Plus1. Although I got about 5 hours of flying in yesterday. This was my first true Transcon and I am wondering why they passed out a menu? The service was actually worse than my flight LGA-IAH. The only difference I saw for breakfast was that Mimosas were included and yogurt was not? Oh, I guess they had the option of french toast which is not typically included in the LGA-IAH offering.

I checked a few days ago, and they want close to $200/night for the non-prepaid rate. :rolleyes: Since we're talking about PRG in January, I'm sure the rates will come down.

I paid about half that for the Hilton Prague.

You could get an Illinois I-Pass, which is compatible with EZPass. No monthly/annual fees. $10 refundable deposit on the transponder, $40 balance to open the account.

If you happen to be in the greater Chicago area at any point, you can acquire one at a Jewel-Osco grocery store, even.

That's why I kept mine when I moved to NYC. :D

Stop that! Milestone posts are won fair and square by he or she who clicks at the correct time. Good for you. ^^ :D:D (See that? Optimism.)

Yeah, and it's even more delicious when you can fend off some :rolleyes: from another poster to obtain said milestone. :)

I'll be on a mix of CO and US (FLL-PDX this weekend). Got my 5-Day EUA on IAH-FLL. ^

I am flying NW on almost some routing in first :D

When will you be in FLL? will you be there more than just passing?

It is a short hop on WN. All other airlines require a connection. Oh wait - I could drive it in less than 4 hours.

Agreed. Since I've stopped paying attention to "mainstream" news I've been a much happier person.

CLE-MSP at the end of September will be my first Chautauqua experience. It's on an ERJ and I can't wait. :rolleyes:

I've managed to avoid their flights for months now. My current schedule has me flying places I can get mostly on mainline. The closest I've come are several EMB-170 flights operated by Chautauqua's sister airline, Shuttle America.

Transcons for breakfast are not really anything special. The afternoon/evening meals are.

At least it's not a CRJ. Their ERJs are somewhat better than they used to be; they only look slightly like US Airways inside now, as opposed to when they first showed up at CO and the interiors of those planes were in full early 2000s US Airways colors.
