Is there ever any interest in a regular meetup for local flyertalkers in Anchorage? I enjoy the hobby, but rarely get a chance to talk face to face with other enthusiasts. If you're interested, PM me, and we'll try to set something up. Maybe a meetup at a local brewery (midnight sun, Resolution, King Street, or 49th.

I hope they make it into the Boardroom tonight. Everyone's favoriteL concierge denied them entry upon arrival, even though he has an AC membership and was flying on AA metal.

Wish I could join you guys at the AS Boardroom for the crab fest extravaganza tonight!
I am back in Anchorage this weekend, arriving mid afternoon today - almost exactly 3 years after seeing some of you in 2012. Anyone up for drinks and/or dinner tonight - or possibly some other time this weekend?

Let me know. (sorry for the late notice!)

Yikes!

Thanks Bob W and co. for the great burgers, wine, and company as we talked about the good ole days of air travel (well at least it sort of felt like that) and dealing with bureaucrats and other trials of daily life.

See ya around sometime again - maybe in some magnificent remote corner of Alaska or just back in Anchorage, a beautiful enough place to live by itself.

Echoing the congratulations! May your flights be upgraded, your rooms evermore be suites, and the jet stream always at your back.
