FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

Hi Box. Checking in from the Emory University Hospital ER. My partner seems to have a kidney stone. On top of that, we had a flat tire on the freeway a few hours ago. Hell of a way to spend a Saturday night.

Whenever I've had an international flight ex-BKK, the satellite Royal Orchid lounges (there must be a dozen of them) have always been packed. However, Royal First lounge was one of the best lounge experiences I've had. ^

I tried to get that A300, but TG decided to swap us to a 772 and 744 instead. :( Oh well, I will always have the AA A306 which is close enough.

Yes, up front by virtue of a DL SWU, albeit in a domestic F seat.

Sorry to hear it. Just the thought of it is enough to work up a cold sweat.

DL runs them on ATL-LAX as well. I've had the displeasure of that plane on that route in Y. I don't recommend doing that.

I think it might be time for another trip that includes SIN and a stay at the St Regis SIN.

TG's birds are A300 B6s, as well... so if you've flown it on AA, you got the same type. B4s (the type CO used) are much harder to find, and there are only a handful of B2s still in service. The A310-200 is also a very difficult aircraft to find, these days. Transaero retired theirs. I was going to use some BD miles for a DME-HRG flight with them, but didn't get in on it in time.

All times are GMT -6. The time now is 3:45 am.
