This would have been a great time for one of those "weekend getaway" 15K miles+$36 deals...unfortunately, this weekend I can go from EWR to all sorts of far-flung places like YYZ, DAY, GSP, etc. - but not a simple 201 miles up the road. :rolleyes:

And honestly, at this point, the travel time would probably be quite close to equal... drive to Princeton Junction/train to EWR/waiting at the airport/1.5 hr flight/subway from BOS to Cambridge=easily 4 hours, and it's about a 4.5 hour drive if you avoid bad rush hour times. NOT worth the $191, in my book.

There's also the bus idea, though. Looks like I can do either Peter Pan or Bolt Bus for a total of about $60 (including the $20 r/t to get to Penn Station) which would make it about a 5.5 hour trip, but I could sleep/work...hmmmm.

Any opinions on the NYC/Boston bus options? I've taken a grand total of ONE in my life, and it was back in 2002...

Good morning box.

Pimpslap air is selling their last 752 if anyone wants it...Yup Cmike does.

That 752 wasn't the long-range engine variant, but I had two TATL routes that didn't need the legs. Thanks to Pimpslap, I have two surplus long-range 752's. Question is what to do with them.
