My BWI-SEA pairing is showing zero in the back and 7 up front (no EUA's run yet - 3/5 flight) and the pair of flights that will still get me to SEA that night is zeroed across the board. Looks like even if they get to the point of volunteers that the only way I'll be able to go thru DTW.

Yep. Where else can I find a plumber (ssullivan) and a cook (his +1) bundled as a packaged deal. :p

Priceless! ^^

While I haven't yet had the pleasure of meeting +1 yet, I am sure he is a great guy as well.

Yeah, unfortunately there is no Mega-Millions sponsored MR for The Box today.

As I am not as experienced a flyer as everyone else here, I hope I can get some help planning the Box MR run when I win ^

That has always been a dream of mine - win the lottery and grab a huge group of friends for a party trip. Just tell them to bring their passports and a change of undies to the airport!

I just lit a fart in the UA Forum. Tee hee.

How about 50 of your closest friends exploring the world on this?

Party Flight!

When it's my dime, that's why I go to PHL. The fare typically has to be at least $75 cheaper from PHL than EWR to compensate for the pain factor.

I am the same way when its my dime. CAK, PIT, ERI and even CMH or DTW come in to play depending on the destination.

For me it is often so damn silly as well. Tagging on two segments and taking the same flights I would have taken out of CLE will often save me hundreds of dollars. I just will never understand it, but oh well.

I concluded MR's would be of no value to me if I won the lottery as I'd be a paid F passenger so EUA and elite access stuff would be meaningless for me on any non LCC. There would be no fun left in the MR game.

No, just more obscure dots and lines come in to play. :D

I don't get what is so painful about PHL other than the drive from certain parts of the Republik. Then again, I'm a non-status, non-lounge nobody, so the gate areas are all the same to me.

You just got that thing. :eek: I was about to bite the bullet and get one next week but I'm starting to hear about crashing happening in the past few days. :( I'm sure sbm12 would say you should have got it in white and not have any of these problems.
