Awwww....it is on CoEx ERJs so you should be familiar with the aircraft at least. :p

Morning, Box. Looks like about half the snow has melted. The 50 degree day with sunshine should take care of the rest of it in short order.

Gooooood :rolleyes:, box.

Time for a conference call. And an admission.

Forgive me, box, for I have sinned. I fed the trolls in the feet on bulkhead thread. :D

A good deal of our snow in NJ melted yesterday due to the pouring rain...but we're due to get some back tomorrow. I can't find a projection of exactly how many inches we're talking about here - just assorted reports of "heavy snow," "100% precipitation," and those dramatic map images people were sharing here yesterday...

One report I read said that people should prepare for this snow in the same manner as one would prepare for a Cat 1 hurricane.

For those following along with the on again, off again saga of sbm12's "bankruptcy" and inability to get the Schwab CC because they think I'm a deadbeat, I'm happy to report closure on the issue. I finally got approved yesterday. Helllllloooooo 0% FX. :D :D :D

She bought her family Business Select. (That's the only way you're getting an A-3 boarding pass.) It's her money...

Poor Shannon. Part of her job is to read about Box shenanigans.

That's akin to being paid to sit in a bar and listen to a bunch of random nutters all day long. It reminds me of a guy I met once on a train who worked for the makers of Bailey's doing market research: his job was to travel around the world, go to bars, and observe how people were drinking Bailey's.

I'm going to be hanging out at EWR praying for my flight to actually depart. Not normally how I've prepped for hurricanes, but it'll have to do. :rolleyes:

I don't recall if I asked before so I will ask. We are flying CO connecting UA in SFO. Do we need to re-clear security connecting to UA?

Yes. CO and UA are in different terminals but the walk (or tram ride) is painless.

Soon this will all be a seamless ride inside security.....there will be a mini-van to drive people making a CO to UA to CO connection. Of course when this will happen hasn't been answered but it is in the works.
