Im going to the meet and greet, hope you'll be there. It sounds a great way to start this exciting holiday.

Further to Sue's comment about what to wear in Las Vegas, I have spoken to a friend who has been and she says that for a night out or go to a show then people generally get dressed up a bit. Hope that helps people who may be interested. I'm very excited about this holiday and am really looking forward to it. I hope to do as much as I can, a show, the helicopter trip, grand canyon tour. I might never get the chance again.

I think the 110pm trip as it gives us a bit of room for any hiccups or holdups. So if we could all answer with a time. I would really like to get it booked. Im unsure of which grand canyon flight to take. But I most definantley will be on one of them. Glamour babes on the last night will be great way to finish the hols. And you as well ian hehe

Ive went and booked 2 tickets for alcatraz instead of 1. So I will be bringing a spare ticket on the trip incase anyone wants to go on the 110pm trip. I see we fly out at 10.50 instead of 2pm. Im wondering do we get the executive lounge tickets. Do they get sent to us.

Just read your message about Alcatraz tickets. Was about to buy one so would be very happy to buy your spare if still available. Looking forward to meeting you at Heathrow Get Together.Never been on a singles holiday before.Not long now!

Have now received all my final docs - not all correct, but am hoping that will be soon sorted out by JY.

I hope you don't mind, but I've also booked up for the 1:10 p.m. Alcatraz tour.

What time is everyone turning up for the pre-holiday get together? I see you can book in anytime after 2 p.m.

Cheers,

Greg

The more the merrier. Its just another great trip to get excited about. Going to be at the hotel the night before the trip. Looking forward to meeting up with everyone.

Hopefully we all got our pack with tickets at weekend.

Have been having a look at whats on in Las Vegas - not keen on Brat Pack - and have see that Cher is on at the Colosseum, Caesars Palace, which I am going to see instead ($86). Don't know if anyone else is interested? Best day would be the Tuesday 22, starts at 7.30pm.

Also, is everyone flying back through Chicago, or is it just me as I was a late booker ?

Regards, Looking forward to meeting you all.

Not long to Go... !!

Where did u get the tickets from. What web site was it.

Thx tori

I am pleased to read all of your messages and I will be the Tour Manager taking you to California and Las Vegas. It's one of my favourite tours and we are going to have loads of fun! I can see a few of you have already booked your Alcatraz tickets! This is a smart move and I hope that those who haven't will not be disappointed if they it's full! I will also be at the Pre-Tour Get Together on Sunday and will be happy to answer any questions and put your mind at ease! Just a little tip! Don't worry about bringing lots of posh clothes to wear! In USA, dress for the weather not the occasion! It maybe cool in San Francisco so definitely a fleece will need to be packed but after that, shorts and t-shirts will be perfect! Comfortable walking shoes also is recommended. Well, if there is any questions before Sunday I'll check back on this website a few times before I leave home!

I just googled 'alcatraz trips'and got a few sites. Think it is 'Alcatraz Tours' - you will see form the times that they leave (1.10 pm). Was $26.

Hope this is helpful.

Thanks for the 'heads-up'on clothing. Can you tell me what's happening with return flights. I see mine is booked through Chicago to arrv HRW 06.20. Thought we would arr back 12.20 as per brochure? I need to confirm with my taxi for pick up. Am I the only one flying this route?

Many thanks
