I saw you had a video of the First Great Western train. I took the express from London Paddington to Slough and I could not figure out how to open the door. I had to stick my arm out the window and open the door from the outside to get off the train at Slough on my way to Windsor. :rolleyes:

Has any here looked at AeroMexico to retain SkyTeam Status?

Was that search page you were working on for reward availability or just revenue availability?

I probably should add to the description of the video that you see how to open the doors on those trains.

So people know what we are talking about, at the end of This Video you see how you have to open the doors on some of the trains in the UK.

I have thought about this, since AM always has decent fares to Argentina.

I wasn't an extra but I offered to supply handguns as props for a scene on a movie a friend of mine was directing. One scene and took 10 hours to complete. At the time I said never again.

At the end you see the people leaning out the window and opening the doors. Now why they couldn't add a handle on the inside is a mystery to me. The doors are locked until they stop at the station.

I don't see the entertainment in it. The AM2 was better because we had enough starting capital to do things right away instead of waiting to build up some cash, but it is horribly unrealistic as a simulation of the way airlines actually work and has so many "nuances" that I can't be bothered.

+1, I think (does that make it 0?). Looking at some of the mid-game maps it just sounds so...boring. Setting up routes are fun, but doing hundreds each time, blech. I don't mind simulations that make concessions to fun, but I don't find AM fun.

Nice video, even though it was a safety hazard. :D:p:rolleyes:

You know as much as I hate COO.L. at least CO makes it easy to understand the one pass program. I am trying to read this AM stuff and they make it difficult.

The OP agent at the elite desk is telling me that KE is not valid for a redemption :mad:

I had to just hang up and I will try again. :rolleyes:
