It sounds like the wine in F is quickly approaching 'plonk' level. I wonder if US would charge corkage if I brought my own.

Unfortunately it seems that way but at least one other N. Am. airline (AC) is worse. I guess US figures that most pax, even FC ones, don't really care about the quality of wines. The airline should consider getting strong fruity wines from unappreciated countries (like Argentina and Chile) instead of Californian fare which is overpriced.

I still do appreciate the service ones gets for FC on US as I was travelling on a very low fare and upgrades are cheap (maybe that's why service is being cut?)

As for the cut in the nuts with the post T/O drinks, my GF is actually quite glad that's gone. Too many calories and too filling in her opinion.

Yes, it is. Cheap and cheerful. Unfortunately it is so hard to get Cuban food, even bad, outside SE FL. I should try some of the ones in Little Havana next time I'm there.

Did you ever get the photos I emailed to you in RE:Marco Island?</font>
Yes, I did. Thanks. Our room was a few floors below yours, and the view was partialy obstructed by a tall palm.
