My water comes from the Ohio River. I live halfway between the Allegheny and Ohio, and they chose the Ohio :rolleyes:

In fact it's from Neville Island, which is the second most polluted place in the area after Clairton. And it's about a mile downstream from the sewer plant discharge. Brilliant.

I think I'd prefer a Germany win. Would rather not face them in the next match.

I knew MRs would be pretty terrible out of this area. Not good when I'm already pretty far behind on travel this year. It's going to be a busy 2nd half...

No more $200 transcons for you. Soon you'll see why I was doing IAH-FRA-wherever segments in whY on LH 744s. :-:

Yes, DCA-SFO was just one of the many recent reminders that my days of low CPM mileage runs are (mostly) gone. :(

I'm sure there will be many more desperation purchases in the coming weeks.

Once in Teh Pit, the controlling metric becomes CPIL. :D

Forgot who was asking about LGA-IAH-SJC mileage runs but I just booked another one on Dec 4, same day turn.

Also, just bought 4 - $250 UA vouchers from my co-worker for $600. She was thrilled to get that much and I think its a pretty good deal for me too.

Works for me. Moving to a new area gives me lots of opportunities to build up new lines!

Should we start referring to these trips as line runs rather than mileage runs?

Indeed. The best part is: you can line run on reward tickets.

This is true - my upcoming reward will yield 10 new lines. ^
