Okay... I just booked an award ticket with them from CMH to NYC and they charged me fuel surcharge three times... Unbelievable! I thought it was supposed to be free... But, they said enroute they would have to refuel three times. Oh well! I got my elite seat behind the driver... I shouldn't be complaining...

Now can someone come up with something quotable for TalkMail? We've been snubbed once, and once is enough!

CoUniHound Flight/trip = "fl-ip"
The last trip I took with CoUniHound, going AUS-DEN, we stopped in Armadillo so the BA's could re-fuel and pick up supplies at an all night diner. We were served pork rinds and a highly nutritious TAB soda. The BA's also picked up a small supply of paper bags. We were instructed to gently place these over our heads after carefully tearing out a mouth hole (they still haven't allowed safety scissors on these cross-country journeys). These were the BEST eye covers ever for our red eye flight/road trip! The best memory of that particular flight/trip or "fl-ip", was when they handed out a complimentary toothbrush for all of us to share. I remember it being really minty.

^Poor service, bad food, and rock bottom pricing on root canals. I can see the slogan now: Unitedental, we get you high before drilling you for all your money.

I'm waiting for the announcement of AC Transit's impending codeshare agreement as ConUniHound disConnection. The codeshare will begin with 45-stop service between OAK and RIC, offering our signature Bling Bling Service (tm) - 40-oz malt liquors in convenient paper bags, local mind-altering pharmaceuticals and 10 channels of thumping gangsta-rap on the in-bus entertainment system. Full-fare pax even get complimentary grillz!

Was this announced at the Do? I saw 5 full-size buses in a line pull out of IAH this morning. They were all painted as CoachUSA buses, but maybe they haven't had a chance to update the livery yet.

Oh dear, Catbert10 has gone and fed this thread Viagra, (presumably in the hope that it shall rise again).

I'll do a more comprehensive trip report later but wanted to report I did my first run on the combined carrier, HWD-CON-STK-STS-SAC-TVL-NUQ-RHV via mainline air and ground, mostly on Greyhound connection. The new carrier is a mileage runners dream, 8 segments in two days for $27.00!!!!. Would of been $19.47, but I bought my ticket at the counter instead of advance purchase. Most amazing part is all those miles without leaving Northern Cali!
I was mugged in Stockton & I seemed to end up sitting next to people who were convinced that aliens were controlling their thoughts, but all in all, a fun little mileage run!
