I would also get some sleep before the much later departure, which is also a consideration.

On the other hand, I'm still in the upgrade queue on the 757. Unless those already upgraded are mostly whizbangs watching the PDA site, some of them might take CO up on the offer, moving us up in the queue.

But I'd really like to know if CSR-initiated modifications can turn a CO.com booking into a non-CO.com booking.

I understand that - most of my MRs begin with "get up at 0300".

I just stay up. Will probably leave work at 1:30, leave for airport at 4, catch up on sleep in-flight.

I don't (because I physically can't) sleep while in transit - was a pain when I was a corporate trainer. That's why I heavily explore the food and beverage available in flight.

Is it me, Mel Tillis or FT? Because I can't see sh!t, can you? Didn't this happen last week?

Anyhow - is this heresy?? I don't want to get on a plane tomorrow!! Oh yes, it will buy me Plat until 2011.. but I still don't want to get up at 4:30 in the AM for a 5:30 flight to PDX. Arrgh. Wish my similarly looking relative was in town so I could send her instead.

Has happened at midnight eastern the past few days.

Morning Box. Flight over was surpringly good - the extra few inches makes a huge difference. Flight really was full...lots of weather misconnects who missed their TATL leg.

I think I slept, not too sure...screaming baby on and off combined with a schmuck who didn't get the message wheb his seat wouldn't recline.

World edition BB works exactly as advertised :D

Shower, fresh clothes, and find my fat a$$ an omelet or something.

No need for EQMs, MQMs, or any other Qs so as soon as I could get away from the desk today, I started my weekend by spending the afternoon at the pool. :)

Tomorrow is for the big, big pool across the street. :cool: No getting up at 3AM, no ATL, no EWR, no running thru AMS, no P Clubs, no Crown Rooms, nothing but sun and surf. :cool:

Great night out tonight. Met a couple Aussies and we drank until getting thrown out of my local place. Always a good time when my local woman throws me out. :D

I believe your booking is based upon where you paid for it. Here's hoping you'll get your bump in IAH.
