You should post that you need a ride in the Hola! DO thread - as that is where most of the people going are watching closely for updates.

Also, where are you staying in SFO... there is a decent chance that someone can pick you up. The rides that have been offered have been for from/to SFO because several people are flying in and flying out for the DO (myself included). If you are in the City, one option would be to BART to SFO and meet up with people there - or get a ride from someone who is coming from the City.

You should post exactly where you are you going to be Saturday night in the Hola! DO thread and I'm sure we can collectively figure out a way to get you to the DO.

Hope to see you there!

Mon - 3/12 - NRT RCC IFL & ANA F & and ?) - 14:00-16:30 (can guest 1)
Don't bother to visit the RCC. The ANA F Lounge in the left wing (looking from check-in and immigration) is one of the nicest lounges I've ever visited. It's slightly behind CX's "The Wing" in HKG. But definitely lengths above SQ's F-Lounge in SIN or MH's F Lounge in KUL.

Besides a very nice Food offering of Sushi, Noodles Sweets I especially liked the stylish and generously sized showers. And yes, they have one of the FT-famous Beer-machines.

Look forward to the Do #2 report.

Oh, not even close. I'd only been here a week at that point, but thanks for the mention!

Thank YOU for sharing.

Glad I got to read your report before starting my LAS-MSP-YYZ-DTW-AMS-MAD-AMS-OTP-AMS-YYZ-MXP-LCA-MXP-YYZ-MXP-LCA-MXP-YYZ-MEM-LAX "run" tomorrow. NW Plat, here I come!

Yeah, I was just joking... but compared to my 12 hours in LAS, one week sure seemed like a long time.

Outstanding itinerary! You sure waited to the last minute to do those LCA runs. ^

Your welcome anytime.
To all, I had a great time - sorry I've been pretty busy, the girlfriend... er... I mean fiancee was in town this weekend and I just dropped her of this morning. I think I have given her the FT "itch" becuase I got her some comped US Silver status and she has now flown in F twice (her first time on Sunday) and she was very pleased.

I proposed to her on Sunday after she found the diamond in my glovebox. We also got her ring and setting on that day too. So I'm happy.

Note: I don't want to overtake alliance's trip report DO thread with congradulations, so please start a new thread in Community if you want to congradulate me and what not.
