True. And, the possibility of letting the S/O sit in and possibly get used to an International F seat scares me.

It is these times I wish we had a permanent quote thread to save little gems like this.

You should get some reservations at L'Albatros for your celebration.

Zach Bruell did an amazing job with the make over, the wine list is great, the food is yummy and at a good price point, and the fromagier was pretty talented.

We will check it out. Thanks for the tip - I hadn't heard about this place, likely because we don't often head up to Univ Circle.

I can book a table via OpenTable on my iPhone - so that's always a plus!

I believe they even fly an A300 on JFK-MIA from time to time. I wonder how long AA has flown the A300 in/out of SJU - I may have been on one back in the day. Must research...

Dewd, there's already "the photo" floating around out there. Don't give them any more ammo. :D

Yeah, I hear you. The same dog has a noticeable heart murmur that Dr. Test (real name Dr. Love actually) highly suggest a number of expensive tests and potential surgery. We love the dog and would in no way subject him to open heart surgery. Period.

A local breeders group had an OSU specialist on site during an event who gave free exams. His thoughts? Keep him active and let him live a happy life as this may only reduce his lifespan by a couple of years. We can live with that knowledge and gladly spend the $20 per visit to let him run around at doggy day care.

For you CLE folks, I highly suggest: http://www.themutthutt.com/

Life, as you know it, ends the moment a S/O sits in IF. Believe me...

Perhaps I should make sure we just stay in C - I have no problem with her getting used to that...

It is also a great place for happy hour drinks and cheese. I was very impressed with their BtG list for wine. In any event, give it a try as I think it is worth the hassle for you getting there from the south side.

In some way it begins as they has much less incentive to :rolleyes: you for mulling over a fun run someplace.

seems like a good business decision for some markets unable to handle a full plane of premium but needing some more lower cost options. However it sounds like that economy section is going to be CRAMMED full if they are taking out so few seats and putting in that many!

I'd get a second consultation from Dr. Spaceman.

Well given the added weight, I do not think we will see these birds doing TATL flights.
