Somewhat OMNI, but something you said TropicalFLyer struck a cord with me!

I just learned (for everyone's knowledge) that my genius company booked us all in Coach to London "to keep us all together" in one section plus saved the company a lot of money by booking on a sale fare.

U=A says because since It's a sale fare I can't use my miles to upgrade. So it's seven hours with two co-workers I'm not that sociable with -- hoping that that there are no children behind me to shoot off guns or kick the seat or scream or whine! Or intoxicated businessmen who pass out and snore.

If U-A is wrong then advise (I don't think so.)

I think I will try out my Priority Pass and
start drinking early. CATMAN
