Perhaps I'll meet you at the gate- assuming you make the flight and not bump- but we can finalize as we get closer to then...
golfingboy--beckoa actually [gasp!] considered--however briefly--enabling texting simply for the duration of your potential meetup in JFK.

Well in SLM at the moment- had a nice walking tour of the city... about 3 hours

Departure on DL126 was delayed 2 hours... but those of us in biz had a skyclub directly above the gate to help cope with the delay
