I know ORD and IAH well for INTL/DOM transfers but much so with EWR and IAD. Is GS likely to be of any more benefit at any of these xfr points?

Here are my choices:
I know other people have mentioned the FRA flight, but don’t entirely rule out MUC or LHR if the price isn’t too bad. Remember that LHR has the last remaining quality GS staff that have saved the day for me time and time again (I hope that’s still the case).

To prevent issues on the day of travel, I’d highly highly highly (did I say highly?) recommend taking a train for your intra-Europe connection. DB operates a train that’s ~3.5 hours to FRA. No bus to deal with and can often times be cheaper when booking so far in advance.

Anyone else looking forward to the FCO-DEN flights in May?
