FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

I remember having to go to the KE office in NYC, which at that time (still?) was on Madison Avenue, not at all far from the Beretta store. That was fun, in that twisted Is Not Possible kind of way.

Dunno how well that will play out or even if that is where it will end up, but that sure looks like what he's thinking from here.

Things have changed on CC and some people have ruined it for the mass. I hope it reopens. I'll always offer to the box first if I'm not using something, and if no takers, CC.

Headed for bed and hope I wake up well.

I don't see why not. I think I'm going to start taking that SQ JFK-FRA flight when I need to go to Europe until the 744 is retired.

I already hate tomorrow. New suit and standing on subway platforms on a hot sticky day.

1598 tomorrow says "Full Full" on CO.com with 3 standby pax right now. Where's the magic eight ball? I need to know if I should be remotely excited about a possible bump..

My crystal ball says, "No. This flight booking levels were set for another type of aircraft. CO is holding out seats to avoid overbookings. This flight is underbooked if it's a 737-800. Sorry."

It's a great flight. Times are superb as you can actually manage some sleep because it leaves so late and it avoids a full day of meetings when you land (half days are manageable).

Flight home leaves FRA pretty early (830am?) but you get into JFK at around 1120, and the immigration ques are empty. You have a nice afternoon in NYC and after a quick one hour nap your body is good to go. :-:

Once CO transitions fully to Star they're going to lose me on this route.

Night, night,
Sleep tight,
Make sure the bedbugs don't bite,
If they do
Squeeze 'em tight
and they won't come back another night!

Hope you feel better tomorrow.

You got in the lounge with *A Gold?

Today yes somehow, but I am actually flying SQ F, which the VS CH is the contract lounge for.

Try fitting all that on that little floating triangle in the Magic 8-Ball. :D

Well, book your trips now before they pull the 744. I'm hoping to grab it now and then have an equipment swap happen. :D

Is JFK-FRA going to go 772 or 77W? Any reasoned speculation out there?

All times are GMT -6. The time now is 6:31 pm.
