My life is short hops and without the leisure trips, my average would probably be about 500 or even less.

Even four Transpacs and maybe two dozen Transats and 50 Transcons would not have that much effect on a portfolio of about 3000 flights where the 285+/- mile DCA Shuttle is probably the one most flown route.

yeah, yeah, but it just seems so wrong :rolleyes:

Well in about an hour I will be done with my 12 hour shift ^ then its off to PHL for my PHL-IAH-SNA-IAH-PHL run. My last leg is IAH-PHL 1776. Seat counter is showing 0 and CO is not selling any tickets so a bump would be nice!

Not really. I've only lived in a few places: San Francisco, St. Louis, San Juan Puerto Rico, Honolulu and Gaithersburg MD. And now I'm back in San Francisco.

In many ways I'm glad for the experience that I received living in such different places but in other ways I wish I had stayed in one place to have developed life long close friends.

And no I wasn't a military brat, just had a father that changed jobs a few times.

G'night Box. I am exhausted from the demo I finished in the master bath. We got all the nasty 50's pink tile.

You, me and Olton Hall all have pink master bathrooms. :td: How funny is that.

For my JFK-PTY_MEX Boxers we have another person on our PTY-MEX-PTY flights. He will be coming in from LAX at the same time we get in. I assume that we can be placed in transist to get to the lounge and drop our things and then go out in PTY correct?

My crystal ball says, "Bump looks good if you are traveling back to PHL on the 18th." Good luck.

California is strange. Most people here have been here forever and don't stray too far from their elementary/high school buddies whereas the other places I have lived are much more open to making new friends and/or including them into their circle of friends.

I used to be a VFF on CO1776. There were bump opportunities galore. I couldn't take advantage as I usually had to be at work the next morning. I wonder if the "'Box 8-ball" can help. ;)
