I'm sure you got a big Whiskey Tango Foxtrot followed by a few :rolleyes: when you announced you were going to Amsterdam with CO 1E on Friday too.

Not going to AMS is not an option.

Now is the time. The venerable A1 Thick n' Hearty Burger has made its reappearance. Goodness knows how long it will last, this time.

Sounds like a trip to IAH is in order. I could grab a Whataburger and a drive-thru daiquiri! :D

Definitely 19th Street, even though it appears dirty and gross.

Thanks. The only one in Lubbock I've ever been in is a relatively new one that's on either Quaker or Slide, just south of Loop 289. I'm pretty sure it's on Quaker, but it looks pretty new and clean.

My partner will be so thrilled. He loves that word when he's having a dull day at work. Me: "Hi honey, how's your day going?" Him: "Meh."

That sounds like the Hartmann "necessities" tour.


Also included is Frank's Bail Bonds, Puebla Bakery (for all your breakfast taco needs), and C&D scrap metal (for when you need that extra cash)

I'm not sure I have ever had an authentic breakfast taco either! :eek:

I figured that to be the case.

Kind of like missing CO Do IV. Not an option. ;)

Looks like I'm riding in Y to IAH from EWR in a couple of hours. At least it's a 762 and I've got an exit row aisle seat. But I so wanted that big BusinessFirst seat. :(

Unless PTY is in the cards :p. J.Edward didn't win the AMS draw, so it looks like he won't be sweet-talking Scott on my behalf for a waiver of change fees. :D

I'll be taking the EWR-IAH 762 gamble on a Wednesday morning next month... Probably one of the most rewarding EUAs in the system (second to a 752 transcon, of course).

The best feeling is when you leave the house and the pda site says you are flying on a 737, but then you get to the airport and check again, all of a sudden it is now listed as a 767 and you are number 2 on the list with lots of empties :)

Compared to a Brasilia, DH8's are better.

sbm12 and I saw a Whataburger in OKC last week. Though we opted not to try it a few hours before our flight. One of these days i'll get to one.

Yes. As long as the ticket was born on co.com, it does not matter whether you make changes to it over the phone. You could make 20 changes over the phone, and you would still receive 100% EQMs.

Interestingly, i had a ticket i booked through a corp TA and then changed on co.com. I got full miles for it without having to do anything. So, i'm thinking as long as co.com touches the res, you're good.

As folks have stated, not worth it. I have one, never use it and prefer my basic corkscrew over the rabbit.
