GUM-CNS & HNL-CNS Long Gone

The first time I flew to Australia was from HNL-CNS in First Class on a Continental DC-10-30 in November 1990. It was like two first class round trip tickets for 170,000 miles from Florida. The IAH-HNL flight was a 747. Great international first class service. Then in 2002 did the GUM-CNS for 80,000 miles each for an off peak business class tickets from Florida, using Northwest from DTW-NGO. From DC-10 to 737 to nothing. CO tried to charge 100,000 because CO was used, but explained to them a 737 is not First or BusinessFirst.
