My first appearance in this thread, and of course I'm gonna point out stuff about me.
It was a pleasure to be able to book the ticket for Petr... He wanted to leave on March 22, but unfortunately Aeroplan decided that they didn't want people using points for flights to Prague that day, so had to talk to Petr to see if he was ok with the 23rd (I asked about the 21st too, but totally forgot there was a game that night), and he was and that was the end of that!
I can see how important it is for Petr, and like many have said, it is the greatest Czech hockey player playing for his favourite team, there is just no way this does not happen. Had some conversations with Locke and he mentioned that he may need a little more help with the plane ticket... figuring the amount of points I'd collected over so many years, this was a good way to use them (I'm weird in the sense that I collect, but really use it)
I like to do things in the background and somewhat anonymously, hence I have yet to post in this thread until now... and didn't want to come out saying that I'd booked Petr's ticket to get here.
Anyway, on to the next part

I blame this squarely on STeely who made the plane ticket a lot cheaper than I budgeted for and the rest of you for being absurdly generous.

Damn it Locke! I already apologized for screwing up your accounting when I came to see you! If you wanted, I could have made it more expensive... would that help with the accounting?

If I didn't use the points for Petr, could have sent about 4 people to Vegas, but you'd have to suffer on AC Rouge though.
