Ok, this is an attempt to plan and schedule the first meeting of everyone who is interested!
my proposal: New York City, probably the easiest Thing for everyone to request and to get, right???
I would say for April, that should be enough Time for all of us to plan in advance.
Input is welcome at any time. as this is a serious attempt, i would love to see as many people as possible!
get your butts up and spread your wings to JFK!!!!! images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif

Woohoo! I was headed there for vacation in April, I will be there 4/19, 20, and 21, with a possibility of 4/22. images/icons/smile.gif

My birthday's on 4/23, so we could also have "The Mother Of All Birthday Parties!" images/icons/shocked.gif images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/wink.gif

If it's that weekend, I'm definitely in. images/icons/cool.gif

Keep us posted!

I'd say that we should all pick a central location or something in New York where we could all get to with ease. Maybe some one could make reservations at a resturant for a large lunch party or something?

What do you think?

Studley
February 16, 2002, 02:45 AM
Lunch is cool. Or, make it a dinner and then a bar night. images/icons/smile.gif

Let's decide on dates for this first. I am actually a bit more flexible than I once believed. I can either make it the weekend I posted earlier, or the next weekend. I can do midweek, 4/22 - 4/26 as well.

Well, don't worry,if it up to Tamme,we'd stay at the Plaza in the Presidential Suite, all together!?!
images/icons/wink.gif images/icons/grin.gif

A big lunch would be great! But still, WHERE AND WHEN!? images/icons/confused.gif

traveler
February 16, 2002, 01:44 PM
Sorry, but I can't give a definite.
I have some other stuff going on in my life,
and I neither work to N.Y. nor have vacation time then.
But who knows ... maybe.

Someone should pick a date though.

Tamme ? You started this, care to initiate the specifics ?

Tamme
February 17, 2002, 06:10 AM
ok guys,
as everyone seems to leave this up to me again, i would propose somewhere in the mid of the month, or in the end! i am off the last week in april due to vacation, but could also request a flight there during the month. i have no schedule with me at the moment, and since my computer is still broke, i am replying again from a cybernet cafe.
if i go there for work, i will stay in the holiday inn on broadway, if not, i am sure there will be a not too pricy alternative somewhere.
as soon, as i have my dates, i will show them. images/icons/grin.gif
would be great to see some of you.
and by the way, euroboy, like i said, this is a serious attempt.....orgies are welcome, but not a must! LOL

traveler
February 17, 2002, 06:30 AM
Would it be an idea if we pick different cities on that same date.
Some are stuck with different routes or destinations.
It would sound kinda cool if there were crewstart meetings (or AirlinCrew.net meetings) at let's say Paris, London, Amsterdam, New York, Detroit, Los Angeles and Sydney at the same time.
Well, maybe that would be a bit much. Just a thought.

exBEKL2B
February 17, 2002, 08:20 AM
Yes, traveler, that's a great idea, let's say LAX, NYC, AMS, (no many people from the middle east here, but still worth it) DXB, and SYD.

I sign in for AMS! images/icons/grin.gif http://www.stopstart.fsnet.co.uk/mica/face.gif

NY is kinda tough for me, bec I don't fly long-range, but I'd definitely be able to make it to AMS!

exBEKL2B
February 17, 2002, 09:46 AM
See, we can just have a meeting in AMS for all european crew and americans who fly international!
Paul, OF COURSE YOU ARE INVITED, why do you think I am arranging this in YOUR homebase!!!!!

So,anyone, post some dates and we'll figure out when, if not, I'll organize the whole thing!

Hope to see you all in http://www.stopstart.fsnet.co.uk/flags/neth.gif then!!!!!!!

