Into LAX on 6R. We were out over the ocean, which is good or bad depending on perspective.

That's a rare approach for mid-day travel.

youch!!!

I try to keep the ERJs in the double-digits. Triple digits is just wrong.

Yeah....tell me about it. I'll soon hopefully have a little trinket reflecting my viewpoint (copa knows what I'm talkin' about)

Yup....you do! I mentioned Grease to Ms. GadFly and she said she'd absolutely be into it.

And it has been sent. :D

+1. I love my electronics and myriad forms of dubious-quality communication, but the hand-written note is irreplaceable at certain times.

Shame...this is by FAR the closest SPG property to my home (~15 mins) and you never see rates like that normally.

Via a live Facebook chat with tommy777: Devils-Blackhawks in Newark on 2 April. EWR PClub mini-Do after he arrives at 1543. Tickets are similar to Rotary tickets (i.e. middle tier) but he does not have details yet. Small quantity potentially available.

Oooohhh. That's Good Friday, which means that I will be trying to fly to DC, hopefully via EWR! Depending on what time my flight is, I could be up for some PC action...

I'll be single-handedly representing Louisiana at the party I'm going to...so my contributions may be limited to Abita and a large collection of Mardi Gras beads for everyone :p

So, I am at the US Air Envoy lounge at PHL. I have to say, this is pretty sweet.
If you never been, you should def check it sometime! The food is yummy, self serve wine bar is great, and the view is unbeatable! If only it weren't so grey and cloudy!

It's 5 pm, and not a flake on the ground yet! Looks like I am A-OK for wheels up at 6:25. Rio here we come!^

United is offloading baggage/cargo containers from my flight. Three gone so far. And now they are putting them back on in a different sequence. Seems perhaps a w&b issue??

My connection in HNL is only 90ish minutes. I hope they finish soon.

That's awesome. You will go down in CO forum history. Did you submit variations on it just in case?

Teh white nuisance is not far from you...newsradio in a car I parked said that Lancaster is getting the front edge of it.

On my way home I'm going to get a box of joe in-case of snow. I'm sure this will result in a paltry 3". It's a shame that it's DC that's getting it all. :rolleyes::mad:

Are you going to tell us what it is, or is it a secret?
