I found limited internest access at work. Going to shoot video of the Texans practice today. :rolleyes: I'd rather be in PHL and get video of the Ron Mexico circus.

I've invited her but she declined due to the brevity of the trip.

And I haven't booked (or even really researched) flights yet.

I don't plan on booking flights until late October or early November as January in PRG is obviously a very low peak time and fares will only come down. Although, I'm not even sure where they are at now.

My wife is a nurse and needs to work that weekend, so she will not be joining me.

I plan on buying a ticket in the next few days or at least by mid-September. I'm going the IAH-EWR-FRA-PRG route for now.

So you are leaving on Thursday and coming back on the 6 am Monday morning flight?

PM me details when you find out more. Ill try to hop on the same flight.

Just looked at PRG fares and they are still $650+. No thank you!

I'll probably look to head over on 1/14 or 1/15 and return on 1/18. I'm considering the possibility of mixing TATL flights between LX and LH.

I'll start up a thread in the main CO forum in the next few weeks so we can discuss plans further.

It's $496 right now r/t IAH-EWR-FRA-PRG with a connection to LH. Kind of hard to beat.

Thats pretty much why I didnt jump on it. I think it would be cool to try the premium cabin on other carriers but the TOTAL cost of positioning and hotels killed it for me especially since I wouldnt be able to do multiple runs. There will always be another deal out there somewhere...

I jumped on the US one of these. Out of ORD at 6am and no more hotels needed :eek: as I return at 5am the next morning.

Wow, that's pretty good for 4+ months out. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if that dropped a little more as carriers again realize TATL bookings are going to be low this winter...

I think sdm1130 meant $650 a/i. $496++

I got a straight ORD-PHX-GEG-PHX-ORD same day turn that actually is soemthing like 7:15am-12:05am+1. The 5am return is GEG-PHX-SFO-ORD, I believe.

But the fare is gone. It dried up around 10am EDT.

Car inspection: check.
Forward appropriate documents to subbing place: check.
Burn B&N gift card: check.
Banking: check.

Trolling around the NJ Dept. of Ed. website and uninstalling/reinstall printer drivers without all the consumer crap: :rolleyes:
