Thank you for all the amazing emails expressing thanks.
Thank you for supporting Chris as he took over the day to day of the blog.
Really I could go on all day long as there are just not enough words I could ever say to express how much I have appreciated the joy of being a Delta focused blogger for the better part of a decade.
Please, if you see me in an airport or lounge (or on a ship), come up and say “Hi”. Share with me your best travel moments and points adventures.
Lastly, Chris and I were talking about some kind of reader meet-up in 2020. Shall we try to put one together? If so, where and what? Maybe a PanAm adventure or something else? Let us know in the comments below! – René

Oh René I have been on your blog since the beginning of your blogging. It has been the most educational, good natured, good spirited, informative and helpful blog on the internet.
You have always been so kind and generous of spirit!
I truly hope a 2020 gathering is organized because I will be there with bells on. Wishing you all the best
Congratulations on 8 years. How about a meetup that is a little closer to home so some of us don’t have to take so much time off work…..unless somebody wants to fund my retirement? LOL
Alaskan cruiseso somebody can help me with booking the best ship at the best t8me for the best price! On my bucket list and, since I just retired, time to explore it. I don’t know where to start, much less what to end up on. Suggestions welcomed. I’ve certainly learned a lot from you René, and for that I thank you.