I can get to New York easily. The Milford Plaza in midtown is pretty central and they have KLM/USAirways/KoreanAir/Asiana crews staying there so we could probably get a decent rate. They have been redecorating, too. I am willing to call them when y'all decide on a date. Also, if anyone coming would be interested in trading an extra set of their wings for US Airways wings, let me know ahead of time and I will make sure to bring extras. This sounds like alot of fun!

traveler
February 17, 2002, 11:32 PM
Well, AMS would be very convenient for me of course.
A little insight into my life:
Let's see. the in-laws don't show till May I just heard.
My wedding anniversary is April 22 though.
If I go partying with a bunch of people on that day she's going to be a little ticked.
I've requested that off, so I'll probably be working just before and after that.
So, April 16, 17, 18 or earlier in the month or 27, 28 and onwards should be possible. Later into May would be tough.
If I want to be definite I need to request it off 6 weeks in advance.

If I am off that day I could pick some people up at the airport and take 'em to where we're going. Public transport is available too. And to Ifly: Are you just gonna request a work trip or would there be a crew-hotel with major discount available to you or should we try to find you something ? I could try to talk my wife into letting some folks stay at our house. We live 30 minutes drive to the north, though. Guess I'd have to stay relatively sober.

It's gonna take a little planning.
Like exbekl.. (we need to work on that name !) said; why doesn't everybody who's interested in AMS first write down the dates they can and can not.

ifly
February 18, 2002, 07:31 AM
Thanx for asking, traveler... I was going to check out AMS some time anyways, so why not this April. I would take a few days off and stay at a hotel with my honey. Maybe the weekend 25-28? I have to request my days off by the 24th of this month....

DLguy140
February 18, 2002, 08:26 PM
Amsterdam in April works for me...Just make it late afternoon please for those of us that will be fighting jetlag...Plus I will have to take the train from Den Haag, since my airline thinks we want to stay out there for some stupid reason.. graemlins/windsock_smilie.gif

February 18, 2002, 09:33 PM
I like the idea of New York. It is rather symbolic.

Another thought. New Orleans, last weekend of April or first week of May. The Jazz Festival will be taking place. It's different.

Cliff
February 19, 2002, 03:05 PM
Amsterdam? Great, I live in Amsterdam! You could all come and see my uniform collection...... Hopefully I will be home on that special day! images/icons/rolleyes.gif

February 19, 2002, 04:07 PM
Guys, I thought about it, and shouldn't we "euro" guys take the CAPITAL of Europe?????
Si,claro, BELIGICA!!!!! http://www.stopstart.fsnet.co.uk/Gif/SimpBurns.gif
(yes, I am actually putting on my face like Mr Burns always does, thinking, ...)

As I had a bad experience with AMS last weekend!
No further comment, some of you know what I am talking about! And yes, I would appreciate if those who know would shut up about it.

So,what do you think, BRUSSELS?
Dorint hotel, so we can all stay at Skyboy's room.

Oooooor, eventually, AMS?

Hoi DDD-tje,

If you feel you need an invitation then here it comes :

You're invited ! .... you coming ?

Although nobody knows when and where exactly.
But I'm sure a way will be found.

---------------------------------------------

To exBEKL2B... (yeah I'll shut up about you know what)
(p.s. are you gonna come up with a name we can pronounce ?)

Ifly (+honey), Cliff, DLguy140, myself, Paul (the creator) and duizenddingendoekje
have indicated interest for AMS.
Think you can convince them to change to BRU ?
Well, it is not that far nor difficult to reach. We'll see.

For me AMS Saturday evening the 27 th of April
dinner and drinks and hitting the town for those who care to
is pretty convenient. (DLguy should be awake by then).

All in favour say " I ".

-Ifly : Du kannst doch ne Flug nach Brüssel nehmen?! images/icons/wink.gif 5 flights a day VIE-BRU-VIE

-Cliff : mmm,I know KLM does not give you a lot of free passes (or maybe none) images/icons/tongue.gif
But you can take a KLC flight, no?

-DLguy140 : duuuuuuuh, Delta flight 140 is the JFK-BRU flight!!!!! so, no problem here I guess!
images/icons/rolleyes.gif
+ he can take a 4 day layover BRU,he'll have time enough to fight against the jetlag!

