You live "Under an ORD approach path", meaning that you need plastic in your clothing just to protect yourself against the air pollution.

I live in a country where 80 degrees F is considered a cold snap.

You can mix/match any of the above items, just keep the dark pants (preferably Navy) and dark shoes with a White Dress shirt. (Ties are optional).

We are attempting to make all of you "blend" in with the Agents, and the Delta team likes the custom Shirt concept with the Delta and FlyerTalk logos.

I am working on shirts with the vendor now. I don't have a final price quote yet, but it looks like the shirts will be in the $20-22 range per shirt which is very reasonable for a Oxford button-down dress shirt. Once I get the final price, I will let everyone know and we will add the option to order them via the registration system online. Yes, there will be a women's version of the shirt available also, and if you want to order a second shirt in another color, we have a logo for a dark shirt too. (Black, Navy, etc.) Of course, this shirt is optional and you are free to wear whatever white shirt you would like.

Here are the shirts:

Men's shirt - Harriton Men's Long Sleeve Twill

Women's shirt - Harriton Women's Oxford

Here is a sample of what the white shirt with the logo will look like:

I am a bit late but thank you for all this information, ATLDLFF (Ataldelff??)

Was last year 2009, or maybe last year was 2004? Darn, I'm not sure!

So, to combine and embellish the corrections:


"Even if the waitlist were still open, there are currently 62 people on it.

OR

Yes, I agree, I live in a state (Florida) where 9 months of the year, 80 degrees is considered a cold snap, and where the other 3 months, about half of the population put away their short pants (while truly shivering) and puts on long pants, since the outside temperature has plunged to 75 degrees!

If we order greater than 36 pieces, custom embroidery is apparently free of charge...

It's hard to tell if it would be available on everything, or special pieces. Also 36 pieces total, or of one particular SKU and size? Regardless, the embroidery charge, if not free, is nominal, considering the entire event.

That's not why you have trouble breathing and need to wear special expensive cotton clothing. Your problem is that you are a chain smoker, and your lungs are shot.

So, bleeding lung liberal that you are, you want me to pay extra for my shirt because of your personal irresponsibility.

grrrrr

I think it is a major TOS violation to libel, defame, and slander anyone by calling him a "liberal".

It is an international event.

We have people coming from as far away as — well — Israel to attend.

Happy belated Chinese New Year!
