Thanks! That guy's an amateur, though. He shoulda sprung for the Cruzin Cooler.


Maybe they could race!

Yes, missed it. Not a bad price for roundtrip biz, though, especially given how much the Pound has plummeted.

There are otters too just not on SQ .

Good Morning Box.

Any places domestically that offers consistently good exchange rates for buying Euros, Pounds, etc.?

Now that the agents have been working with QIK Shares for a couple years a lot of the teething pains have gone away. When I defected, most East agents couldn't process simple transactions without a 90 minute call to the unHELPful Desk.

They've also padded their schedule so heavily that their operation runs "on-time" for the most part. Although I haven't set foot on one of their planes in almost two years and hope to never again, I think they might actually resemble an airline today.

There's also been a cleaning of the house in Tempe and a lot of the "drive this bus into the ground" Sr. Management have been escorted to their cars.

But, if all :rolleyes: breaks lose, you better hope you're not in PHiLthy.

(Happy Birthday.)

We're not allowed to serve those to Plus1's daughter. So do I hide the box in the pantry? Or serve everyone else those while I give her steel cut oats? :D

Send them to me :D

I hope everyone is enjoying the International Day of The Otter. I'll be celebrating with a nice big Belgian Ale after this evening's classes.

I'll be at vol de nuits tonight, one of the nicer Belgian beer bars in NYC, and will hoist one in your honor.

My PHL-STT-CLT flights over the weekend were actually okay. Nothing spectacular, but it wasn't the house of horrors I had feared.

One middle name won't cut it in Spanish. You're nobody unless you have at least three. :rolleyes:

Did you have one of the refurbished aircraft with newly-recovered leather seats in both F and Y? The F seats were actually nice.

My gold standard is Cinnamon Toast Crunch - Alpha Bits are nickel plating, but they do get the job done.

Australian Ice Cream. The chocolate-dipped Belgian Waffles smothered in Ice Cream and Toppings are phenomenal.

Thanks. I think that might serve as my arrival morning sugar rush to balance out the pre-boarding booze that will hopefully make me sleep.

I thought it was :rolleyes: - oops.

baglady, did you catch Castle last night? IMO it is getting to be one of the better shows on TV, and it (well, ok, she...can anyone say naughty hot?) has made Monday night something to look forward to...especially after watching my Devils get trounced last night.

Outbound was an international config 752 with Envoy up front and Leather in the back. I sat in the Y exit row, and the Significant Otter enjoyed the Envoy seat. I tried it out for about 5 mins, and it was pretty comfy. Better than CO's BF seat on the 752/767, IMO.

The way back was a 762 with the new lie-flat Envoy seats up front and leather in the back. Pitch seemed a bit tighter than on the 752 in Y (I tried out a normal row to stretch out and sleep for a while on the outbound, as the plane was empty). It was still okay, though.