-Paul, DDD, Traveler , Cliff and all you other SPL chicks and dudes : Carpooling,KLM city hopper,Train AMS-BRU , ... Do I need to say more?
images/icons/wink.gif

-Tamme, chiemseenixe and all you Luftie people out there, FRA-BRU, MUC-BRU, MANY MANY flights a day!

And of course, all you other f/a's out there, just shout if you wanne join us ...

If it's up to me I say we go for AMS. First of all since it's nice and close by, but also because it seems many other crews from all over fly more frequently on AMS than on BRU.
But if we should go to BRU... I'll be the BOB images/icons/grin.gif

February 20, 2002, 06:24 AM
Crunch time date-wise !!!
I have to go to work tonight, shall I request that day off ???
(and the next morning).
Final destination can still be planned afterwards.
I think I'll just go ahead and request it.
We'll see if it comes together.

Hmmmmm,
I see, my Attempt to get NYC involved failed......
Europe is easy for all of us, but what about everyone else here????

NYC is a good place, i mean every airline has several flights a day to JFK. By the way where are your crew-hotels? Swissair is in the Sheraton in Manhattan, I hope that we will be named "Swiss" and not in the a youth-hostel...
But for the upcoming worlds premium airline... images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif

By the way, I think LH is in Manhattan, too?!

yes, we are in a holiday inn.
so, great, seems like there is still enough people to be interested in jfk.
good, because i have already requested it, or newark as alternative.
will know around the mid or end of march, if it worked out! hope to c some of u! images/icons/grin.gif

Cliff
February 22, 2002, 12:33 PM
To bad, but New York doesn't work for me in April. This summer schedule Northwest will take over our daily afternoon flights to both JFK and EWR!!! There are only four or five evening flights left for us at KLM. The flight that leaves on Saturday evening arrives at JFK around 9PM. Too late for dinner! It will also be very hard for me to get this 5 day trip....a lot of flight attendants are requesting this popular trip!!!

I would prefer AMS. Hopefully I will be able to get a day off on the 27th of April.

Im in for NYC! The end of the month would work best for me. Let us know the time and place. The Milford Plaza Hotel is an OK place. They will probably give us a great deal on rooms. Be sure to request floors 26 and 27, these are the floors that have been remodeled. Another great hotel is the Park Central. images/icons/grin.gif

Could you find out? I guess that's the next area of concern. Would it be feasible for as many of us as possible to be in the same hotel, and what kinds of rates would we get?

Who can research this?

March 14, 2002, 02:36 PM
Three weeks ago I had a layover in New York, our crew stays in The Milford Plaza. I had to get some info for a friend of mine who is going to New York in April. The lady at the reservation department told me that they do give airline discount ! A double room would be $98 plus tax. Please double check!

March 14, 2002, 02:51 PM
I called the Milford this morning and they told me $98, as well for our airline discount. This isn't to bad of a price for Manhattan. Great location 1 block away from Times Square. Walking distance to the theater and resturants.

Ok, Folks, this is what I hope on getting done!

I did not get JFK or EWR for April, since it has been withdrawn from my Area. I will be in Chicago on the 1st and 2nd, trying to change my 4-Day-European-Tour on 18th till 21st into a JFK or EWR, if I find someone willing!
Besides this, I think the Weekend of the 26th to the 28th sounds good to me! Hope, my Finances work out till then! But I would say, that these Dates should be regarded by Everyone as the Schedule!

Hope, that this is going to work out! Thank you everyone for your Support! images/icons/grin.gif

Ok, you Guys and Girls,

Studley and I have come up with the following Dates:

April 26th till April 28th, the last Weekend in April!

If you can make it there, please give Reply! I am saving up Money for the Tickets at the Moment, hoping that I will make it till then, but normally Things work out!

About the Stay, Everyone has to find her/his own Place to stay, since I won´t take the Risk to make Reservations for People who don´t show up!
Hope, you all understand this!

So, I hope, we can make it to the first Happening, because I think, it would be truly great to take this Chance of getting to know each other Personally, and on the other Hand, move a little closer together in this wide World of Flying!

Would love to see as many as possible!

