The FT awards and some sort of special weekend activity are being planned for NYC on Apr 27 - through that weekend.
Any chance of ending up there for that? It would be great if we could all tie into those activities, since they will include another special guest.

I think the dates for the FT awards are the only part of it that's been announced so far, but only as posts in other threads, as far as I know.

Great idea but it has to be on United Metal.
I have 2 homes. One outside of Chicago and one outside of NYC. I haven't spent more than a week in either one of them for over 15 years.

Will hit 9.7 million tomorrow. 300k to go. Aiming for August but it might be tight.I am hoping to do it on a MEL- EWR trip.

Nice to meet you last month. Looking forward to a party on-board one of your flights! Now I wonder how many FTers will be in the F/C cabin on that flight

(CNN) -- Tom Stuker jokes that his home is "in Row One in a nice, big plane."
The 57-year-old car dealership consultant is a mega-frequent flier who has racked up 9.7 million miles during 5,000 flights over the past three decades -- and he's got the stories to prove it.

But it a pain to enter flights manually, at least that the only way I know how.

Also look at open flights. I find it more user friendly.\
