none posted at usairways.com or on orbitz. Also have not received the email.

Am I being a bonehead (last time i posted, there was no esavers due to some holiday), or has anyone else gotten them yet?

Was this mentioned in last week's ESavers email maybe? If not, seems pretty boneheaded not to tell us that the schedule is being changed for this week ...

Don't think it was mentioned in last week's e-mail - but it is mentioned on the website - see http://www.usairways.com/promotions/index.htm . It does state they'll be available on Thursday. Maybe they're holding off out of respect for 9/11. If so, that's not a bad thing.

They are loaded into the system now... unfortunately, it doesn't look as generous as last weekend. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

Couldn't have said it better myself, although I couldn't resist. I caved. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

I'm thinking of heading from CLT to SAN this weekend - in the hopes that the mega bonuses will even work on an e-saver (did it work for y'all last weekend?). Anyone up for that?

NO! I can't ... I shouldn't ... I won't ...

IF I did, I'd take the early morning flight out on Saturday and the noon'ish flight back on Sunday ...

How do you guys see which e-savers are going to be offered? Are you just typing in your home city and then plugging in random destinations? Or is there a way you can get "the system" to pull up a list??

Geez, do we have to go through this every week?

You can search on Orbitz (http://www.orbitz.com/App/PrepareDealsContent?spotType=DealsHomePage) on the afternoon before the ESaver email is sent by departure city.

Possibly. I had a cheap ticket SAN-MDT and paid the change fee Friday night to fly SAN-PHL Saturday instead. The phone fare was slightly higher than the e-saver fare but so were the bonii. Or possibly it was the ticket's origins as a regular fare that did the trick.

Those are actually the same flights I had in mind - since I would then hop on Southwest to Las Vegas. Of course, all this is contingent on whether I can get a place in Vegas for Saturday night.

I decided to go for it - so anyone who wants to go, is welcome to join me on the jaunt from CLT to SAN. I'm taking the morning flight out on Saturday, and then the noonish flight back on Sunday. Upgrades are available as of now - so GP and CP should be o.k. - no idea if SPs will be able to upgrade. And, I'm heading over to Vegas too, so anyone planning on being there - let's grab dinner.

So why not build your own mileage run on 2 tickets. If the times work...do PHL-GSO then CLT-SAN....I haven't looked at the schedules, so I'm not sure if there would be enough time to make the GSO-CLT drive...or is there another esaver..GSO-CLT??