Cool! When Tamme gets back from his trip, we'll get where we want to go settled upon. It's looking like 4/27 is the date most people will be there. 4/26 can also be a good date for those with extended layovers.

Hi everyone... just wanted to say that I believe it's a great opprtunity that eevryone has to meet with other people from this unique community. Unfortunately I'll be on Easter Island on a layover, so about 15000 km are between me and new york on the 27th.

I'd like to make a special regonition to Tamme, cos he is always submitting great topics, asking what nobody else dares to ask images/icons/wink.gif and now, organizaing this great meeting, so congratulations to you, and hope to find someone with your initiative on my nest flight.. Good Luck... images/icons/smile.gif

Ok, Guys and Gurls,

since I will only stay for 24 Hours in NYC, sorry about that, but I have a Move to make at the End of the Month, Studley and I have come up with the Following Meeting Point (this is only a Suggestion):

How does the Rainbow Room up in Rockefeller Plaza sound to you all??? I think that could be quite a nice Place to get cosy with each other! images/icons/grin.gif

So, let us know, who is attending when, since I will be gone on the 27th again to Frankfurt. Sorry about that!

Hope to hear from you all

Kisses and Hugs images/icons/grin.gif

Hi Tamme,

Unfortunately, I can't make it to New York on the 27th. I am on longhaul reserve on the 13th of April. I do hope you will have lots of fun. Thanks for taking care of everything!

Regards from Amsterdam,

Hi guys, I'll be in NY on the 26th.
The thing is Im on leave from the 19th, so won't be able to check the internet, unless someone knows a place in Cancun, where you can check it.
Just need to know the time you want to meet and if we have to wear something like red rose etc.

SEE YOU SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!! images/icons/cool.gif

Hey ff!

There used to be a search engine for internet cafes in different cities on the crewstart page, I'm sure it's still there!

TO ALL OF YOU GOING TO JFK!

HAVE A GREAT TIME, wish I could be there, too!

Studley
April 18, 2002, 05:15 PM
Based on those I know who are getting into NYC on 4/26, let's say, 18:00-ish NYC Time? You can wear your wings if you like. Bring your friends as well! images/icons/smile.gif

How about this: Whoever's there first, if they can get a table, can leave word at the bar of where the group will be. images/icons/smile.gif

Thought there was already something planned for NYC 24-26 APR, which was too late for me to join. If any other date emerge, I'll keep an eye on it to try to join too if you accept a "grounded", still flying but only for pleasure !
On another end, I already note down my agenda Sep 7th in SFO.... I will do my best to attend.

Tamme
April 19, 2002, 11:04 PM
Ok,
I might come a little later than 6:00PM, but did we we agree on the Rainbow Room up in Rockefeller Plaza?????

Studley
April 19, 2002, 11:46 PM
Yes we did! images/icons/smile.gif

Tamme
April 21, 2002, 04:46 PM

I'm looking forward to it as well. The first time I'm in NYC, and not working, so I can enjoy things more.

So, the latest Update for everyone attending the Meeting:

As I will be hosted by Studley, I guess we will arrive together.

The Meeting has been set for 6:00PM in the Rainbow Room up on the 36th Floor in Rockefeller Plaza on Friday, the 26th.

I was thinking of making a Reservation there, but then decided against it. As it is quite an expensive Restaurant, I thought we might just have a Drink there, and then hop on somewhere else for Dinner. But I think, we should decide on this spontaneously together!

As on the Question, what to wear, I believe that the Idea of the Wings is great! Everyone has to wear her/his Wings viewable.

The first One up there should reserve a Spot at the Bar, I will try to arrive on Time, but since my Flight comes in at 3:25PM, and I have to work late the Day before, please forgive, if I come slightly en Retard.

If even the Bar should be full, stay at the Entry to make sure to catch everyone.

This will probably be the last Reply from my Side before the Meeting, so, if there are any important Changes, Questions, etc, etc, send me a Shortmessage soon enough!

I am excited!

See ya all! images/icons/grin.gif

Aww, thanks, Pam! images/icons/smile.gif

I'm in NYC right now.

