Hey Hyatt freaks. I'm going to burn a Plat. extra cert. this weekend. I'll be with teh Canuck. Generally what's the best amenity to choose at a full service Hyatt? The F+B amenity (what is it generally wine and fruit?), or the Regency Club upgrade (do they have free drinks and brekkie)?

I would go with the points.

JJ. I've flown both JJ and G3 before, so would rather just earn miles on my paid flights. Only other semi-realistic option for a new carrier was Avianca Brasil (formerly Ocean Air), but it involved a transfer to SDU and three connections, for a lot more $$$ than my one-way GIG-SSA-REC flights.

Me (after failing miserable at gettting the system to recognize my spoken PNR):

I can't remember, but I think I might've use the phonetic alphabet with the IVR system once. I use it by default with phone agents.

As one of my colleagues just pointed out that I look like warmed over death today, I am going home.

Fun in the back yard today...I am rebuilding a planter box and scrubbing the algae of my deck. Good times. I am, however, noticing that my beer fridge outside - which has been gone for ~4 years now - would be really nice to have today.

At the rate pricing/costs of operations in India are increasing, we may see more call centers migrate back to the US (or relocate to places like the Philippines).

^ Perhaps Smisek will consider keeping CO call (US based) centers when the merger happens as well.
