Two other passengers decided to join us in LH F from IAH-FRA. How dare they! :p
We're still the only two upstairs on FRA-JNB and JNB-FRA. ^ |

It isn't horrible. It's in a meh area of town, and the rooms aren't anything special (they didn't try very hard when they converted it from whatever it used to be before Katrina). The common areas are nice, but the rooms are uninspiring. You should get free breakfast coupons as a Plat, though. It isn't horrible, it just wouldn't be my first choice.
If you had booked the 4P by the airport, I would counsel avoidance, even on a prepaid stay. However, the Sheraton Metairie doesn't reach that level of :rolleyes: |

Sounds like we'll have to plan a follow-up Tubing DO. One of the benefits of a summer that lasts through October. :D

Hello from the E club in IAH. I was to late to get to the agent in PHL for a bump. They offered 300 to two passengers. Now the ANC flight is oversold by 8.
If there is a tubing DO count me in. ^ |

ALCO, have you stayed at the Sheraton New Orleans? Is the W French Quarter worth an extra $30 a night? At $199 and $229, I'm not really thrilled about either.
Since we will be arriving pretty late, we also have one night at the Sheraton Metairie. Have you stayed there? |

Looks like it's a little late for you, but FYI - I had a good experience at the other W New Orleans, on Poydras St. It's not at all far from the French Quarter, and (at least for the weekend I needed) it was competitively priced against the other SPG properties in town. |

W Poydras is my favorite SPG property in Nola, followed by teh Westin.
Does anyone know if SPG50s are worth anything at the Ws in New Orleans? |

If it wasn't for the $259+ price tag, the W Poydras would be my pick as well. I just can't justify spending that kind of money for a stopover on a move/long drive. Sadly, the Westin does not have any rooms available that weekend. :(

Save your cash and stay at the Sheraton N.O. The W FQ is one of my least favorite Ws, unless you get a carriage-house room w/jacuzzi tub in the backyard (they only have 2).
Avoid the Sheraton Metairie at all costs. The same applies for the 4P by the airport. |

They remodeled the 4P, it really isn't all that bad, price is usually right, the bar is fairly lively and shuttle is prompt

Morning, Box.

Shot in the dark: Does anyone in The Box have a Roku box that they have used with an MLB.TV subscription? I'm trying to figure out how I will get my Yankees fix in TX. :)
|
Howdy Box. :-:
First day back in the office since 04/23. :rolleyes: |
