I don't start water until I get home (although I also have a Brita in my office fridge). I start the day with a pot of coffee.

I would have been disappointed in myself if two 24 year olds couldn't drink a CRJ dry over 8 hours.

I put down an 8-cup pot before leaving the house as well.

Hmmmm.....that B-up is out there, just begging for me to book it. I have no desire to compute what time I would have to get up to make an 0545 LGA departure.

8,286 EQM at a shade over .05/mile for a day spent in F isn't too shabby. My concern is whether or not I can find a hotel and if I should book two of these on back-to-back days and then just ask for those days off. The first one would be another ~$170 out of pocket after voucher.

who's been to indonesia? SPG has some beautiful cat 1 properties there that can be had for a steal! combine that with a reward ticket and it's a vacation on the cheap!

BTW, I can't believe some of the what-look-to-be amazing resorts in that region that are category 1!

IIRC our resident expert on that part of the world is Claudi:rolleyes: 1E.

Hyatt also has four Category 1's (5,000 points) in Indonesia.

Will CO.com auto-upgrade me upon B-up purchase, or do I have to do something?

If the bucket is available, you should see a yellow U icon at the time of booking.

Which Starwood property in Puerto Vallarta?
 
WWTBD?

Sheraton or Westin in PVR? Both the same price.
