Thanks to all. You all definitely have opinions. Mikey, or anyone else in that area, any thoughts on CVG as an airport and town? I've only connected through there and most of those have been RJs from TUL. I hear its a great airport though I know nothing of life outside the DL terminal.

Since I'll miss the -40F/C winters and 7 hours of daylight November to March here in southwest Siberia so much, Anchorage is in the running as well. Well, not really.

A new desire in the equation is that it'd be great if the city was served by Lufthansa as well as I just learned I can get into Novosibirsk through Frankfurt (via a LH/S7 agreement) and not have to mess with our favorite future SkyTeam airport - SVO!

Thanks to all. ANY further insights will be/are much appreciated.
