Well said. If you thought the it was Threadapalooza when CO joined Star, get ready for enough loose threads to make yourself a sweater over the next year or so.

FB is annoying me. I can't figure out how to see my "friends" list? It's easy to get to a page on how I can find more fiends my not the current list. :mad:

Look at my post count. I wanted to save the milestone for the right time, like a bottle of very old scotch. And, sure enough, I missed it by one.

And my link didn't post. It's been so long I can't even remember how to do it. Trying again.

There's no earthly reason for a fare like that to be able to be constructed. I'd feel like I robbed a bank if I flew that.

Traverse City, MI to Denver for as little as $70 round trip
I just booked four of these routing TVC-ORD-SFO-DEN-SFO-ORD-TVC. The fare still shows on Cheaptickets, United.com but will disappear quickly.

If you want a trip to Denver from Traverse City or Reverse, go to united .com now and search by price.

This will disappear in minutes if not already going away.

Given that it's AC miles (and I know nothing of Aeroplan) are you best served flying AC metal? That could make for PHL-Yxx-Europe. Not a disinteresting prospect.

! AC does not offer F to Europe. AC to Europe in C appears to be 85k miles.
