FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

I think i'm going to redeem VS awards via ANA. There rewards for UC are only 63k for east coast to LHR and i have a stack of Amex MR points which i have yet to use.

^^^ This is a much better plan and how I would do it given the desire to actually redeem for UC to London. The only catch is that NH won't hold a reward while you are waiting for the points to transfer over so there is a bit of risk there.

Don't hold your breath. They take FOREVER to approve any updates.

Progress! Boarded, but we're being sent to (the real) penalty box for an hour. :rolleyes:

Any NYC boxers notice a resemblence between the Q400 and the new MTA trains?

I kind of guessed as such. I'm not about to go install 4.5 and then have them tell me that I need to buy a new phone if the install gets all :rolleyes: on me.

??? The Q400 says "Stand clear of the closing doors" too?

Don't panic! All of the printers ship with STARTER cartridges which contain very little ink.

The 6380 has 2 black ink cartridges available,the HP564 (about 250 pages) and the HP564XL (about 800 pages @ $25.00)

Be careful of cheap refills that void your warrantee

Just Google HP564 and HP 564XL and research away.

Thanks for your advice. I decided to go through co.com and click my way through to Best Buy and bought the 564XL there. Went to pick it up. A little miles added, and just a few bucks more than it would have cost for a re-manufactured version.

Hah! If they ever shut the door, I'll let you know. :rolleyes:

I think there's a homeless guy sitting in row 11 that's been riding the "ship" since SYR.

Note to self: this is why you take the DL Shuttle.

I did manage to get the FA to hang my coat. First class on a prop. Yeah!... :rolleyes:

Now that I think about it, NJ Transits new multi-level cars have the same color scheme as the Q400 cabin and on the lower level it feels like there is a luggage bin above you.

co.com still is unreliable and buggy with respect to searching for VS rewards. I always use the VS site when searching for VS availability.
