FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

That's how most of the people I know use Facebook -- to keep track of acquaintances from high school whom they don't otherwise keep in touch with.

I stay off of Facebook so that people can't find me (or at least have to use Google).

Still - it's odd that people I never even socialized with are adding me. And let's just say my 10 year reunion is l:rolleyes:ng gone...

Forgive me if I have asked this before, but I forgot. Are the WBC seats on NW/DL 747's flat?

I am going to start looking for reward seats in business for Oct 28 and wated to see what my options were now that I know I am going to HK.

I am flying alone on the outbound so I plan to fill that with as much Aeroporn :rolleyes: as I can, but we will be flying the nonstop in coach on the return :mad:

That one was going for cheap I ended up at the Aloft Las Colinas this weekend, but the Dallas NOrth LM was going for $71/night!

Wow! That's incredibly cheap! And less than I've spent at the Dallas area Alofts on what I considered to be fairly cheap rates.

That's a bit harsh. I can name at least a dozen, if not more, that suck far more than either of those.

Ever spent a week in Toledo?

They were flat for me on the A330 a few weeks ago (and I think the 747s have the same exact seat) - they're just the uncomfortable slanted lie-flats that make you feel like you're sliding down the seat.

Yes it is! In fact, we are making another visit there tonight - after we go shopping for some cowboy boots (in order to fit in a little better).

The Double Dirty Love Burger was frigging awesome. And the music was good too. All-in-all a great time there. It is cash-only, so be prepared for that.

Love Shack is awesome! We popped in there for lunch while spending the day in Fort Worth about this time a year ago.

Where in downtown Dallas do you feel unsafe? I've personally never experienced that in downtown, although much of it is pretty dead outside of Monday-Friday, 9:00-5:00.

As for unsafe areas, every city has them.

I keep hearing that's a great place. But I've gotten in the habit of timing my arrivals at ATL so that I arrive at the gate just minutes before boarding starts. Maybe one day I'll venture down to E and have a meal there.
