After months of planning, I have the pleasure of confirming an amazing event. It will be an experience for life.
For the first time in Flyertalks history, you have the opportunity to ride on 3 chartered flights catered by Flyertalk and your crew will be your Flyertalk moderators, visit 4 Star partners bases and chat with their executives, visit Airbus and get the very exclusive inside tour, including the A380. And I can assure you there will be many, many more surprises waiting for you...
Welcome to the First Annual Star Alliance Mega DO hosted by tommy777, Randy Petersen, oliver2002, Star Alliance and partners UA, BD, CO, LH and SK.

Flyertalk presents:
The first annual Star Alliance Mega DO
Join us for a once in a lifetime experience, including the first Flyertalk chartered flights.

We have additional aircrafts available if the interest is as high as expected
The set up can be found here:

Seat set up here:
http://www10.condor.com/tcf-us/1216.html
The first and last section on the plane will be business class with the middle seat blocked. The main middle cabin will be coach
Prices includes flights FRA-OSL-TLS-FRA (see above post for times), all meals on the ground (including the Flyertalk reception on Thursday), full catering on board (and when I say full, I mean FULL), all taxes, surcharges and fees and of course, Frequent flyer miles.
The prices are regardless of where you originate. You will get a fixed amount of frequent flyer miles regardless of where you originate. If you start in OSL, TLS or FRA, you will get the same amount of miles
Prices are in Euro and needs to be paid in Euro because all costs are in Euro.
Economy Class: 465 Euros
Business Class: 760 Euros
Frequent Flyer miles/points: You will get 15.000 status points/eqms and redeemable miles from BD, LH or CO as a fixed amount for the charter experience. We are working to get this from SK and UA as well. There will be no class of service bonus or more points for business. The big difference will be service. Total flying time is around 6 hours, 3 flights, catering will be served on all. And boy, if you are up front, what a day it will be ;-)
Seating will be assigned aisle or window on request. The later you buy your ticket, the bigger chance you have to end up in a middle seat if you are in the back. Please note that the 20+ moderators (10 on each flight) will all be assigned middle seats since we are serving on board anyways
