Anyone doing HEL-TXL AY1433 tomorrow (fri) at 11.30 and would like to invite me to lounge? I'm trying to avoid Aspire.

It’ll be enough if anyone flies one world the same time.

I haven’t guested anyone in in a few years. The wiki sort of dilutes the HEL meetings with the DOs. Should we split up the thread?

Just had an unplanned mini-DO at LHR and turned out here were more people, FTrs and lurkers trying cX and the new QF lounge.

Next DO-idea: what about a visit to ROyal air force museum in London?

CX introduced their new lounge menu today. Just had the salmon with rose petals - must’ve been a rough weekend since I didn’t see any roses!

How about a Helsinki do in April? You guys could do an oral trip report of the NY trip and the inaugural LAX flight!

Options are April 6, 13, 20 or 27. I can put it to the wiki for voting!
