One year at Flyertalk
I signed up for flyertalk.com last may which means that I have been on the board for a year! Happy Birthday Kempis!
When I first signed up for FT one year ago I didnt realize that FT was so addicted and since that day I have almost been here every single day (unless when I have been out flying).
What have I learnt this year?
* I became Hilton Gold VIP just by reading FT and making one phone call
* I switched from SK EuroBonus to AC Aeroplan to try to became Star Gold. Which I will most likley became sometime in August.
* I have also meet alot of great people. Johna(R.I.P),Goldlust,Austman and several other persons at the Catman DO.
Will I still be at Flyertalk this time next year? Most likely.
Thanx again FT and I am looking forward to another year on the board.

Happy anniversary Kempis. The board is still a good source of info despite some of the "skirmishes".
Hope you are around next year and still sharing (both ways).

I cant make it to Vancouver in May. I need to work
To bad since Vancouver is actually one of my fav cities in North America. That * Gold card will have to wait for a few more months.

So is 30/6 the set date for the meeting in CPH? How long will you stay in Scandinavia?
