In DEN today, saw HAW/K and FAR/T on a board in the B-80s. The little boy in me giggled on the inside. On my board across the way, Mrs. RD showed up as REE/K. Heh hehs proceeded from my face, but she was unimpressed. Our upgrade cleared. ^

In October on the u/g list ORD-HKG , the person at #3 was
NEV/A
I hope their upgrades clear more frequently than their abbrev suggests
They missed that one. I was #2 and my abbrev is EVA/N, I heard the GA tell some one there were only 2 seats available, and at first glance I thought I was #3

Sitting at the gate in IAD
Waiting for UA 403 this morning. On the upgrade/standby list were: DUP/E and BEN/D.
That sounds like one of those really annoying 'wacky' FM morning drive-time shows.

Folks, making up names that result in crude and vulgar abbreviations are both inappropriate and off-topic (We've had to delete a few posts as a result). It's up to you if this thread remains open or not...

Travelled with my boss back from ORD. He was CRA/P on the screen, but not so bad in real life.
