Didn't think I'd hear his name here in the CO forum :D

UA's upgrade isn't that complicated :p

You can't beat CR1s and SWUs where you can confirm an upgrade at booking though. I truly miss those.

I love CO :)

Called CO regarding schedule change; kept AF segment, CO forced us into F DET-IAH even though no availability :)

I know someone already mentioned the dirtiest hotels list, but I'm not sure Hotel Carter in NYC was specifically mentioned. This has got to be one of the most disgusting hotels I have seen!

Check out the traveler's photos from TripAdvisor.

No, Rolov. They are pure chocolate.

I love Tim Tams, though, too. Had a lot of fun a couple of weeks ago in Oz doing the Tim Tam Slam! :D:D:D^^^

Very nice. However, WAW-ATH may violate the routing rules, as ATH is East of WAW.

Likewise MUC-CPH

Yeah, I thought of that. I have to find the patience to do it in the *A Tool and see if raises a flag. I want to see enough of a quantity of European cities that I don't want to burn the coupons or mileage to go into Africa were I to really do a trip like that.

Any of the IAH'ers ever heard of the "SR Law Group"? Offices are supposedly on #3 Riverway in Houston.

Don't get me wrong. There are advantages.

+1, but it allows me much more time for FT ;) and especially the b:rolleyes:x.

Your wish-list is still workable, just do IST-ATH-WAW-PRG-CPH-MUC-CDG to keep all your stopovers westbound...

Those are the things that ozstamps brings along to the OzFests. It appears to me that the Tim Tam Slam is designed to produce an even greater sugar high than will just eating them.

IMHO the 752 is a dream up front.

I don't mind the hours. I like that I can work them from anywhere in the world. That us the main benefit for me.

No kidding, especially on a daylight flight where you're not really trying to sleep. Great seats, great IFE, and with only 16 seats, nice and private up there.

An Original Complaint isn't going to have much detail, considering that substantial discovery hasn't even been conducted yet. I wouldn't expect too much good stuff to come out in the pleadings until the Plaintiffs start having to respond to MSJs.
