Update 11/08

Well this thread might be moot:

See this - http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showt...151post4842151





*** A fellow FTer, SchmutzigMSP ( ^ for the mileage run seminar signup prgram, BTW), has been kind enough to write a very nice, user-friendly program for just this thing at http://publicbackup.com/shared/flyertalk/hilton/

Unfortunately, I won't now be joining you . Expedia told me today I can go F*** myself!

You can follow the ongoing saga at http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?p=4837341 and Thread closed, now continued here: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showt...9&page=1&pp=15)
hopefully YOU won't end up in the same boat!

But I'll keep updating THIS list as long as there's folks still posting to it..... but SchmutzigMSP's is probaly better.

Have fun y'all *****

...btw, here's a thread for suggestions on obtaining reasonable airfare:

I know alot of us jumped on that $2/$3 deal at the Hilton Tokyo and in Osaka.... and at any one time there will probably be at least a couple rooms of us FTer's there.

If it pans out, perhaps it'd be fun to start a list of who's going to which and when. Then we could arrange a meet-up via pm or something.

I'm booked at:

Hilton Osaka
6/10/06 to 6/16/06
and
9/23/06 to 9/29/06

I'd love to trade one of these weeks for a week at the Hilton Tokyo. I was an exchange student to Osaka when I was younger, but never actually made it to Tokyo.

I'll be in Osaka from Sept. 1-8 but I'm probably going to add a 6 night Diamond stay at the Hilton in Toyko either before or after - might as well...I'll be in the neighborhood, so to speak.

Hilton Tokyo
Dec 28-Jan 4
March 15-23
May 16-25

I'd be willing to trade the Dec or March for gifted status on UA. Transport from BNA to lon or GLA those march dates. Or anything else. PM away. Or I'll just cancel them, as they will no longer fit in my schedule, at least not right now. Anyway, hope to see someone in the top floors in May.

Hilton Tokyo 2/25 - 2/26 (on my way home from BKK)
Hilton Tokyo 9/3 - 9/11

November 29-Dec. 8

I will be in Osaka 03/31/06-4/11/06
I will be in Tokyo either before of after that but haven't confirmed plans yet.

Nomad, thanks for putting the consolidated info in the first post. Very helpful. cheers

I've got Osaka May 7th - 14th. If anyone has a Tokyo that will go unused on either side of those dates please let me know.

Osaka:

July 11 to 18 (booked in two seperate reservations).

Was too late for Tokyo

No worries, mate.

Hope it helps

TOKYO: 1/24 & 1/25 King Executive
OSAKA: 1/26 King Executive
TOKYO: 1/27,1/28,1/29 King Executive

April 2 to 9, 2006.

I was also too late for Tokyo, but I was there 2 years ago so it'll be fun to explore another city this time.

I really hope this deal will go through.

We are booked 2/12 - 2/17 in Osaka. Checked FT before leaving early on Saturday morning for a Cub Scouts fund raiser and Soccer game and when I got back and checked FT again I was too late for Tokyo.

The family has not been to Japan (hubby has) so we want to try add a couple of nights in Tokyo as well, so if anyone has nights they do not plan on using before or after these dates please PM me. Thanks!
