You've never seen the show.

The producer(s) go through great pains to paint as terrible a picture as possible. Half the show is dedicated to the girls having breakdowns about how stressful it all is.

US and CO, can't use them.
DL, is forbidden from using them.

That only leaves UA.

I believe UA still has dormant PA authorities so they really have no need for them.

CO could always start EWR-GIG. :)

PHL-YVR sub-$300 a/i on UA.

Have fun. If someone knows how to use PB2 notification feel free to put this there. I lost it when it moved to the new site.

I have seen the show. I think their efforts to do just that are halfhearted at best.

I can haz the W Silicon Valley for $100 a night in Sept. Thoughts?

One of my favorite hotels, though it is near NOTHING.

It's on the bay, across the street from a state park where you can go chill. But getting there is annoying and you have to drive at least 20 minutes to anything.

Morning, all. I have a quick question that doesn't merit a thread:

My Mother-In-Law will be leaving on CO89 from EWR to PEK this Saturday. She's flying on my reward ticket, so her ticket shows CO/* G in Y. She speaks no English, so my wife and I want to make certain we see her on to the plane.

Would she have lounge access? I know that if I were flying on the same itinerary, I would. But, she's not an elite member, so the only CO G card that can be shown is my own.

I'm trying to figure out whether I can manage to get my MIL and myself (as her guest) in, and then buy a daypass for my wife. That way, we will all be able to pass security, spend some time with her at the airport before she leaves, and to make certain she gets on her way without difficulty.

I know I can buy some refundable tickets, but I'd prefer to avoid that route unless it's far easier than buying a daypass to the lounge.

Thoughts?

I would argue something totally different. Plead the no English thing and get gate passes.

The answer is very few. IIRC I posted a link to an AA earnings call where I think the JP Morgan analyst when to Arpy with a "Where's the beef" question.

Denial--not just a river in Egypt. With what wide bodies?

I concur with this statement.

Mackieman Jun 17, 2010 9:08 am

So it looks like we've got ALCO, PRGDiscoGal, colpuck, Flyer_70, Mr. Flyer_70, myself, Mrs. Mackie, ALCO's cousin, and five of my friends from the Houston area all going toobing next month.

Should be a good time. ^
