Thanks seahunt! They seem to be pretty consitent with offering the last week of August. So if the pattern holds true it would probably be too late for us to take advantage if they offer it in '09 even with labor day being late. Bummer

Don't give up hope yet though - the UK Resident FD offer that recently came out for 2009 is for dates 8/2-10/3/09, which is a week + - before/after this years (2008) UK Res dates of 8/10-9/27/08.

So maybe the US Res FD 2009 will be a little earlier/later too
