Hi Jerry and Diane. We'll be heading down to CSS the same time you are. We are leaving Saturday morning the 13th from Milwaukee. We are on AA @ 6:20am and arrive in Jamaica about 1:45pm. Totally looking forward to getting to the Couples lounge.

Steve and Trish

We're flying out of Ohare arriving @ 2:18. I guess we may even end up on the same shuttle to the resort. If you guys are interested in meeting for a cold Miller Lite before we leave, let us know. You can email us SSB4US@gmail.com. Otherwise we'll see you in a couple of weeks.

Jerry & Diane in Brookfield
