AA finally extended their sale fares for NRT into January ($617 plus tax from SFO--a little higher than the $549 fare running until December, but a lot less than the $1000 that was the fare yesterday), so I booked that today to go along with my award ticket NRT-SIN-NRT. I'll be spending four nights in Tokyo, two before the SIN DO, and two after. Upgrades cleared one way, and I'm waitlisted on the return.

Thank you, 9V-JKL, for bringing this to my attention. 200 SGD is much more reasonable. So I've decided to book the Conrad again. :)

Well, sorry to say this but while you're doing that update go ahead and pull me off the list. It doesn't look like I'll be making it to SIN in January this year, possibly February but January isn't going to happen. Have fun everyone.

Tax Dude Nov 18, 2005 9:54 am

As long as you're updating the list, here's my itinerary:

1/12 YYZ-HKG AC15
1/13 HKG-SIN SQ865
1/16 SIN-HGK SQ860
1/17 HKG-YYZ AC16

And I'll be travelling with a soon-to-be-newly-minted FTer. Um.... Gas Bag! Yeah, that's the ticket. I'll be travelling with Gas Bag.

She's referring to FTers - do you really need to ask? :D

Not all FTers treat the SIN Sheraton pool as a clothing optional environment... but many do. :D

Does the state of inebriation have any impact on the decision making process?

More data is needed to answer this question. :D

This year's SIN Run might be a good opportunity to gather data.

One data point: The Pool Team Duckie never is clothed in the SIN Sheraton pool.

Kiwi Flyer Nov 20, 2005 4:06 pm

If you go then you can be another data point :p

Apparently there was a bit of confusion between the Saturday night pool party and the Sunday night pool party :eek: :D

Of all FTers, you should know the answer to that... :p
