I would also like to know the odds that I will be able to speak to UAL and DAL, or would I be better cutting my losses and getting back $100 out of the $199 I paid a few days ago.... |
I'd politely ask for a full refund and if they say no or don't respond, contact your bank and do a charge-back. I'd say that they have not delivered what's promised since they haven't told people when it is sold out.

The catch to the fair-only registration for $150 is you need to become a member, which is $49. Once you click on the member registration, you can select exhibits career fair only for a grand total of $199. I paid for mine on 1 June and got suckered also. Now I can't even "modify" my registration to see if there are appointments open. Oh well. Is this shin-dig business casual? |

With that said; has anyone attended without appointment times? If so, how was it? |

Last year you could not talk to UA without a slot. They said that they would normally have had a standby line, but OBAP had scheduled appointments through lunchtime even though the UA people were going to a luncheon. So they were backlogged for the rest of the day and were unable to take standbys. DL was easy to talk to without a slot. Not sure about the rest but I think you could have talked to the rest on standby. Hopefully it's organized better this year and they will all be taking standbys.

I volunteered to work this conference (I'm with AA and live in Chicago and wanted to help out). I'm not totally certain that I'll be selected, but if I am I'll ask whether or not we'll only be meeting with attendees who have a slot or if there will be additional opportunities.

Is it possible to still register despite tickets being sold out? I'm going just for Atlas. I'm not seeing anything to buy a ticket, it's either "A La Carte" or "Full Registration"

Anyone just get a modified appointment from United? I got an email from OBAP yesterday saying that due to the overwhelming demand, they had to adjust my time. I'm ****ed because it now schedules me 10min prior to my Delta appointment. This is bull**** and very poorly organized for the amount of money we're spending on here. So now I either take the later United appointment and skip Delta, or go to my Delta appointment and skip United.

I just got an interesting email today that said there was still time to register. ***? I thought this thing was closed for registration weeks ago. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk |

Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk I stood in line for over 6hrs at NGPA and didn't talk to United. This time I made sure to sign up for slots with each company, and I STILL won't be able to talk to the people I want to talk to. It's ridiculous. |
