FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

Yes, it was. I'm offloading pix now so I can use the memory cards again (took about 300 pix in 2.5 hours this morning :eek:) and will try to upload some shortly. The tuna auction is crazy in its own right, but the rest of the market is fun, too.

My flight is in 30 hours; I should be first in line for upgrade magic!

I got the email earlier informing me that:

We're sorry, but continental.com was unable to complete your request due to a technical problem.
Please try later or call 1-800-300-1547 for assistance.

The flight is only booked to 37, so I like my chances, but I have no idea what the waitlist looks like. I better not have to fight for it at NRT. That would really annoy me.

I would check you CO.Com account. My friend that got upgraded got the same email today and is now in BF instead of me!

Does anyone know if Peru charges an entry fee to U.S. Citizens?

No entry fee. $30.25 exit fee.

That sounds good! Sounds like quite a few are taking advantage of the $400+ SFO-LIM fare. I definately am March and over the summer. I haven't paid that in about 10 years.

I'll be around for a short layover; arriving at 6:15 (Terminal B) and departing at 7:05 (C or E).

Um, the Rio Grande is in Texas and New Mexico. :confused: Other than that, come on down, we've got plenty to do and eight local breweries to sample. ^

I cannot tell you how much I am craving sushi right now!

Sushi can be tasty, just not from the local lake here in Stilly!

BTW, CSI - NYC has an airline theme tonight!

Congrats.

For any of the box folk that are T-mobile customers. If you haven't heard, they've launched an unlimited minutes plan for $49.99. You have to be a customer for at least 22 months, but it's a heck of a deal.

I've yet to go over my minutes with T-Mobile but I think this might be a response to the new $2.99 Skype plan.

I went over once a few months ago and that was the first time in years.

But, I was on a 1500min $49.99 plan plus the $10 H@H add-on. So, this brings my cost down $10 and now I never have to worry about being over. :)

sfogate, I don't think I am going to see you this month!

I am doing a BWI trip this weekend, but out of SJC, and for the DUB trip, I am leaving on a morning flight, and arriving on Monday 3/30 around 8:00PM.

How am I to get my sfogate fix?!?!

We really have to stop meeting like this. ;)
I'll be at work on Monday 3/30 night. Are you coming in on CO40?

The NZ lounge is airside but it not easy to get to , because it is at a different terminal .
Besides that it is mostly RCC .
