Mr. Smith, do you not not recall the stories about an in-flight Do and Cow?? He tries to blame others, but it all started with a Coke Zero "incident"!!

Having never been to LAS I would be very interested, but I will be in TPA to watch the Flames that day. If anyone will be in TPA that weekend I have a couple of extra tickets to the Flames vs Lightning game.

I don't know how long I'll wait, but I need to confirm with the rest of the herd so I can at least get a count. And if the calf is coming, I need to do some more research on United upgrades, since I'm fairly confident we can clear, which means I might not book F.

Thinking about coming myself but my life will be so much better going out of SJC than SFO.

If you guys want to do SJC-LAS, go ahead. YYC-YVR-SJC-LAS might be a bit too much for me though

SJC is useless to me. OAK maybe. But I'm not going south of SFO.

You have JPM RC or another Visa Infinite Air discount card? SFO-LAS is practically a BOGO with it if you're going as two and booking in economy.

I'll take a peek at that, but I'm not flying Y. I may book it, but I'm not flying it.

I'm not sure if it works anymore but for UA in the past you could book with the Visa discount then call UA and do a GG BUYUP to just pay the fare difference to the cheapest P or Z fare.
