I'm waiting to see the pricing and mileage. I think, thought it was not explicitly said, that the charter legs FRA-OSL-TLS-FRA are going to get a blanket 2,000 or 2,500 EQM. 2,500 would be closer to reality, but seeing as how it's a charter, I would happily take 2,000 and shut up about it.

I have to decide if I want to give myself that trip for a birthday present...

I feel tired, but just not enough to kill the lights. I usually read myself to sleep, and 35 pages into John Lott's treatise on how wrong gun control is, I wasn't sufficiently tired.

No other travel booked as of yet, really looking like DEQM might take me from Silver to Plat with no flights as Gold ... I need to get a VDB voucher this weekend and/or find a FT Do to attend in order to remedy this situation.

My flights this weekend are 0.0 EQM much less DEQM :(:(:(

JFK-FRA-EWR should also rack up the miles in addition to the charter.

Alternative/Indie rock folks - check out the serenely harmonized oddness of Grizzly Bear.

I like the song and the video. Baglady likes the song and hates the video. YMMV.

Weird video. Actually that song puts me to sleep like Coldplay.

Yeah, but those are the regular scheduled flights. I'm debating coming back to PHL. It'll snag me an A340.

I think I'm tired enough now.

I asked about the meal and the GA offered to check what it is and report back so I will know if I should buy something. ^

EDIT: FC meal is a ruben sandwich. I stopped at CPK for a pizza instead.

I like the ruben sandwich. Of course CPK is good too.

It was a nice slow evening at work tonight. ^
We did have one moment of entertainment, when we heard a very loud outbust of Chinese. Father and son were having quite an argument in the boarding area. I had to ask them to stop. They did but not before the father wacked his son on his head. The father had to be in his 60s and the son was in his 30s.

Good night/morning Box.

welcome to Newark where the local time is :rolleyes:

I wonder by how much my EWR-PHL flight will be delayed this morning. Hopefully enough for me to cancel and just take the train home.

EDIT: I asked the PC agent about proactively changing to the CO coded Amtrak flight to ZFV in case of a delay. After 20 minutes of typing and calling for help she re-printed the same ticket and wrote “RULE 120.20” on it and told me to show that to the Amtrak people. Anyone know what that means and if that’s right? I don’t want a problem with Amtrak.

It doesn't matter now. As expected the EWR-PHL flight is delayed 2 hours. I just cancelled it and I'm taking NJT home.
