Security was a pain in BOS this afternoon. They were putting everyone through the MMW machines.
Congrats Baliktad. You beat me to MVPG. My qualifying flight isn't until May 8th. I would have made it on my trip next week but had to book todays trip using points.

Thanks CDKing, I thought you might have been ahead of me with all those BOS-PDX runs but I guess a slow steady pace every weekend was enough to clear 40K in ~3 months.
Anyone know if there's something going on in SAN this weekend? The late afternoon flights Sunday evening are completely sold out, and the first 2 flights Monday morning also just sold out today, in F and Y.
I'm on AS493 SAN-SEA departing 6:30AM Monday morning, and somehow I got booted out of 6C and dumped back in 21D.
F is sold out so no chance of an upgrade. I grabbed 14B but now considering whether middle exit row is better than a rear aisle seat.

given the recent issue over passengers bill of rights ideas and the recent tarmac waiting issue I dont forsee this happening with US carriers....I hope not anyhow but stranger things have passed courts before. There was actually a cocky male FA on a MQ flight of mine recently where he bashed the airline law requiring flights to turn back to a gate. He was actually using profanity and everything and saying how AA will just cancel more flights instead of going out on tarmac and risk having to turn around. Seems some airlines never have issues with this and didnt have to be told be the big brother what to do. Maybe AA should just get its act together and be respectful to passengers and actually try. I almost think AA is trying to tank the company so they can file and restructure. Their service has gone from a 4 to a -3 on a scale of 10 over the past few months

Breakfast at the BR?
I never fly early out of SEA, but does anyone know what time they start up the food/bev at the BR? It opens at 0500, but if one were to show up around then, would there be anything to eat? Is the pancake machine on then?
