Not yet....I'm still waiting for your suggestion over at :rolleyes: thread. Once I hear from you, I will probably book my first flight sometime this week :eek:

BlissWorld Jul 23, 2008 2:59 pm

Btw....since I'm a newbie and all, if any of you have any tips or suggestions, please PM me! I really appreciate it.

Oh, I keep reading this 50% EQM on cheap fares...what is this about? I thought you get 100% EQM on any booking class as long as its on CO? :confused:

It appears that somebody at my company got a clue. We once again have a discount with CO. ^^^

ConciergeMike Jul 23, 2008 3:01 pm

100% EQM on all fares if thru co.com...deep discount buckets (50% if not thru co.com) on CO are QISTWXL.

I wish my company would do the same. At least they dumped US a while back. But right now it's just UA, DL, and AA that we supposedly have some sort of contract with.

Speaking of beer... Just received this in the mail yesterday:

Good Beer Guide

It's written by a couple of Brits and targeted to such audience, but I think we'll be able to use it. :D I can think of one brewpub that they missed, but overall it seems comprehensive. Apparently there are lots of places in SF that we haven't tried yet and we've kind of stuck with the one place that DH likes, 21st Amendment.

Bad ones. :mad: Yes, you will receive 4 drink coupons.

I believe the preferred nomenclature is "chits". :rolleyes:

To supplement the rather weak beer selection C:rolleyes: classes up the inflight experience with premixed margaritas. Fiesta!

I've always hated the word "chits" so I go with coupons. :)

Me too, I just wanted to make a covert Big Lebowski reference. Chit reminds me of what happens after I eat a tuna burrito. And not in the proverbial sense CM.

I also, for the record, hate "vittles" and "libations".

The steak usually is decent, in my experience. The only one I had in recent memory that truly was bad was catered in GRU, where all the catering is mediocre at best.
