THmm sounds like CDKing will be in town for a bit in Feb- just an hour or what? If its the 3rd I'm on AS132
Sorry its 2/11 but i may be in PDX on 2/4 depending on the weather. I double booked myself 2/4-5 on UA and AS.
Ah ok- looks like I'll be skipping across the lower 48 on those dates between RDU & ORD... But will prob be in ORD by the 10th IIRC

OK, I'm back. What do you want to do? Looks like I am free anytime except Tuesday night and Friday. Moose's Tooth get together or something more exotic? I'll bring the wife too.

I'm open any night and have two Groupons to Sub Zero.

And, my place is open for NYE.

I'm flying out tonight and will be back Tuesday. I work Wednesday through Saturday nights (although could conceivably leave work on Wednesday).

Regardless, I'll see you on NYE, right?

Let's shoot for Wed. if you can. Looks like I need to head back to HNL on the 27th. If not Wed., then on the 26th.

It looks like a mileage run may bring me to lovely ANC for a few hours on Friday evening. (Unfortunately I already have New Year's plans so I won't be able to extend the stay to make it to the DO Saturday night...)

Would anyone like to get together for a beer/dinner sometime Friday night?

ETA: If no one's around I could instead book the 5PM return and get home 9 hours earlier So either way could work out well.

I'm here. Unfortunately, I'm also working. If it's slow enough (which it should be), I could probably peel away from work long enough for an Alaskan Amber in the airport somewhere. Can't really leave the airport, though.

Be good to see you again!

It would be! I just got clearance to take Friday off (and work the new year's holiday on Monday instead), so the final holdup I had to booking this is now gone.

(1K, here I come!)

I'll let you know once my plans are finalized so we can figure out how to best meet up.

Congrats on 1K. Wish I could accomplish that.

PM for my # if you don't still have it.

Oh, don't worry, I looked at going to the islands for my MR as well. Oddly enough, fares were considerably cheaper to ANC

I hope you're enjoying it, though! We'll catch up next time.

Anyone else who may be around - it seems that jackal and I will be attempting to meet up for a brew at ANC sometime between 4 and 11pm tomorrow night. Anyone else who isn't around but is looking for that extra special MR destination to squeeze in those last few EQM this year, take a look at ANC!

Happy New Year from the ANC FlyerTalk clan! Wishing you were all here in our 2-degree weather!

-AKronin +1, Jazon256, BOB W, ANC RED-EYE, and jackal



BOB W's famous Boeuf Bourguignon a la Julia Child and AKronin's famous raspberry spinach salad with balsamic:



In Alaska, Cava gets colder the longer you wait to enjoy it. That doesn't happen in Spain:

For most of us normal humans, one would think that the boeuf bourgingon can just as well be there in the springtime or summer.

2-degrees indeed.
