Eh?

Don't we live like 20 miles from each other?

g'day box. In case anyone was confused: HHonors sucks. Attempting to swap out a Q3FN for points has resulted in over an hour on the phone and a conversation with a supervisor.

What the suck. :mad::mad::rolleyes:

He speaks in code. The DO fare would require a special side trip to the land of Maple Syrup in order to get that fare to price.

Morning Box.

Looking into my crystal ball, I foresee possible problems flying through IAH on Friday morning. Will need to keep a close eye on alternative routings...

I can beat that. Just had my record single stay Holiday Inn Express point posting — just over 37,000 points off a single three night stay booked by a client for $85/night, thanks to multiple stackable bonuses. The bad things were I had to stay in a Holiday Inn Express (and not a nice, newer one), and they're Priority Club points. But, with that kind of points earning, I'm not feeling too guilty about redeeming them for $250 pre-paid Amex hotel gift cards I can use anywhere. I use those for personal trips, stay where I want, and earn points since the hotel I'm staying at doesn't see it as a reward stay.

I may book teh AirBerlin 2 for 1 deal today (last day to book). Hard to sneeze at $350/person to MUC. Plus, new lines, dot and carrier.

You have fun with that.

There's not enough beer in SZG to make up for the pitch for me.

Is that even an option? I thought those were only good for a free night, and not exchangable for points.

Because of Alex?

The models keep showing it further and further south. I don't think either of the big two models have shown anything coming close to Houston.

Morning Box (from PHL, no less!) --

Does anyone happen to have, or know where one can find, a listing of IATA's eTicket numbering scheme for airlines?

001 = AA
<>
005 = CO
006 = DL
<>
012 = NW
<>
016 = UA
<>
037 = US
etc.

ALCO is sick. Sane people do not seriously contemplate booking 30" pitch for anything unless they're midgits.

From NYC I found a fare at $565 a/i going into MUC and out of SZG all on United. I would also need to book a trip to visit belynch in order to get that fare though.

My understanding was that UA did not fly their metal to SZG? Is it an LH share?
