I'll do my best to make some productive contributions to these forums rather than just whine. :-)

A friend that does LAS-TUS-LAS weekly opined recently that "fares are way up in the past few years". Well duh.

He also reports that his run has gradually dropped to only 4 legs a day (not sure how many there used to be, but apparently more than that). Yet another factual report of how the smaller stations/shorter routes keep getting nipped-at so as to (presumably) grow the longer/more profitable routes.

As for whining, well....that's what we DO here is whine. Well, at least some of the people some of the time

Please report back on your trip and let us know how it goes (timeliness, etc.)
