Does anyone know the name of the song that is played when on hold with the Elite Desk?

Correct.

It says SAS on the plane.

That logo just looks like a blue square so I wasn't certain.

That ain't nothing. Try MSP-IAH on an ERJ.

How about EWT-STL? It's only 872 miles, but it was into the teeth of the jet stream and took :mad::rolleyes: long. I had 12BC, though so it was bearable.

Oh boy. :rolleyes:

To complete the hat trick, the 'fullsize' I got was a Mitsubishi Galant. More meh than :rolleyes:, but it doesn't earn any :-:s.

Meh indeed.

Thank you for your support, Anglo Large Clawed Otter.

I hope other participants of The Penalty Box please pull through as well to vote for my entry and send me away to Antarctica. Currently, my entry is in 19th place with 127 votes, whilst the entry currently in first place has 865 votes.

I know that FlyerTalk members can easily push my entry ahead substantially...

So, I took the other :rolleyes: car in for service today and since it would be a while :rolleyes: they gave me a loaner. They were out of loaners so I got a comp from Thrifty, a Chrysler 300. I left my house at 5:00 to take it back and pick up the car and on the way to the dealer was promptly smacked in the rear by another car. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

On the plus side it was minor, no one was hurt, and it happened to a rental and not our car.
On the minus side it happened, and it happened to a rental which I feel will be :rolleyes::mad::mad::rolleyes:.

I'm not sure how all this insurance stuff will work out in the end, but the cop basically said it was her fault and will note it as such in his report. :mad::rolleyes::mad:

In an average year, I fly enough Express/Connection stuff to get at least Silver.

In 06/07, I made UA*G on nothing but :rolleyes:RD-ABE on UX CR2s.

Size isn't the issue. Certain airport codes that exist in AM will not render on KLS Great Circle Mapper. When you fly to one of those airports, your route map will no longer display. There are a few airports in Turkey and Iran that I found that would cause this to happen, so I quit flying to them, despite them being convenient timing fits.

They take a sizeable chunk out of my wallet on a regular basis. The Significant Otter has a penguin fetish, which has to date required trips to New Zealand and South Africa to mollify.

The agent was wrong. They figured it out. :-:

No DL confirmation at all. They are telling me that I just have a NWA confirmation and it's a NW flight but operated with DL plane.

The whole DL/NW integration is very screwed up. Every DL, NW, or CO reservation I've had in the last four months that's involved a codeshare with DL and another carrier has been totally hosed, and required a significant amount of time at the airport to get checked in.
