Chicago Seminars 2015 tickets went on sale today, April 28, 2015 at 9am PT/12pm ET. I’ve got mine. Have you got yours?

Is this conference right for me?
Beginners – Absolutely! This would be (and is) the conference I recommend to newbies to the travel/miles/points arena.
Advanced – Maybe. While I attend primarily for the social aspects, I always manage to learn some great, new tips from the speakers AND from socializing (the best part!).

As for where to stay, if you are a Hilton person like I am (for better or for worse), you might consider the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Chicago Wood Dale – Elk Grove.

Yes, a ridiculously long and goofy name, but this hotel is nicely remodeled DoubleTree just a few minutes from the conference (via Uber, taxi or your own car). I have stayed here for numerous Chicago Seminars in the past and find the price is right.  HOWEVER, there is NOT a hotel shuttle serving O’Hare International Airport, but there is a shuttle for up to a 5 mile radius (ORD is 9 miles).

I booked it for 20,000 HHonor points per night which I value at about $80.
Or you could go with the Hilton MVP rate of only $87!

Chicago Seminars

Always a huge honor to see Capt. Denny Flanagan!

See you all there!

One of my favorites!
