I can indeed. Now I need to figure out food options while in AUA (where I won't have and don't want a car).

I've never been to AUA, so have no idea what the lay of the land is regarding culinary adventures there -- but I'm sure you'll have no problem there!;) Have to imagine that there must be yummy seafood like conch chowder & the like. :-:Don't blame you for not wanting to rent a car.

Hmmmm. BTS, FlightMemory, and the N-number FAA tool are conspiring to tell me that I have been on a 737-900. Never would have thought.

G'Nite, B:rolleyes:X! Enough PWing for one day!:D

CO's non-ER 739s look pretty much just like a 738 with the mid-cabin lav inside, except they're a little longer.

Of course it's also possible that the BTS website is wrong; many times I've found glaring errors in the data submitted by the airlines.

I've been on plenty :D

however till this weekend, never an A319 or A320, or DC-9-40 or CR9, I get all this weekend. Maybe before the end of the month I will get the Ejets too :D

When you work in baggage service, you know that people are going to be upset. The trick is not to get upset along with them. Every time they yell "you lost my bag" you try not to tell them, yeah I was in EWR, checked your bag in, ripped off the tag after you walked away and put another destination tag on it, hopped on your flight and ran down to this office to sit here and take your crap, oh I meant claim. :rolleyes:

This is my first trip after upgrading the batteries in my work laptop. I've had the computer on and not plugged in for nearly three hours now, Wi-Fi on, and screen not dimmed at all, and I've still got 67% of my battery life remaining, and Windows estimates that will last another 5.5 hours. I'm really liking this new setup — before I was lucky to squeeze 3.5 hours out of a battery with the screen as dim as I could get it and still see it, and the Wi-Fi on. Sure, my computer is about 0.75 pound heavier (which I noticed carrying my bag tonight at the airport), but this is going to be really nice in two weeks when I have some 5 hour long transcon flights coming up.

I also listed my old EmPower adapter and external universal laptop battery on eBay the other day. No need to keep them if I can get 7-8 hours of battery life out of the batteries in the laptop now, and long haul aircraft are increasingly being equipped with standard 120v outlets.

Happy Anniversary to Me

Today, two years ago I signed up for FT. ^

Good luck with the DC-9-40. NW only has a handful of those — I think it's less than a dozen — and it's quite common for them to sub a -30 if the flight isn't full, which allows for staffing the flight with only 2 instead of 3 flight attendants, or if the flight is running full, they have a bunch of -50s and they'll sub that instead to prevent an oversell. The -40s, like the -30s, are also known for their frequent maintenance issues, and since they have the same crew staffing requirements as the -50, and NW has a lot more -50s, they'll often sub a -50 when a -40 breaks and is going to have a long delay. I was booked on about 10-15 -40 flights before I actually flew one last year that had a -40 show up for the flight. Be sure to jot down the registration number to check it for the exact type.

I've been on many 319s and 320s with NW. Back when I was doing the IAH-MSP commute several times a month, I often flew the exact same aircraft, sometimes twice in the same week. NW used to run the same plane on the same routes day after day.

I'm really going to miss NW. Actually, I already do; since the changes to make NW on board service align with DL's service that happened around March 1, it's just not the same. I had a lot of great flights with them around 2005-2007, especially when commuting to the Twin Cities, and the easy upgrades were always great, as well as the mainline service to smaller cities that everyone else flew RJs to. They were a great partner for CO, and it's sad to see that relationship quickly ending, thanks to DL (who never liked to play nice with CO).

Congrats!!!! :D

This was long enough ago that I wasn't paying attention to detail. If they are wrong, I don't have a way to counter it. I also discovered in tonight's research binge that I have been on way more 737-200's than I ever remember.

:mad: Crap. The broken tray table on my DL MD-88 flight tonight left a big grease mark on my jeans.

In any case, I have verifiable rides on a 737-200/300/400/500/700/800, with one maybe ride on a 900. The thought of getting a -600 out of ACY on WS is tempting (it's not confirmed that WS will be flying -600's here, but it's their smallest seat count, so it's an educated guess) and I can always catch a 739 on CO just to sweep the major variants of the 737 series for sure.

I'm missing all but the -600 and -100. Of course the -100 is impossible now, since there aren't any airworthy models left. I've even got a -200 combi, on AS in 2004, in an all passenger configuration. I had a window seat in the middle of the cargo door.
