Someone needs to correct the agent in OMA.

Racism and sexism!

Car is all packed and I'm a puddle of sweat just getting ready. I'm sure the 90 degree beach temp:rolleyes: will not be a help tomorrow.

I couldn't help myself. I created two helpful posts in that thread.

Son just came home from football practice-they ended early. ^

The bad part: he gave me the blow by blow action of his barfing while running tires. yuck :eek:

:D good thing this stuff doesn't bother me. This might teach him not to eat just before practice.

Evening B:rolleyes:X. A busy and sleep deprived week-plus is now behind me so tying to catch up. I'm guessing I didn't miss much. ;)

I've not flown a US 734 in Y since they reduced the pitch in those either, but I came close last year. Their 733s are hell with 31" pitch, and those have the same seats as the 734s, so I can't imagine flying one of those planes.

The last time I found myself carelessly booked on a US 734, I went ahead and paid the fifty bucks or whatever they wanted for an upgrade. Small price to pay for the ability to breath.

I just went out and read it. On the AA board, that post would receive a far worse reception.

I managed to survive the workday. Now, to go home and work out.

I read down, past "250 flights in three years," wondering if that shouldn't give some status at least by segments, but came to a screeching halt at "The stewardess on board..."

I'll wait for the brief.

I haven't met a Park Hyatt I didn't like - this will probably be no exception.

Didn't spend a lot of time in Philly before they gave up that particular lie and shifted down out of the PH brand, I imagine.

It's a little early in the week to manage both, but if you give me a topic I promise to try my best. :p

Good afternoon Box...just got this :rolleyes: from a friend who's a F/A for the Legion of Doom:

Pax: "I am an elite customer I should be able to board the plane NOW!"
Friend: "But Ma'am I don't know where you intend to go since the plane isn't even here yet..."

Evening all

Currently in the Senator Lounge at IAD due to my friends at Commutaire dba CO Connection. The flight from IAD to CLE is currently 3.25 hours late but it is in the air (yea!!). The big question is whether it will fly to CLE tonight or if it gets cancelled. No help from the overworked GA so I gave up and came to LH and got dinner thanks to the lounge. Thanks to all for the info that got me here ^.

Been a heck of a day, starting out in Greensboro NC (added another city and airport to the list), but all the flights today have been FUBAR. Was suppose to get home at 6 PM, now who knows.

I have no idea why I agreed to fly Commutaire again since they did a number on me when they flew the CLE-JFK route and I swore to never fly them again. Really dumb but idiots need reinforcing. Anyway busy tracking the flight and will return to the gate when it lands or I get thrown out of the lounge. :p
