At the least I know you're not talking about me, I've been on enough bad behavior to not warrant a wonderful all-expenses paid for vacation away from FlyerTalkville and teh Box!I'm curious if anyone here had the choice to go on LX F (New) or LH F on the A340 what would you go for?
The above is too

Teh Madre de Copa might start to think this mileage running thing is easy. Her change of planes in IAH this morning stayed within C South, and 559 is running 18 minutes late, while the inbound operating 420 for her to start back East is 11 minutes late. And she did clear on 1776, unless there is another SCH, N. on the flight...would be hilarious if that were the case.

Two things on this. One the vouchers have to be redeemed at the airport. Major downfall of the UA system. This is one area that DL has done very well. Like CO you can redeem all DL vouchers online but in addition, DL puts your vouchers into your DL account online. Makes it easier to use and keep track of in my opinion. Hopefully the CO system will come out of the merger as UA vouchers have no residual value although you can use thhem as $100 checks essentially.
To the original routing credit. I think you need to get the UA form for miles credit that they have and turn into UA and then ask CO to get the original routing credit. I am still having issues with 2,000 miles from November when UA re-routed me. UGH!

It's 30F in Lawrence, but very icy! 
Right now, IMO the most interesting destination in Europe is Berlin. There is so much to see and so much to do there you will want to go back again and again.
Some of us from Teh Box had a wonderful long weekend there at Thanksgiving and there are a few things that you should know so PM if you are interested.

Thanks EVERYONE! Changing my Africa Reward ticket from LH to LX in LX F on the A340 JNB-ZRH.
And FS, I am still on your FRA-SFO...are you keeping that date or changing it? I checked LH on Saturday and it was still listed as a 744?
And...WX Waiver...AGAIN????

It just struck me that 420 could be one of those flight number jokes...SoCal...

I'll give 1K a call to check availability. Keeping my fingers crossed!
A fourth from me. Grand Hyatt Berlin... one of the best places I've stayed... well, okay, it pales when compared to Lizard Island http://www.lizardisland.com.au/
but hey, Berlin is great.
