I'm 99% sure those are the BBQ joints that are actually in IAH. I believe Pappa's is in E and Harlon's is in the Express terminal (B). Harlon's is the best in the airport, but pretty wiggidy whack by BBQ standards.

g'day box. Canada has released me from its icy clutches.

I'm the opposite. I don't want to leave SIN tonight and return to MN. 78-ish to 10 degrees is not a welcome shock. At least I have a gradual return with a stop in Seoul before I return to teh Tundra.

Yep, those are in the terminals. They're okay for airport barbecue but definitely wiggidy whack when compared to other options in the area.

Guess I am not seat worthy then! Opps!

Push for the overnight.
I call door seat in the back! Non-rev seats selected and hotel reserved in the Bay area!

The H is fare class.
The A14 is 14 Day advance purchase required.
The K is unknown.
The N means nonrefundable.

The teacher of our ticketing class said no one there knows what it means.

Gotcha. Well, for outside-the-airport dining, there was a drive-through place up at the SW corner of 59 and FM60 that was also a Pappas BBQ location at 703 FM 1960 West, Houston, TX 77090.
(281) 893-5711. Mackieman and I drove by it and he mentioned that it used to be the worst BBQ place ever (Luther's, I think), but due to its current affiliation that it might be marginally acceptable now.

But, I guess we'll have to officially call the IAH area a non-BBQ zone and be done with it.
