Hello, all! My name is Bill (alias is MUTiger86) and I'm a new FlyerTalk member. I have been a member of Mileage Plan for about 7 years, but only recently have I started travelling for business (again). As I live in Seattle and have been funneling all my credit card points to AS, I figured that my best choice would be the home town airline.
As far as travel goes, I recently took a position as a consultant for a national practice at Microsoft, so I will be travelling extensively for the foreseeable future. Most travel will be to the US, often on the east coast.
I look forward to chatting with you.

Hey, Beckoa, I see that you use multiple sites to track your flights. If you were to cut down to just one, which would you use? Just wondering...

Would any MVPGs be willing to check if there are any seats in row 6 open on my 8am BUR-SEA flight on Sunday for me? I can't see those until OLCI and I want to know if it's worth getting up early tomorrow to snag one at OLCI.

Thank you and thank you! I didn't even think of the dummy booking in full-Y trick. Seems painfully obvious now. 6A it is!

He started with FlightMemory and has been migrating to OpenFlights (which was started by a FlyerTalker). I plan to do a similar thing in the future. If I were starting from scratch, I'd go with OpenFlights.

Down the road I think it would be cool to order one of their maps (fligthmemory)... but it does take a wad o' $$$...
If you really want to 'waste time'
you can log your roads driven And now that I've visited Spain... guess I can make a visited countries
