Registration is live.

If you've been to a previous event expect something very similar. If you haven't been before, check out the 2014 Thread

For those who might be new to Flyertalk. If you're interested in meeting other FTers in smaller groups in different locations throughout the year, FT has a forum called "CommunityBuzz".

This is where people will post get-togethers (often called "DOs"), whether it be something as simple as meeting up for lunch or dinner or as organized as activities over a few days in places like London, Australia, Austin, Alaska, etc. It's a great way to meet other travel-oriented folk, but not in academic or large setting like the seminar event.

For those that are new to Flyertalk & want to keep current with what's happening with the Chicago Seminar Event, in every thread there is a link near the top of the thread that says "Thread Tools". On the drop-down menu is an option to "Subscribe to this Thread". When you subscribe to the thread there's also a drop-down menu where she say how often you want to receive notification of updates to the thread (never, as it happens, weekly, etc) & then you get email notifications of posts to the thread in the timelines you've indicated.

Hotel Shuttle Info

The shuttle leaves the hotel to go to ORD on the hour. It goes from ORD to the hotel on the half hour. You pick it up at ORD at the hotel/shuttle bus stop section @ door #2

One more try before I cancel the room...

I currently have a ticket and hotel room at the Holiday Inn Chicago-Elk Grove booked, but a last minute travel opportunity to Ireland came up so I can't use them. This is the host hotel for the event.

Cost is face value for the ticket ($100) + any fees for transferring the room (although I don't think there are any). I will eat the $25 transfer fee for the ticket.

Anyone interested should shoot me a PM or e-mail me at jim AT thefecks DOT com ASAP -- I will be cancelling the room shortly. After that, the ticket will remain available until it is sold.

Thx!

I have a ticket available for face value! I'll obv eat transfer fee, so if you're going to register anyway, please consider letting me transfer mine so I don't have to add the ticket to my sunk costs (flights) for needing to miss the weekend I also have a Saturday night booking at the hotel I can transfer with the registration! PM if interested!

Hi Howie,
I don't see an evening reception in the schedule this year.
I hope it hasn't been dropped; it has been one of the best opportunities to connect with fellow Flyertalkers.

If it doesn't happen many may want to make other evening plans.

Rumor has it that this event is NOT sold out yet.... we need to work on that!

We should all try to find someone else to go!
