FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

I have so many acquaintances that question me why I don't fly to MSY on WN. They are genuinely shocked when I tell them that CO matches WN prices on IAH-MSY (and many other routes) $ for $.

Also of note: *W just launched a worldwide half off sale.

Seems like everyone's desperate for cash.

Morning, Box. Does it say anywhere in the CO.com car rental pages that you automatically forfeit your right to rewards from the rental company? I just spent 15 minutes on the phone with a Thrifty CSR, who despite being very nice, was also insistent that I gave my FFP# at the rental counter. That never happened. :rolleyes: Anyhoo, that rental put me over the top for a free day, so I imght hold on to it for fiancee usage, or I might use it to help in the justification of attending a future Do.

One wonders if there might be a better way to achieve a cash infusion without prostrating yourself to your customers.

Larry and Jeff are waiting for you at IAH with your reward... a nice Y ticket on EK IAH-DXB-SYD. Apparently, you left your :rolleyes: at the NZ lounge there.

Hmmm - this is definitely worth investigating!

The UA board is about to experience a warp-core breach due to AA's DEQM promo...have your popcorn ready...

I don't have time to follow that disaster of a forum.

Heh. Nothing says classy like a velour track-suit 1/4 unzipped at the top. Extra points if "Juicy" is tagged across the bum of some she-hippo.

CO Forum seems to have lots of stickies at the moment. :rolleyes:

Definitely a significant chance of encountering that, plus bowling jackets and other assorted goodies, on a LAS-CLE flight.
