I will print mine. If there is a delay I will be dashing to the gate. You can always ask for a new boarding pass.

Happy to know it's not me. Let's hope the flight isn't cancelled or anything.

So I called...and was told that the FlyerTalkers on this flight will not be able to use on-line check in. We should check in at the British Airways counter. My seat selection from earlier in the week was still there.

If anyone speaks French you may be able to get more information. You are speaking to someone in France--I could tell because he pronounced my last name properly.

YES, I was told the same. Seat assignment is fine, but there is a glitch with regard to OLCI for those who received the FlyerTalk seats.

Great to know about the check-in problem.... thought it was me... naturally my first instinct was to check on here.

Lucky, sorry for the delay, but have been on the road for the past day and a half. Please count me in for the dinner on Friday +1 guest.... a local who can help us with any translation issues

Thanks and looking forward to meeting all.

Can't wait, this should be fun! Wonder why FT group can't check in. Maybe they want to give us special stuff?

I'll be printing out the first four posts tonight just to keep track of the list of weekend activities, and look forward to meeting old peeps and making some new friends!

I was only able to confirm 2 tables and it was like pulling teeth. The resturant is sold out.This morning they offered me only one table. I had to speak to the manager having dealt with him before,to override the second table.He told me there will be no other tables forthcoming no amount of French Canadian charm will work
The attendees show 9. I do not know if that is updated. I know there were couple who posted earlier confirming Friday.Send Lucky a PM.

By my count we're up to 13. Looks like we might be accepting VDB's.

In all honesty, I doubt one over will be a problem.

Lucky, check the Friday Dinner. I think there were some posters late last night or early today who posted confirmation for Friday dinner. I was up at 3:30AM to finish off my work.And I checked before I called Paris at 6:00AM to speak with manager. I thought I counted 12. Which is why I tried to get the second table.
