I bought a ticket to Frequent Traveler University FTU Advanced Chicago for July, should I buy one for September too?

You can attend both FTU Advanced sessions, but I’ve been told they are exactly the same.

Because FTU Advanced Round 1 sold out in 18 hours, it convinced the organizers to add a second session.

Selling or Transfering Tickets

Tickets are non-refundable, but they can be transferred. You can transfer your ticket for free until August 26, 2014. After August 26, 2014, a $25 transfer fee applies.

How to Transfer A Ticket

If you transfer or sell your ticket, please follow these procedures:
1) Contact Melinda (via email ONLY, no PMs accepted) at [email protected]
2) Include the following:

  • Full name printed on ticket and the ticket ID number

3) If the transfer take place after August 26, 2014, Melinda will provide you with instructions for payment of the transfer fee. The ticket will not be transferred until the fee is paid.

I’m attending Round 1 in July so I won’t be attending Round 2.  But if you didn’t get a ticket for the July FTU Advanced, now’s your chance.
