I went there many years ago with eastwest and remember it as having the BEST salmon...
You've been added to the wiki. Wish I could join, but I won't be back for another two weeks. Have fun!

I just booked for tomorrow (8/16) returning 8/17: IAD-SFO-ANC-IAH-DCA. I'm staying at the Sheraton on points. Not sure if I'll keep the flights or if I'll standby on an immediate return. I've been to Anchorage before and liked it, so assuming I have no issues with work tomorrow, seems like a nice quick trip.

Could be down for lunch on Saturday.

Happy to help! It is a self-edit wiki, though, so I'd encourage everyone coming to keep things up-to-date on their own. (Less work for me. )

Cool! Give me a count and I will make reservation! Are you renting a car? We are renting one, so can help with rides, but may not have a lot of room for luggage... (I pack heavy for cruising)

If the flight gets in early its worth a stop- plus the B gates are close enough to the AS BR (Near C1)

Going to miss you by 24 hours... I'll be somewhere over SE Asia by then

We met for a few brief moments in the ANC Bored Room. I had co-workers with me who found absolutely nothing strange about me bringing a complete stranger into our group.

Glad we could meet up, if only briefly.

It was a good event, albeit a quick one as BOB W had to catch a flight. I'll be back for a day next month, six hours in October, and I think the rest of my trips are quick turns. I'm in SIN so I won't be checking now though, will check when I make it back to the States.
