I wouldn't know. :D

Anyways, I have little idea what I'm doing, but I have setup one route HKG-TPE. Will see how it goes. :D

I have a completly non :rolleyes: question - why does anybody rely on the plane having AV that works?

I never get on a plane without my portable DVD/iPod player. I don't have to worry about the AVOD not working, the AVOD not having anything I want to see, the airline having an equipment change and not having any AV, the wrong movie getting played, they have last month's movie that I've seen 4 times already, they just show some random awful movie or it's a Madea retrospective.

My movies, my TV shows, my music. It always works and it's easy to carry.

I would like to declare my manifesto

I am drunk.



That's it. That's all I got.

Beautiful, man, just beautiful. I am inspired!^

It is what I am here for.

The only thing I've seen that is off so far is the sky high cost of renting gates.

Not in the midst of a huge run at the craps table. I literally had to sprint for the restroom when shooter rolled a 7!

So you needed the diapers so you could crap more at craps?

I heard CO was showing a Madea retrospective on our flights both to/from PVG; you sure you want to take the DVD player and ipod? ;)

I remember when UA did Julia Roberts month for like four months (not exaggerating) and I had at least 8 int'l flights during that time. I like Notting Hill, but seeing it so many times, I was getting tired of it, let alone some of the other movies of hers I didn't like as well.

I don't think I keep any hotel affinity cards in my wallet. I have the numbers saved on my crackberry, so what's the point of carrying them other than Costanza'ing?

The sure cure for Costanza'ing.

His wallet was worse than the bulging one in the photo and when he hurt his back his dr. said GET RID OF THE WALLET! And he complains about my purse? :rolleyes:

I'd love to do Bethpage, but I'm not keen on sleeping in a car to do it. And you don't even want to hear Baglady's thoughts on automotive hotels.

I actually watched Stallone's "Driven" on an aircraft (whatever the name of the movie was, he was supp:rolleyes:sed t:rolleyes: be an F-1 driver) :rolleyes:

How dare you be unAmerican and plan properly.;) I've been dragging Walkman, Discman and iPods on planes for years to provide my own entertainment. Mainly because I've rarely had any entertainment on flights, well outside of watching people try to get into the lav.

I'm working toward gold now. My 87.5% upgrade rate thus far this year is unacceptable ...

On DL, I've been able to fairly reliably count on TCVs lately because the AVOD's not going to work :rolleyes:
