Indeed, especially if it's coming from Hahn. The US left Rhein-Main several years ago.

Russian coach being thrown under the bus for mismanagement.

In addition to getting lit up for only releasing his players to the Russian media...sounds like the Coach is on his way to an appointment at a quiet dacha in the hills with Sergei and Yevgeny.

You are a good fiance!

Awwww, thanks. I'm going to add her as a companion in Philly and see if the GA can list her for the segment so I can get myself up there too.

Such a busy month for those two. Herr Yes will need to consider giving them a bonus. :-:

Very strange that they've got a spare 772 for that but not for IAH-LHR. I wonder if the feds have basically called in their Civil Reserve Air Fleet debts.

Hmmm. 11/16 seats in F open on IAH-SJC with the Golds already processed. Maybe if I luck out and get a good GA in Philly the companion will clear too.

By the way, a data point for the class: I did get an EUA after splitting my fiancee off the PNR. If there were reports of split-record shenanigans as some had believed, it didn't happen to me.

Debts? Were the airlines not living up to their end of the deal on CRAF?

Calling them into service in exchange for subsidies previously paid. Does that sound better?

Got it now. :-:

I was thinking that the airlines had told the DoD Is Not Possible or something along those lines.

I find that I am better able to speak foreign languages when slightly drunk. Apparently, being hungover helps, too, if the results of my French placement test in college are any indication.

If you score a Gold companion upgrade, be sure to buy a lottery ticket as soon as you get to SJC. :D

Anyone read the Randy profile at the top of the TalkMail newsletter? That picture he gave to Forbes has to be at least 10 years old.

Good point - might want to wait until you get back to IAH or PHL. :)

This Branson AirExpress idea sounds intriguing. I may have to give HOU-BKG a try.

I will never buy real estate in NJ again. We didnt close today and the attorney is not sure if we will be able to close on Monday. He told me we would probably be able to move our stuff in but we cant live there until we close so looks like we are living in a hotel for at least a few days.:mad::mad::mad:
