Put DFW-ORD-RIC on hold this morning. Seems 2320 has been sold out? Plan to purchase it this night when back home.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make the inaugural. Work decided I couldn't go. Congrats to all who got on!

Anyone interested in grabbing dinner the night before? I'm probably going to stay at the Grand Hyatt DFW and may be interested in a late-ish dinner. (I haven't booked my positioning flights yet, but will soon.)

Finally ticketed just now onto 2320. $174 all in including ORD-BOS connection
Not a bad deal.
