Have been spoiled with deals in the past!

I have been spoiled with r/t ai to BCN for $240, FCO for $280, LHR for $353, NRT for $600+double miles all from NYC.

Now I can't justify spending double!

I have a pretty open vacation schedule, I can go anytime from now through next year...where are these deals?!

They're in the trick it thread if you can tolerate the high school boys who think they are Dan Brown talking in code. Happy hunting. Best to mostly lurk there and pick up what you need without engaging in the penis waving that seems to take place. Some great deals NYC-MAD and BCN very recently posted but they might be expired now. Just check every day or so until you find what you're looking for.

priorities

after giving it much thought, reading hundreds of pages to learn and "catch-up" would just be too much. It's bad enough that I'm reading that much for research lol.

perhaps another time...

thanks peach for showing me how to teach myself to fish!

I've tried to read into that thread about 5 times yet and it's just too much for me. Whenever I feel like I'm weird for spending so much time on FT I sneak overthere and feel completely normal again cos I've got no idea what's going on.

on the verge...

i was going to give up on it but I think i am beginning to understand it. also, from what i've read, AFWD did a piece on fishing that many people frowned upon. shortly after that piece, the technique stopped working. some say it was a coincidence though as it literally died after a few hours and the airlines couldn't have rectified it so quickly.
