No in flight power for any of the 737 flights meaning I may finally get to read a book as my laptop won't charge sufficiently in the ANC turn-around time. LGA-IAH-SEA-ANC-SEA-IAH-LGA and 28+ hours of travel time..

No way I'd schlep BOS-EWR to get this started so I guess the DL/US shuttle it is which is going to add some to the cost per mile but I'm not anticipating a lot of travel in '08 so I may as well get started early.

And if you're really interested, the same deal was around in 2005 for about $70 less. See here.
Why would you go through SEA? certainly not for the miles?? better aircraft/timings? considering doing one of these myself
