I forked over the $525 for the membership plus the full registration, wasn't fun, especially knowing that I could better spend that on some climbing equipment that I could use. That was the only way I was able to get it.

So what exactly is the ROE for meeting recruiters at these events? Are you to hand them a resume and copy of your app and say, "Hi, I am John Doe and have applied to Brand X"? Do they cross-check these things with your app in their system and use the fact they've met you at an event to bump you ahead inline?

I have a obap ticket for next month that I can't attend now, I would be willing to sell it to someone. However, when I emailed them about how to transfer it to someone else, they just simply replied "No" to my email without an explanation. Does anyone know how I may still be able to transfer it?

Did you have any appointments scheduled with companies?

I do, just about every one of them changed around my original scheduled time though.

If you read the fine print when you sign up, it says that the latest you can transfer a ticket to someone else is something like mid June. Ridiculous especially when they know we don't know our schedules so far in advance.

Has anyone attended in the past? I don't have appointments but do hold a ticket. Do I have a reasonable chance of talking to any of the Legacies; AA, UAL, DAL, and SWA?

So I take it it's confirmed you can't transfer a ticket to someone if you can't make it?

I know they said no transfers but just seeing if anyone had any luck on selling theirs.

I got one for sale if anyone can work some magic and get their name on it. No appointments scheduled though.

I have meeting with United, Delta and and Southwest on Wednesday. Does anyone know if we can swap with someone else for a different day? If someone has a United and delta meeting on Thursday and would instead want one on Wednesday please PM me as I'm unable to make it Wednesday now.
