What do you guys like to drink? I'll bring whatever you like, since I'm a university student, and thus incredibly flexible in that regard...

Let me know within a week or so on whether you know if you guys are going to be around as I'm going to be attempting to book a oneworld award that encompasses both Bali and Germany with points in between.

Perhaps we will try again in conjunction with the London DO in November and Jerrie will be able to travel at that time also.

. I would; however, advise you to buy your stuff here at the airport's Duty Free. Once you clear customs, there is a small Duty Free section by the baggage claim area. I think prices here might be a bit cheaper than Europe.

Which are the "requirements" for my guest?
Hmmm, I have several options:
more the kind of: absolutely stunningly gorgeous
or
more the kind of: absolutely dirty minded with good humor?
I know you would like the combination of both charcteristics....let me think...

Most 'murricans get out of work early on Wednesday and many have Friday off as well. Which makes this a very good weekend to travel.

4th Thursday in November
We are debating York or BEY as an add-on for the London DO. Probably contingent on whether RJ is in oneworld with enough time to plan. But IIRC you guys are there for 5 years so we still have time to wait for RJ @:-)
