    With the way AA has been handing out EQMs like candy (on OWMD, but also via DEQ11 and DEQAA), I knew that it had to be point based. But I had (and still have) faith in you, Ed, so I held out a glimmer of hope.

    Yes, I’m afraid, and this was likely the point, and I don’t mean this for just in my case alone, that this will be a shore too far away for me to reach now that it’s come out as Points rather than EQM’s.:(

    But so will the Dr... so I'm still ahead :p

    June for sure, maybe earlier

    All because she wore the apron for the charity pic?
  3. Sagy Gold Member

    True, that was a nice bonus.

    In all fairness she was ahead of you before that - face it, you are number 2; you picked on someone who is way out of your league. On the bright side, you did get her; so I guess you are a winner afterall. :)

    A quick note to all that attended the Mega DO. I just noticed this myself, so I thought I'd share:

    The Free One Day Admiral's Club pass that we received was a great thing, but even better is there is a $100 discount off of a NEW Admiral's Club membership included with use of the pass. For EXP this = $250, which is worthy of a mention.:)

    Yes, I thought it was a good deal. A couple of weeks after the DO - I was departing LAX and decided to join. I could either use the pass for a one day visit and apply to a membership or just a one day visit but then you had to surrender the discount coupon. So I got a membership.

    The writing on the back of the card is in small white letters on a light blue background so it is hard to read. There is supposed to be a promo code on the back by it is not readable.

    So the AC agent at LAX took my credit card and coupon and processed. She had to make calls, but about 1/2 later she paged me in the club and all was taken care of.

    A couple of days later (independent of this) I got a letter from AA about joining the club with a $50 discount. This was sent before I joinged. So the $100 off was a better deal.

    Net - allow extra time if you want to redeem the DO coupon at an AC - and likely best to do in the daytime. They will likely have to call to get the code

    YMMV, but my membership was processed at ORD H-K club in no time, with no calls.

    In addition, as QF Emeralds have access to Admirals Clubs regardless of class of travel, I have my voucher at home sitting around gathering dust.

    If there's any MP'ers out there that would find some use for it, please drop me a line and i'll get it in the post to you. It's end of April expiry so still some time. Would be a shame for such a generous offer from AA to go to waste:)

    Are you willing to throw in a leftover small bottle of gin, too?

    I don't understand this concept of "leftover gin"--in my experience, gin is never left over?
  7. William JLP Gold Member

    Sorry about that. How about "gin that will be consumed very soon?"

    I prefer to call it 'Emergency Gin'. Fortunately my bar is very well stocked now. 2L Tanquery No. 10, 2L Tanquery, 2L Plymouth, 2L Hendricks. Just don't tell Tommy ;)

    Too late, I just saw him running to ORD trying to catch a flight to MEL :D

    Considering you're inhabiting my lounge for a few nights and I have the only key to my apartment, you'd effectively be stuck there :p
  9. William JLP Gold Member

    And of course you graciously stocked a full supply of cola products for your guest.

    Found on YouTube from the tail end of our journey. Good grief, I'm surprised we didn't break the passenger control unit/FA Call button system. Fun times!!

    On SMD3, we blew the fuse for the call buttons on an entire side of the plane. :p Oops.

    G'day DrMrsNYCAdventurer, and welcome!
    It's all lies you know. We really have a very drab time, no partying, no adult beverages, no fun things like escape slides or water evacuations. No sirree, no way.

    Oh, hang on, you're going to come to the next one? Well, are you ever in for the best time since you were a kid with summer holidays & camp all rolled into 3- 6 days. ( big grin, and a wink wink, since my smilies arn't working for me)
