Yes, this CO Platinum is going ;)

OK, now I won't feel like such an outcast.

Count me in!

Glad I live in the south part of the metro...I'd hate to have to deal with the convention traffic.

Just be ready to status match after Wednesday....:p

If UA had a late IAH-DEN flight I'd consider it. I won't even bring up the upgrade thing...

oops

Google maps tells me about half an hour to/from the airport. Is that about right?

Thanks! I guess I have to be at the airport around 9PM so I should stick around till about 8:30?

IMHO, I would allow for 45 minutes to get to the airport if there are any delays or slowdowns on I-225.

While I would love to join you folks, alas I won't be able to as I'm stuck on the west coast until Friday morning.

Hopefully another opportunity will present itself soon.

Sadly, the one flight I've had with Capt. Flanagan I was mostly asleep for. It was a SFO-EWR flight in Dec after I hadn't slept all night and a day before I went to Tokyo and Guam. I do remember the wine bottle game in the midst of my sleep and i missed out on the 757 cards as I boarded late due to a delayed inbound.

Cheers!

I'm going to do my best to arrive around 6pm for a pre-dinner drink.

I'll be in early too... I'm working very nearby in one of those ugly Tech Center buildings.

You'll recognize me, by the yellow FT luggage tag I'll be wearing on my jacket.

Hahahahahaha.... NOT! :D

I will be early as well (probably 430ish because I'm getting on an earlier flight to stop by a client to get work to pay for this schabang :D)

Look for a guy with a "Glenn must GO!" bracelet at the bar (I wish I had one) :D

I'll probably get there a bit early as well. Look for the guy wearing the Gordon Bethune mask.

Sounds like I'll be bailing from work and arriving early as well. ^^^

I'll make it to DEN by either 1:06PM or 3:10PM, flying in from MSP.

So sad I'll be missing this. Please say hi to the Captain from me and someone please bring a camera and post pics!^

I've got a 1K friend attending with me (not computer literate enough to really enjoy FlyerTalk), his name is Jack
