Congrats on the milestone! This works out pretty well with my schedule as I am traveling to PHX on the 9:06pm flight. So I will totally be there. Do I still need to email to be part of this official headcount, or can I just check in, clear security, and join the party?

Congratulation! I am very happy and proud of you. ^
I am going to arrange if I could be in the same flight with you.. it will be neat... first I need to get some excuse for time off during weekday.

ua1flyer, congratulations on reaching your milestone and I am happy to hear UA will be paying you the proper honors. I'll create a new thread specific to this mini-Do to make sure those in the Community are aware of it. I hope FTers will be able to join you (and I will be there in spirit).

I'll be in Europe, but I'll be raising a glass to you! That's quite a milestone. Please post some pics of the festivities afterwards.

Wow, quite the milestone. Congratulations....my condolences on being in a plane that much, depending on you want to look at it! 
Jokes aside, that is quite the accomplishment.

I'm going to do my best to be there - and maybe even write a trip report about it! At least, I will try

Anticipatory congratulations!
I happen to be flying SFO-ORD on the 11th, a bit too late to join the celebration. My wife will be in Chicago the 8th-10th, but she really wouldn't see the point in celebrating something like this.
Edit: and in case anyone jokingly asks, no, MRing out to join my wife in Chicago is not an option...we have a 3yo daughter who'd have to come along too, and even though she can sometimes identify the type of planes on the SFO approach path -- "it's an a380 daddy!", "it's a big one!" (for a 747 this afternoon) -- I'd rather not take any unnecessary flights with her.

Congrats Tom. Here's to hoping they paint your name on a 787.

Tom,
We met at the Basque dinner in SFO last fall (the one Randy was at). Can't make ORD but congrats!!!! Wow!!
Dick
P.S. Maybe I can join the lunch with Mahasamatman, just don't propose it be at Izzy's -- tried it once, that was more than enough!

Tom - looks like I can make this.
I will call GS at ORD and let them know I am coming. Or should I let anyone else know? I actually talked to them a little about this yesterday.
Congrats!

Tom - I know we don't know each other, but I would like to congratulate you! I will raise a glass to your achievement on 7/9 as I fly to IAD from GEN and onto BOS. Enjoy your party!!
