Any DC-based NW Mileage Runners Interested in this?
Let me know if you want to join me on this run.
DCA-PHX Oct. 27-28, on Northwest ~$170 all-in including airfare (4200 eqm), SORRY, free lodging option is gone now.
If anyone wants to meet up for breakfast at DCA somewhere Sat. Oct. 27 - I could do that, too.

Add a possible +1 for me (a traveler but not yet an active member on FT). Will know for certain on Monday.

I'll be there at Arties, though I'll need a ride to Metro afterwards. The Cue bus runs only 1/hour after 8pm.

ps I would say we can totally avoid CUE if you want to call me when you get off Metro but you don't do the cell phone thing. Drop me a line if you know when you'll be at Metro and hopefully I can swing by on the way to the restaurant.
Attendee list is being maintained in POST #250 ... (I'll put a link here eventually)

There aren't too many of us NW flyers here in DC unfortunately (or fortunately, as the UG's go through more often than not). I'm already at 88K NW EQMs so far, so I don't need anymore runs myself, but if you end up booking another one, shoot me PM as I've got a 25/100 cert from an amenity kit that I more than likely won't be using - you're welcome to it if you need it...

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but the wife and I will be at the RC Georgetown 15-17 Sept, and at the Crystal City Hyatt 17-20 if someone wants to meet up for a drink. I'd love to meet some DC based FT'ers...Phil
PS Mods if this isn't appropriate please move. thanks in advance.

I'll be a "game time decision" on the 20th. I'm definitely in town.

waterstrider and I are IN for Artie's on Monday.
headinclouds -- I'll be picking waterstrider up at Vienna Metro just before the event. I'd be happy to give you a ride too (both before and after the event). Let me know.

... glad to have you join.Whoever arrives at Artie's first, please put us down for a table for 8 with the request that it can be expanded if more people show up. Unfortunately Arties doesn't accept reservations and will not sit the party unless everyone is present so we can't ask for the larger table on the chance someone will show
Current list (from post #250):Attendees (8)

FYI: According to its website, Artie's biggest table handles a party of 7, so if there are going to be 8 or more of us, we'll need more than one table.