I met flightgirl earlier this evening! The first-ever meeting of AirlineCrew.Net members.

I met her before you did, Bridget. images/icons/tongue.gif

And she kissed me! Well, it was my birthday yesterday, you know. images/icons/grin.gif

Guys, she is just as sweet as she is on here. And she really does look exactly like Traylor Howard (the girl from the ABC sitcom "Two Guys, a Girl, and a Pizza Place").

We had a very nice dinner and conversation in Times Square.

Temps are cool in NYC right now, with rain anticipated this weekend.

Whoo hoo! images/icons/grin.gif You met the infamous flightgirl and she's as much of a doll in person as she is here? That's great!!!

(although I will admit to being just a tad bit jealous that you met her first...in a totally heterosexual way, of course) images/icons/wink.gif

So you'll be able to identify her when she comes to Dallas, right? Tell her I'll see her on her next DFW layover.

Cheers!
Bridget

Happy Birthday Studley. I am jealous, I will be the last one you meet in NYC. My-Oh-My the pressure is on! images/icons/grin.gif

Studley

Where were ya, Frecuent flyer? Did the CO flights fil up? Maybe the signals got crossed. Only Tamme, myself, and a friend of mine from BOS were at the Rainbow Room, in the Rainbow Grill area, which was the bar. We were there from 19:30 ET until 22:00 or 23:00, so there would have been plenty of time to find us.

We also left word at the front counter, and they would have brought you to where we were. I even gave them my cell phone number.

No sweat, 'cause we met several other folks at the bar and carried on great conversations with a spectacular view of the Empire State Building, all lit up in Red, White, and Blue. images/icons/smile.gif

All of you missed a extremely fun time! images/icons/tongue.gif Tamme is even more fun in person than he is on the board! images/icons/grin.gif

He told me to tell those who were supposed to be there, "Shame on you for not coming like you said you would!" I'm sure when he gets back, he will post something.

After leaving "30 Rock", we ended up going through several bars and clubs in the Flat Iron District and Union Square, before settling in for a night of wild (and I mean WILD), raucous (and I mean RAUCOUS) reggae dancing at a place called Nells. We finished the party there.

HI GUYS!!!!
I THINK WE MISSED EACH OTHER!!!!!!!1
I WAS THERE FROM 18:00 TILL 19:15
I TOLD THE THE BAR MANAGER & RESTAURANT MANAGER ABOUT THE MEETING, AND TIRED OF WAITING I LEFT AT ABOUT 19:15.WHAT A PITY!!!

Studley
April 28, 2002, 11:23 PM
Sounds like we did miss each other. But they didn't mention anything to me about anyone else asking about it. images/icons/mad.gif

Flightgirl, you can make up for it in SFO. images/icons/smile.gif

Hey everyone! I met Koolkat and her AC crew last night! She's a real hottie, with a fantastic bod. All her curves are in the right places. I know because I checked. images/icons/wink.gif

She got me a present, too! images/icons/cool.gif

We partied with the Port Authority Police half of the night. The bar we were in was serving free beer, so that kind of helped, too. images/icons/smile.gif

Then we went to a hot and happening salsa/meringue club just off Times Square to dance.

I'm back in DFW now. I need a vacation to recover from my vacation! images/icons/grin.gif

May 1, 2002, 07:01 AM
Ok, everyone.
Well, I guess, Studley already said everything that I can think of.
I do have to say though, that I am a little disappointed in all of you, who said who would attend this Meeting! Just imagine, I came all the Way from Germany to see you Guys, if Studley would not have been there, I would have been all by Myself! Not a nice Thought!
On the other Hand, you Guys really missed out on something! We had a kill Time, and I will defenitely try to make it to the SFO Meeting.
Everything starts out small, I hope that this Idea will establish over the Years, since I think it has been a Sucess in JFK!
So, next Time, I expect everyone there, who gave a concrete Yes, if not, get lost!
That´s about it, what I had to say!
Thank you again to Studley and Audette for this great Evening, I am really looking forward to the next One!!!!!

Safe Flights to all of you!
