And at the moment, that site is featuring a CO BusinessFirst IAH-NRT dinner service photo on its front page.
Yes, I am aware, but my wife thinks I'm crazy because of all the time I spend on FT. Then there is pprune.org and on and on. All I need to do is start looking at airlinemeals.net and she'll know for sure I've lost it:)

But I will check out the link you provided :)

CO Insider is 35? :eek:

LOL Nice article, and some well-deserved publicity! Thanks, Mr. Xyzzy for rubbing in the MSP-LGW fare to those of us who couldn't take advantage of it. ;)

Thanks Everyone. This is just as much a tribute to all of you. You’re definitely moving the dial here at Continental.

Bring it on, rkkwan. Bring it on!

I could see it easily happen for a group of 4, for 3 trips
Believe it or not, it was 12 tickets for a single traveler.

Not as many as I have of my child – at least until recently, anyway.

I prefer the term ‘enthusiast’…

That's what happens when you prioritize work...or school for that matter... above frivolous travels! :p :D :D

^ to Scott for putting up with us :)

Heresy! Nothing will stand between me and my frivolous excursions. Why spend the weekend in this foul cesspit when AMS is just 9 hours away :p

Cesspits are in the eyes of the beholder. During my 12 hour layover in AMS the other day I saw a fitting T-shirt. It was done in the style of the London Underground shirts. It said, "Centraal Station -- mind the crap." :eek:

Not really. He couldn't run again because of term limits.

Man, that T-Shirt really hit the nail on the head. What a horrible first image of AMS for all those folks arriving by train. Although, if you're coming to AMS for free-an-easy drug culture, it's a fitting place to start. :td:

Nice article, very interesting to get some inside scoop on the Insider. However, I believe we are now in for a worrying number of new posters who will join FT to complain and hope to get all their problems resolved by CO Insider. I've seen two already this morning...

I hope you're wrong, but am afraid you're right. :(

This is an awesome article. Congrats Scott and thanks for all your effort and to the management at CO for supporting it.

gbryan84 Jun 13, 2007 6:37 pm
Great article. I am a little jealous though. Scott gets paid to do this while I (and most of you) spend at least an hour a day doing it for fun. :D
