I ordered 6x762ER last night and started my 9th route out of DME.

Looks like I get to watch toilets flush backwards!

Brazil just called and informed me that as of thursday they are considered North America, they will migrating their toilets tonight during a scheduled maintenance.

I have found that seat count is not as important as range. DelNorTalia owns 8 763ER's, and I realized recently that I could have more planes and commanded more profit had I done more route analysis and not just maxed out the range because I could. Had I bought 762 or 762ER's originally, my route structure would be very different.

Did they give you the five-year or 90-day visa?

A five-year and I even forgot to ask.

I just checked in for my flight and I didn't get added to the upgrade list for EWR-IAH. Grrrr..

Every toilet I've used in the southern hemisphere was the kind where the water goes pretty much straight down the sides and out the back. There was no swirling involved, so I still think the swirling backwards thing is a myth.

So i've noticed.

I just got off the phone with the ESD and they thought it may be since I need to scan my passport. But I already did that, so she had no idea. It could be the verification of the visa.

But, interestingly, she said there are two waitlists. One for airport control and then the one we see. She said I was on the airport one. I'm not sure how much I believe this. sfogate any thoughts?

I thought the one we see is the airport list. The one we don't see is the regular EUA priority, which is still in play all the way up until the final EUA run at three hours before departure.

Don't. Every time I've been told this, it has I wasn't on ... any lists. :rolleyes:

I wish companies would get fined every time an employee gave a "convenient" answer instead of an honest one. :rolleyes:

I have been told that same line also.
