FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

As I prefer fall/winter to summer and have a truckload of Hyatt points, I was considering visiting EZE for the first time in the May - July timeframe. Would spend the $600 on airfare.

BNA-ATL-EZE is a steal at $600, assuming you play it straight and go directly to ATL. If you mix in one of your six-segment specials, the trip becomes a criminally good deal on mile accrual.

If I was sitting in F and a 5-year-old who is almost as traveled as me broke out that line, I wouldn't bat an eye. Then again, I knew a 6-year-old boy who is now 18 who at that tender age griped to his mother about the traffic in MXP and said that it wasn't as bad as NYC. Her mother knows who she is, and she hasn't posted here recently.

Why wouldn't I try to find a way to throw some more segments / miles / elite bonuses in there? I could fly all day and then try to catch some sleep to/from EZE. Unfortunately, (SkyTeam partner) - like everyone else - only flies red-eyes on the route.

That's not unfortunate. Fly all day and time yourself to make the EZE flight. Then on the redeye back to the States, you'll be sleeping off your EZE buzz.

While I have never been there, I would like to nominate Long John Silver's as the most disgusting fast food restaurant.

Seafood at a fast food restaurant?? :confused::confused:

It also is one of the worst for you. I haven't eaten there in years; but it was the favorite of my best friend's at least through college.

There were a few South Jersey redneck families I grew up around that went to Florida for vacation and considered it real good eats. It's not so much disgusting as it is a true Kettle magnet. And I'm not talking about airline-status Kettles....I mean real honest-to-God across the board Kettles.

I think "Captain D's" might actually be a bit worse. :eek:

Keeping up the box expectations I see. I'm in NYC tomorrow. I should be done with the stuff I'm doing around 3 PM if anyone is up for anything.

All times are GMT -6. The time now is 2:22 am.
