There should be laws and regulations against such correspondence.

Maybe he had several comments but made only one suggestion.

I would have said that "Sky Club" is meant to be one word (i.e., "SkyClub") and not two.

Closer to 6 am but yeah, not enough time to get a hotel and pay for it on my own.

I think he's already paying though.. he just got stuck in an abnormally long cab line at LGA.. and he has to be in Weehawken very early on Sat to meet up with my parents.. perhaps I'm already even. :D

It looks like a 2-2 series.

Seems like a great trait of fruit flies is they appear to rapidly dissipate. Another 20 minutes or so, and I might not have to do any more cleaning at all.

Good night Box. See everyone tomorrow night. :-:

LOL!

Sadly I overlooked those thinks. I felt like I was getting a circular letter from the very people that should be answering my question. The question had to do with why SC (SkyClub or Sky Club) didn't give gate passes like other lounges do.

In the article I read reporting the complaint stats, the reporter asked a DL spokesperson, basically, why they sucked so bad and what they were going to do about it, and the answer was that complaints were handled in the order they were received.

I couldn't believe it. In fact, I posted it here.

You all have a great time this weekend. Keep us updated (like that won't happen!). :)

I do recall that. Very interesting!

I will be up late tonight so will look for the West Coast contingent over the next several hours.

I can't watch the news without swearing at the TV.

I just got home from work and will be decompressing somewhat, so I will likely be here to keep you company for a while.

I recall that article and that post. I got a real good laugh out of the analyst on the AA losses call (that which other companies refer to as an earnings call) ask about their future aircraft acquisitions. When AArpey pointed out FutureFly 2020 or whatever the hell it's called, the analyst said "Is that all you've got?"

Good evening from the middle of nowhere. I hope everyone has a great time this weekend!

Pet peeve of the day (in fact on many days) - No service after the meal in F. I hate having to ring the call button, but if no one is coming by for 30 mins. to see if anyone needs a freshened drink, that is :td:

I did notice the transition to UA is going well. There was duct tape in the bathroom used in a repair. :rolleyes:

No sleep last night and know I won't have much tomorrow night, so going to try and get some tonight. Night box!

Something that you and I and everyone else here who tends to give recognition to such things forgot was mention of 6/6/1944. Sixty six years ago my uncle and a few hundred thousand of his friends got ashore in Normandy, by today were at being shot at well inland, and they didn't stop until they met up with those thugs coming from the other direction.

They really were, as Brokow said, the Greatest Generation.
