Nice job. From today's NYT:

"United, meanwhile, is starting to react to the severe drop-off in passenger traffic because of fears of the mysterious respiratory illness that has spread in Asia and reached into Canada. Joe Hopkins, a company spokesman, said yesterday that United was canceling its daily flight between Singapore and Hong Kong from April 7 to April 16 and April 22 to April 29. United has 18 percent of its seat capacity on Asian routes, and Hong Kong has been harder hit by fears of the disease than any other city.</font>
If I had read the NY Times today, I would have saved the 10 minutes it took me to find these cancelled flights But it was fun anyway, call me a weirdo ...

When once you have experienced being a 1K, you will forever fly the friendly skies with your eyes set on 100% mileage bonus and SWUs, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return, every year!
