Well it didn't work out - wasn't a bad trip though - basically, i got upgraded to F on the way out & the way back (160 RT, in F both ways, can't complain!) & on the way back, I sat next to Vincent D'Nofrio (spelled wrong, i know - the detective from Law & Order) and we had to be diverted to syracuse for 5 hours because of the weather in EWR - missed the flights & had to spend the night in a hotel & caught an flight back this AM - I offered to be put on the list if need be & they didn't need any volunteers - there was only 1 empty seat on the plane - they were oversold by 4 according to the GA.
Oh well, maybe next time!
