"Mysterious" is a downright understatement. The "fuel dump", "kung-fu", and "orbiting the earth" references are driving me crazy.
If "Orbiting" is referencing the Orbitz flexible search function, that looks like a commercial version of the ITA QPX. And, I've gotten pretty good with that. But I can't come close to the fares he finds...What's he doing? Is he using QPX language inside of Orbitz?
I see that most of the fuels dump stuff seemed to be using non AA fares...until yesterday. I was willing to chalk it up to a nice to have but I fly AA so I can't have it and I'll just live without it. But now....arrrgggghhhh!
He's a magician. And, I'm just jealous.

Would I be correct in assuming that the "Third Strike" reference is, in fact, not a baseball reference? I'm thinking of ITA language and that maybe it's more "Turkey" related...
