I am the anti-FT'er. But 100% :rolleyes:

I guess an anti-FT'er would go somewhere where the air carrier is out of their alliance and you can't spend/earn points on the hotels. :eek::o:rolleyes:

You have to wait until WN has a sale. Our recent PHL-SJC MR was on a $158 base fare -- $177 all in.

Let me just set the record straight. I will not be taking the train to Scranton for my honeymoon.

Thank you. That is all.

Duck Taco?

I just ate a chorizo burrito. I'm in love with those things.

But, you should look at the coverages & make sure.

Good luck!

Sorry, I meant to say that the station would pay me for 3 months of COBRA coverage, even though it is available for 18 months. So, they are willing to give me 4 weeks of my pay and $$ = 3 months worth of COBRA coverage.

I have put in a call to to find out, but the cell coverage in the convention center is :rolleyes:

How far from AC are you?

If we end up being free, I will shoot you a pm.

I'm about 25 minutes north. No sweat for me to come down. My plans for tonight are still not set either, but if tonight is no good, tomorrow is OK too.

we leave about 3p tomorrow, but lunch is a possibility. I will let you know.

That makes sense and 3 months of paid COBRA is very generous.

Do you have the option to decline the coverage and take the cash? Jump on your wife's benefits and run with the money.

Chorizo, potato, egg, onion, and queso asadero. No finer breakfast. :D^

Same here; I can't get in anywhere

I should have mentioned that you would have needed to be registered for the preview site for that route to work.

In the world of "what would you do?" Should I try getting a seat in now empty row 14 at OLCI on next week's long flight knowing that it's likely some kettle will ruin my lie-flat configuration or stick to my row 8 that's likely to remain just me? It is slightly quieter at Row 8 than 14.
