Cabin Pressure Mini-Meetup at DFW
Mar. 26th, 2013 10:56 pmTHE BEGINNINGS OF A BRILLIANT IDEA
In a series of squeeful emails after each new Cabin Pressure episode,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
drinkingcocoa and I found ourselves regularly lamenting the fact that it would be ages before I could make it to Philadelphia so we could squee in person over the genius of John Finnemore and the ridiculous antics of our favorite cabin crew. However, after one of the episodes, and I can no longer remember which one, we discovered three momentous things: (1) my flight back from Dallas at the very end of my round the world trip was not until 9:30 at night, well after the conference was over and I would have had to check out of my hotel, (2) with a little amount of cash and a chunk of her frequent flyer miles, it would be imminently possible for drinkingcocoa to fly to and from Dallas to hang with me for the day, and (3) the Dallas/Fort-Worth airport has a lot going on.
And thus we began plotting an epic day at the airport, the perfect place to squee over Cabin Pressure:
The Captain and the First Officer prepare for an adventure. I'll let you guess who is who.
In preparation for this massive squee-fest,drinkingcocoa prepared a list of things to do or eat that represented every single Cabin Pressure episode aired (so far, still holding out for Z). I didn't keep track of which ones we were able to cross off, but she came prepared and we tried to hit as many as possible. We began by hitting a hotel bar at 10:00am. And away we go!
( This is your captain speaking... )
