The number one thing I look forward upon my return to YYZ is UBER POOL

Booked for six people, @JordanYVR, can you please let me know if you will be showing up?
hey Jack,

Will most likely swing by around 1:30-1:40 for a while, as long as there is space.

See you all tomorrow!

p.s. when will Uber work in Vancouver?
Now that we've gotten rid of the "free enterprise" party and replaced it with a coalition of the left wing and environmentalists, some time this year.

Hey Jordan, I booked an extra seat, so should be good

Just saw @capedreamer at SFO.

I tried to convince him to SDC.

Security is really long and I'm legitimately worried about making my flight.

I’m 5 spots behind @canadiancow in the Precheck line. I have never seen SFO like this before. What a zoo!

Does he have to SDC or can he go on standby at SFO? I don't think I've ever flown AC there.
Good luck guys! See you in a few hours.

No, he would have to SDC because he'd be going from SFO-YYZ to SFO-YVR-YYZ, and you can't stand by for a connecting itinerary.

Anyway, through some awesome coordination, I made it. Last one on board, FF before I took my seat, door closed shortly after.

7 empties in J, so I have 2AC.

​​See y'all soon.

Ah didn't realise he's headed to YYZ. Now in LGA I can usually get on standby for any earlier flight, even if it means hanging out in YYZ - but that's a special place
see you soon!

Hehe. Yeah...heading to GRU via YYZ. Incidentally, I am on a Latitude fare for the SFO-YYZ leg.

Glad to hear you made it, @canadiancow!

That is quite a route to get to GRU! Catch you next time perhaps!

Alternative connection points included JFK and ATL...not significantly shorter.

and i would avoid both JFK and ATL at ALL costs
I thought United had something via IAH but that might be only to GIG.

Technically, you're on a PY fare that books into B on the transcon. There's a difference

I hope you enjoy your flights. And I hope you made it into a decent lounge (i.e. anything other than a UC).
