Why should those stop you?

Anyone know anything about AS F?

Seats look like CO F and they have free Alaskan Amber.

The free Alaskan Amber is enough to sell AS F to me.

I set one foot in the Salon de las Americas and had to flee for the Amex Lounge. Even the Amex Lounge is overcrowded and pitiful. Why does EZE have such terrible lounges? :rolleyes:

True if you are referring to the CO 739ER F seats, which (IMO), are the worst domestic F seats in the fleet. However, the Alaskan Amber does help make up for it.

Interesting point.

Garbage in, garbage out...

^ ... why do you think I'm still here after 14 years!!! When we originally came to the US it was on a two year assignment. At the end of the two years Mr. Brit was offered the chance to go back to the UK - "errr, no, I think we'll stay another year ..." at the end of year 3, same scenario. I think they gave up asking us at year 6.



Never would I return to live in the UK.

That is true - they looked just like the CO 739F seats (though I could swear I was on a 733 that had seats that looked just like that the other day).

Of course, free Alaskan Amber can make up for a lot of things.

On another topic, woo-hoo - post 7000!

Fairly standard domestic FC accommodations on the 737s but last time I was not paying that much attention to comfort when the weather was good and Denali was clear as a bell out of the right-hand window on the flight FAI-ANC. I do recall that I had a pretty good glass of beer.

I am looking at the AS reward charts,

160k CX or 140K QF US to Australia. In F of course.

I like...

Not bad at all. I'm halfway to where I want to be mile-wise. The last time I redeemed was for a standard 50K domestic and the next redemption I'm planning on is HKG or HNL up front, if we don't end up upgrading/copaying wherever we fly for a honeymoon, which is currently slated for into MAD and out of BCN, assuming that those plans don't change. I need to get a job so I can justify some cheap MR-ing for more RDM.

colpuck Jul 5, 2009 5:32 pm

It is 140K for US-Asia in CX F. Personally I'll pay the 20K premium for CX F over CO BF.

You should have talked your way into the Black Card Lounge:
