You can still make it to Reunion!
We have
negotiated a 5% discount on American Airlines airfare to the Dayton, OH
airport. Travel must take place between September 28, 2009, and October
7, 2009–so you can still get this discount if you’re coming out for
Work Project, or want to stay in Yellow Springs a few days after
Reunion. To get the discount, you must use the code 3899AN on www.aa.com
when booking the flight. You can also use the discount code when
booking the tickets on the phone, but there’s an additional fee for not
booking tickets on-line, so be warned.
