I'm going to try Orbitz tomorrow (per ALCO's instructions) and see what happens. Best to try and find UA flights that have A bucket availability. A six segment multi-city TPA-IAD, IAD-SFO, SFO-ONT (and the reverse) ought to do the trick. Be sure to select "Economy - Lowest Available," "Nonstop," and don't tick the "Star Alliance" box when completing the search via .bomb. If the A bucket is available on the F cabin segments, you should book into first on all segments except the TPA-IAD legs. |
US is now going to sell checked baggage fees/chit online. And charge an extra $5 "service fee" if you buy them at the airport. Race to the bottom, anyone? :rolleyes:

My first time seeing Jimmy Kimmel in a while. He's finally in HD.^ Took 'em forever. But, of course, the ABC owned & operated stations are adding another HD channel (.2 on antenna systems), to further degrade their 720p picture.:rolleyes:

Being that so many people seem happy to watch a highly compressed analog signal stretched to 16:9, they won't notice the difference.

It's like the flat screen TV at the Courtyard I stayed at. It was 16:9 analog stretch-o-vision. Yuck. I would have preferred the old 4:3 analog tube TV.

Who came in first and second?
Let me guess: Singapore and Virgin. I have also heard very good things about SQ also and I am looking forward to flying them ones we join *A. if I can find a decent business class fare to HKG I will try them. My comfort is worth paying a little extra for 32 hours of flying. I tried the new bf seat and did not fit comfortably in it at all. At nearly 6’5” it was a no go for me |
As usual, I am the only sucker up at 0230 hours….. :rolleyes:

W = Wrong. @:-) |
I am guessing with *G next year I can save myself $400 on a pc memberhsip. :)
