Already booked my Island Hopper for mid-July or I'd be all over this ... I'm a dispatcher for another carrier and Asia / Pacific is my playground at work. Would be fun to tag along and Av-Geek out with everyone.
Watch for typhoons that time of year. August / September is peak season for the western pacific, but October is plenty busy also.

I have been to GUM several times. I could suggest maybe a group picnic
at one of the many such groves on the most beautiful part of the island, the south.
I'd be more interested in another SIM opportunity in either IAH or DEN.
