I saw in the LH Forum that tomorrow there is a big sale on LX flights, and apparently LOT Polish is having a 50% Saturday discount.

MIA-ZRH-PRG sounds like fun. :-:

I'll be at ORD from 3:30-5:30p, so if you do go, I'll probably just miss you.

The LOT fares are a little :rolleyes: for winter travel. Hopefully LX comes up with something better...

Good to go. :-:

Why not come in early if you can get out of your meetings? Come to the deep dish mini-Do referenced in the CBuzz thread, and stay free in the suite. Do Westin suite couches pull out??

These are the pre-sale sales. Lots of hooplah for discounts from :rolleyes: prices comparable to high-season fares. I suspect we won't see the deep discounting until November, at the earliest. I have a feeling PRG should be doable for sub-$500a/i. I'm willing to wait until 21 days out to test that theory.

Depends on the hotel. My last one at the Westin Old Town Alexandria did. The one I had in Calgary did not. Just call the hotel and ask. They will know.

I agree. Last year, I didn't purchase my ticket to BRU until 12/15 so I'm not worried.

How did the Westin Minneapolis treat you last weekend?

Didn't realize that Nirvana's Bleach is being re-released on November 3rd. ^

Indeed. I shall do that now, and hopefully influence :rolleyes:v's decision making.

Quite well. I was only there about 4 hours in total, due to a delayed CLT-MSP, but they set me up in a nice Parlor Suite on a high floor. I would estimate it was about 575 sq. ft. in total, with the new Earth Tones & Greens Westin Interior.

If I go tomorrow I would take the 6am outboubd and 8:54 return, so I may leave a hidden treasure for you :D

There will be an envelope taped to the underside of a pay phone booth - look for the small piece of crushed chalk on the floor. (For those who don't read espionage nonfiction, that's a very common piece of tradecraft.)

We could do mid-March. That's Spring Break for us.
