Welcome home. And don't worry too much about the work. They've waited this long so a bit longer won't kill them. ;)

There is a lot of seat blocking going on around me.

Welcome back ALCO! Hope you and your bride had a great trip!


I am thinking of booking a stay at the Nines in PDX. Good idea? The Westin looks less than stellar and the Nines is only $29 more.

OK, not the truck, the vehicle. :p I saw the laptop of another of our sales reps in tracking, and it was on a straight line from CLE to LAX.

Good for you on the rate. I didn't want you to have to deal with the Sheraton anyway. By all accounts it's a decent property, but the ownership is atrocious.

Yeah, no kidding. Someone decided to drop off the face of the planet.

I hate Acl trains without the new leather seats.

The train hadn't even left the station and two people behind me were already arguing about cell phone use in the quiet car.

I love the quiet car for wstching people argueas much as I love it for being quiet.

I take it some people don't notice the big quiet car signs that seemed to be placed every 5 feet hanging from the ceiling? :rolleyes:

Welcome back, ALCO.

He may be hotel hopping for spg free weekend purposes.

Is it still possible to status match to NW (and not DL)? Has anyone in The Box done this recently? Does CO Plat guarantee NW Plat?

Interesting... I don't have any interest in NW Gold as it won't get me International lounge access but I'll give it a try and see what happens. Is there an email address to which I can send the request or do I need to mail it to the address in the master status match thread?
