How about any time we board a flight with someone in 1b, we just start a conversation with "Phil". The poor guy can claim to not be "Phil" all he wants.:rolleyes: The random possibilities and outcomes are endless.

Absolutely. Also, our plane might have more than 1 aisle.

Seth will of course have to stay behind door 2;)

So will this top the CO IV DO?? Will be hard, but from what I have heard from LH, I think we can. :)

There is some sort of private museum downstairs in FRA , it is a private collection of Rare Airline memorabilia , It would be cool to visit that as well .
The guy who runs it donated some of his things to the official LH museum ,
I read about this in the LH magazine once but can't find any info about it .

You also have to give him a mini bottle of Van Gogh expresso vodka like I had gbryan84 do

ETA: I just checked in to my flight tomorrow and 1A was open , I took it just in case Phil is on my flight.

What carrier DOES provide a J product that allows someone that tall to lie flat without being crowded in?

Hmmm...the Tommy Do would be 10,553 EQM if it were creditable, and I found a way to PHL-CLE-FLL-EWR-PHL for Christmas...this is the first year that I have a true outside shot at Silver if the yob thing happens.

Me included. I almost did for LHR-BRU, but I wanted to fly out of LCY and into LUX so that wasn't an option. :(

Wait. Does J mean AC with business as the top tier class, or can it refer to any business class seat, including those that have Intl-F (or is that C)? :confused::rolleyes:

No wonder it takes a long time to figure this sh!t out. :p:rolleyes:

tommy777 Feb 10, 2009 12:13 pm

I haven't flown BMI since becoming Gold. Flying them LHR-MAN-LHR March 20-23rd, lets see if they will give me free food and booze

As a person who has flown bd six times, I object to people using the luggage tags who have never flown bmi. Only rolov is allowed to use the tags.

Otherwise you will be subjected to epic :rolleyes:

:p :p :p

There is layflat at an angle, and then layflat at 180 degrees. Many J products at an angle work for a 6'6" person - I would say NW, KE to name a few - but at an angle.

To go 180 degrees, I do not think it is possible with 55-inch pitch. Your feet have to fit in a space below the arm rests. 60-inch is better to attempt this for tall people.
