Did Someone Say Highland 'Do?
 
We should plan a 'Do in Glasgow or Edinburgh, perhaps in the fall when rates drop. It's a short hop from here and way shorter for our fellow OnePass'ers living in Europe. How 'bout it? ^

P.S. I'm still waiting for you brown-nosers who "know" Larry to talk the big blowhard into "sponsoring" a 'Do discount rate. :D

I would be up for this. I travel to EDI as often as possible. If I may even be so bold to plug a possible meal venue, I'd give a ^ to The Sheep's Heid (Oldest Pub in Scotland, great selection of Beer & Whiskies, excellent traditional food, damn fine Haggis, even better Steak & Ale Pie, and a beautiful location on the backside of Arthur's Seat near Duddingston Loch).

If there's a DO in EDI, I'll definitely attend (if I hadn't planned on being there already)

Glasgy is a pit. Best avoided. I'm glad this isn't the BA board, as I'd be pilloried by now :p

All seats allocated to cuddly toys from the BA board on their way to one do after another

Still shocking to me to see the EDI and GLA-EWR flts. sold out in Y around the start of April....not even sleazy pass available in Y. Never seen that even in during the height of summer.

It was also Tartan Week in the United States - lots of tourism and development agency staf heading over to NYC or meetings.

Scotland has done really well for CO, and EDI in particular. I'm not in the least bit surprised that award inventory is scarce.

Let's do the 'Do!

Good. In honor of CO's success there, who's up for a Highland 'Do? Any Scots out there willing to help coordinate it? I can help from the CLE hub. We need EWR and IAH helpers. And someone to schmooz CO brass into discounts (group rate?) and freebies--such as complimentary Continental blue and white kilts for one and all. :) I happen to have a great pair of gams!

Who wants to help plan this? ^

Someone's ahead of you ;)

The last big EDI do was a great success, from what I can remember of it :D

Fall 'Do
 
That's all well and good, but don't be a party pooper. My notion is to have an autumn 'Do . . . a Continental-themed one at that. ^ Bonnie Scotland deserves us OnePass'ers. :) Why not?
