4. • Let’s also assume
they work in a
small office
• And there aren’t
many places to
hide!
5. And the next time they get alone isn’t
for 5 weeks…
6. Now let’s assume
Chicago that both person’s
Las will be travelling
Vegas during the same
week…
But not to the
same places…
7. So the question is… Is there an
adventurous plan that can bring them
together?
8. The Plan?
• Okay… there isn’t a best plan… but here are a
couple of ideas. Tobert has thought of a lot of
angles here
• Riffany is very smart, so she may have other
ideas
• Tobert excepts that this may just be too risky
• He also thinks it would be incredible
9. Plan 1
Riffany to Chicago
Leave a day early (Sunday) – fly to Chicago. Note: Office people
will not know the difference because Monday was to be a travel
day
Spend an awesome night in Chicago. Note: Tobert will not be
staying in same hotel as other person from H and won’t plan to
see other person until Monday AM
Riffany Leaves for Vegas on Monday morning
Challenges
Ticket re-issue can be complicated and leave paper trail…
Alternatives – use points to book from JAX to Chicago and from
Chicago to LAS… And keep flight home via US Air in place. Tobert
has points too and likes to give
Need excuse for leaving a day early – “Need to meet with sales
agent and check out a few extra properties for next year”
10. Plan 2
Tobert to Las Vegas
Fly to Las Vegas on Tuesday night. Using points.
Hide from everyone…. Sneak away with Riffany for Wednesday
night fun.. (that is a Tuesday and Wednesday night visitor…)
Fly back to Chicago in the AM and then back to Jax
Challenges
Ticket re-issue of Chicago flight (was going to leave Wednesday)
is easy… Tobert has banking clients in Chicago. The cost is
minimal.
Riffany would have to change red-eye flight to Thursday AM
flight… that would be “understandable”
Biggest Challenge – Dodging Team H who will be in Vegas also…
If they leave on Wednesday this works much better, but chances
are they stay until Thursday
11. Other Plans?
• Tobert has thought of…
– Meeting in North Carolina…
– Riffany coming to Chicago on Wednesday night
(but similar ticket re-issue challenge exist… Points
can make it happen)
12. Risk and Reward
• Tobert knows this is nutso…
but thinks it could be pulled
off…
• Chicago is less risky but asks
more of Riffany
• Tobert is fine if this is just a
fun idea that goes nowhere
• It has been said he is high
imaginative
• But it would be so nice!
• Tobert even has a restaurant
picked out for Riffany in
Chicago
