Already decided I am not going. I am taking my trip to asia in either business or first, and skipping the DO.

Alright, I'm out. Hopefully I'll make it to HVN before traffic catches up with me.

Took a sick, cough, cough day and yep it's about perfect on my deck - except the neighbors have little kids.

Thank you, everyone. Now I don't feel so bad about buying those B-fares for our little trip to PHX to see some baseball next week :)

Very Cool!! I would like to work for a company with bonuses just to see how they work! I will say, I don't think the SO had any problem with the BFare booking!!

Good morning Box. Getting ready for PTY/MEX this weekend after a gig tonight. Trying to empty the DVR a bit before I leave since after landing back at JFK on Monday, I have ZFV-CLE-SDF and will be away most of the week for work.

Happy Friday and congrats on various milestones, promotions, etc.

Good Luck tonight and have a great second run at it!! How are the upgrades looking?

You could kinda do both. Do the star mega do and use miles from the DO and other flying for Asia!


I would like to announce that I have flights booked and interview set for next wednesday with Express Jet. YEA!!

So I have some good news to share with you all... the promotion came through (in writing), which brought with it a substantial raise :) And,in the same letter, I got the figure for the 2009 bonus - I was stunned at the amount (more than double what I was told it would be). All-in-all, a pretty good week in that regards. :)

And it looks like I'll be traveling to NJ at least for the next four weeks, so hopefully once I get into a groove, I'll see if we can arrange for drinks somewhere.

Happy Friday! :-:

Congrats!

Rough past 12 hours and playing catch-up isn't going to happen. Had a PHENOMENAL meal last night at a restaurant out in Bed-Stuy that is barely open. The fried chicken was a spiritual experience, and the three 750 bottles of Belgian brews went quite nicely with it. ^

Shouldn't be too bad...comparable to last year, I believe.

Thanks.....We're all cleared for the return already. JFK-PTY has 8+ empties so I'm not too worried about it. PTY-MEX only has one seat in F and the rest of the flight's packe so I'm not optimistic.

I believe you can't outright transfer them. You may have to check in for someone and then leave.

Rats. I'll have to call and find out, otherwise they will only be useful for someone who wants to visit Philadelphia or Princeton next weekend. I hate to make an offer that I can't follow through on. :mad:

I assume you mean PHL. I would guess you're not driving down here and then taking the train back up to Newark, and if the choo choo even runs between ZFV and the Midwest anymore -- which I don't think it does; it only goes as far as Pittsburgh -- it would take you probably 12 hours to get there.

My buddy says some of the spring dresses on the women are coming out in Center City.^ Wish I was there to see it!

Driving home past Villanova was fun, too.

Congratulations to COFlyerCLE!

PALM is down about 25% today based on some pretty awful sales and revenue projections. Yikes!

Oops....forgot a city in there....It's actually ZFV-EWR-CLE-SDF. I actually just booked a "choo choo" :D to the midwest and beyond. Just cashed in 50k Amtrak points for Ms. GadFly and I to go to Seattle at the end of April.
