Given the transition of CO to *A, the virtual takeover of the EU by the Luftwaffe, the ATI filing and competition from the NW/DL/KL/AF group, what do you foresee changing next fall in regards to TATL traffic? The recent addition of IAH-FRA is obviously the first step of many, but what else?

TATL Partners:

The LH Group: LH LX OS WW SN
LO

I'm considering declaring "shock and awe" on my system and having Wendy's chili for lunch. :eek:

I'm torn on the DO flights, too. I would love to find a creative routing but am not feeling all that motivated to do so. I'm thinking that I might just end up on the noon PHL flight, too. I'm sure I'll be in Y at this point, but that's fine. I've got plenty of CO Currency Coupons. What are the chances of getting a special catering allowance for the flight?? :D

I also may look at a one-way car rental to PHL from NYC. If there are enough of us and it is cheap enough it certainly is easier and faster than dealing with the bus and then the train. And I'm pretty sure that CO Fan will be on the same flights, too.

I definitely have more flexibility on the return flight but haven't found anything fun there either.

My food intake on YXE-MSP-IAH consisted of:

Two Airport Hot-Dogs at YXE
Two Tacos of Dubious Vintage at the Maui Tacos in MSP

Somehow, I survived.

Sometimes you just need to clean the pipes with a daisy cutter! After the polish dog I had for dinner at MDW on Sunday, I came darn close to a BK or Wendys run on Monday. Ughhh!

Beef Barley Soup use to be my weapon of choice, but the Security Council banned the use for cruelty to companion animals and significant others.

Someone over in the other room here decided to have milk with her tacos last night - :eek: - and I think there were a few Security Council violations.

My prized Beef and Turnip Stew (With Leeks and Parsnips added, for good measure), made from a thick red-wine and beef-stock base has been known to take it to Eleven.

Good lord! Did you need to install hand rails in your WC?!?! Much less a bidet to put out the fire?

Take my two year old Golden Retriever for a couple days and that will smell like roses. It gets so bad that he and his 11 year old brother leave the room with me wondering why until it wafts up to nose level.

I love Goldens. Best dogs ever. I think the fiancee has sold me on custom-ordering a Labradoodle once we're set up together. It's hilarious that they leave the room...my old dog would sit there and proudly bask in it.

Of the list of people on that flight, I think I'm the only one that's close enough to PHL to not get in on the car rental.
