Would crediting to UA be defined as usable to you?

So I see that I wasn't far off. You should buy a Stetson and that t-shirt that says "Save a horse; ride a cowboy."

It's all good. The joke has flown over my head about 178 times since I came to The Box.

You've met me, something tells me I would look a little out of place. ;)

Is UA usable at all?

It was Gretzky himself who said that you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

UA, from what I understand, is useable.

You can still ticket Skyteam stuff and it will be honored. Likely there is some decent availability to Asia on NW and you may want to try to grab it while you can.

I would at least get a reward reservation in place and then consider my other options. The reward can always be canceled with no penalty as a Plat, so you have nothing to lose.

I wont have plat until Nov 13th to be exact. The HKG trip would be before that, so I would have to pay the $150 fee for a redeposit. I guess I could search for somthing, ticket it and then change the dates more than 21 days out to after I make plat and cancel it to avoid the $150 fee but that seems like a lot of :rolleyes:

It might. If I were to credit about 22K to UA, I could always find away to get another 3K UA miles to top off and redeem a "free" ticket with UA or maybe even CO.

It wasn't that obscure!;) He probably just missed it when you posted it!:D

I'm sitting here and not in bed reading solely to put AM 1.0 planes into service. DelNorTalia Aeroline is perilously close to the point that comes in all AM worlds where logical expansion is near its end and the airline is so large that the aircraft maintenance charge eats almost all the profits.

Yep that's the shore for you and that's why I hate it.

baglady's husband and whole lot more. Why people actually pay to use the beach is beyond me. And when I used to live there people talked about the shore as the best beach(es).:rolleyes::rolleyes:

It was via PM's. I cut and pasted the code into a Word document because I was so proud of my obscurity. I actually thought that he was going in the same direction I was for a minute, but one response later I was proven wrong. I'd feel guilty not admitting that I was using movie lines as answers. :o

Oh bugger...

Needing to be up at 6 tomorrow morn is bad. Foing it after an extra round of grappa on the house is just bad news.

G'night all.

Have fun with that. I remember my two weeks in Italy and our nightly Grappa dessert!
