Chicago Seminars Friday-Sunday (Oct 16-18) and Boutique Air Flight Oakland to Merced on Nov 1?

Posted on by . 8 Replies

Update: there are a few tickets for Chicago Seminars still available until 9am PT / 12pm ET here.

Good morning everyone, I have a very busy schedule this week, but I wanted to let everyone know that I will be at the Chicago Seminars this weekend (October 16-18).  I believe tickets are sold out and the transfer window has closed, but if you have a ticket already, I look forward to seeing you this weekend.  You should be able to recognize me with my gray Travel with Grant shirt.  The sessions start on Friday afternoon so I am looking forward to a long weekend of talking miles and points.

In other news, I just learned about a new airline called Boutique Air that flies around California and the West Coast.  They have a hub at Merced, CA (MCE) and offer very cheap flights.
