UA Official ORD DO
« on: September 25, 2012, 10:08:19 AM »
UA Insider just posted to FT,

"Hi Everyone,

If you’re interested in learning more about what it takes to run United’s operations and meeting our management team, our November event may be just your ticket. On Nov. 15th and 16th we’ll be hosting a 2-day event here in Chicago, including exclusive behind-scenes tours, Q&A sessions with our experts and an opportunity to meet us…and each other.

More details will be shared soon, and space for this first event is going to be extremely limited. Stay tuned for more information later this week to learn how to request a spot.

Shannon Kelly
Director, Customer Insights
United Airlines"


This is the first official DO I can recall not happening on a shabbos, so who's going to try to get in? Would be cool to get a few DDF guys onboard.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

My guess is registration will close quickly, so anyone who is interested should be ready to register when it does.

Oh this could be a trap.
Be careful if you ever posted something about selling miles...

They probably want to see what status you hold as if you are an elite member you will probably have a higher chance of getting a ticket.

I sent in my request.

Never traded there.

Anyways I won't be able to make it those dates, although I'd love to meet Smisek.

IIRC "day out"
It's not about the quantity of your posts.  It's about the quality.
