I'm leaving today for two weeks to get married! Since this is the US forum I must be prudent and point out that me and future mrs. geo will be flying US for our honeymoon in the Carribean.
And on 757's with pen marks and plastic cups!!!
BBB's cramping my style!!! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif
To my credit I was able to find cheap roach-like B-fares upgradable at the time of purchase. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/tongue.gif
Did I tell you we are using US catering for our reception? Everyone gets a Bistro Meal and wine in plastic cups! Maybe we should charge for them? Hmmmm. This will be a First Class affair I tell you! With a snack basket for the kids in the audience too! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif
See you guys in a few weeks. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/thumbsup.gif

Congratulations. Don't forget to remind the bartenders to stock plenty of green limes.

Congratulations.
That being said, I am disappointed that you did not choose a more - ummm - US Airways appropriate/Dividend Miles adventure for your honeymoon.
The following would have been much better than the Caribbean:

From those of us that are still happily single, all I can say is "What a life, without a wife!" http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Does the catering service include parading the meals table by table, only to announce 15 minutes later that all the meals are gone?

Or, more importantly, will they be half sandwiches or whole sandwiches?

Congrats to geo and the soon to be Mrs. geo. Rumour has it that a prenuptial was signed to allow continued MR and 6 segments routes to keep status. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
Actually I have met the better half and she tolerates thegeo and biggs beer and burger chats on the latest tips and FTer doings so she is a very understanding and a very gracious person. I think he sold her on the theory that he suffers through all the trips so they can fly FC to a Caribbean island that will remain unnamed except they will be 'jammin mon'. I just hope she will let geo come out and get a beer with me after they come back.

My sympathies to the poor misguided soul who can still save herself from this fate if she acts quickly -- I'm sure someone here would be willing to spring for a premium award to some quiet reflective place like seat 2a on a 3 segment Dash8 routing before it's too late...

Which would presumably result in crowded CLT-MSY flights in front for a few days http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif.
Congrats, Geo.

Quick Update-
I can confirm that geo did... did... did... DID IT!!! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif
However, I fear this means another Oregon Brewers' Festival with No Geo. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

Thank you for all the well wishes!
It was a grand success and it was good to see the smiling face of the chexfan in the crowd at the church and the reception. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
Here are all the answers to the US Airways related questions:
1. 757's to and from MBJ. All on time. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
2. m/m geo1005 like row 1 but I did not see any penmarks on the bulkhead.
3. Limes from DCA-CLT-MBJ were all green. Finlandia was the vodka.
4. Had wine on the way home so...
5. Cheese and crackers spotted at the US Club in CLT. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/thumbsup.gif
6. FA's were great on all flights.
Maybe biggs didn't send that e-mail to BBB about my honeymoon flights afterall? http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

Didn't want to do it because you never know about me being in the same situation next year. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif
Besides, I still want to get a beer and burger with you. Welcome back.
