As a former pilot who volunteered my time and aircraft to fly doctors and dentists to Mexico etc. to treat the underprivileged, I can tell you that most organizations like Angel Flight etc. are set up to see that patients can get to appropriate treatment and not to reunions. They are on volunteer time and donations just like us. As a rule they have more demand than they can handle. Given that, I think that using their resources to ferry individuals to a reunion for survivors may not get them the type of publicity that they are looking for, or which generates needed donations for their really important work, getting patients to treatment.

As to a location, I would go to the Mendocino coast in a heartbeat. But for those who like the action and shows of a Vegas venue it would seem too
