we get to the airport, and hope we can sit together. Life is just one challenge after another.... (for me, at least)

Unfortunately, we are still waitlisted for business on all of our flights and the NRT/SIN leg isn't looking too good right now. First is wide open so there is a chance that maybe some business seats will open up when folks start getting upgraded into first or, we may have our first experience at international coach.

I will say a prayer for your upgrades. Hopefully at least the SEA-NRT segment has now cleared. I only make one transpacific flight a year. Is C and Y always this full on UA?

Well, now that I'm here in Singapore, but far from settled, I've realized that the constraints on my time have already started, and how.
So, I'm going to have to drop off the list for at least:
Friday night munch
Saturday night dinner
as I have definite commitments for those times.
I'm going to try to make the stuff on Sunday, but there's a good possibility I will be swamped with work by then. I thought things would start off a little slower, but, well, no. I guess this drops me from a "confirmed" to a "maybe" for Sunday.
