Any interest in a Up in the Air mini-DO in NYC in Nov?

I read that as a DO that would take place up in the air :D

You don't have your FlightMemory URL enabled?

Nuts! I’ll look into what’s up with that. I have a lot to add, anyhow. Once Canarsie is on his way to Antarctica I’ll also have My WaffleHouseMemory to add in the sig. :D

You need to go to your profile when logged in to FM and allow your stats to be published. Until then, others will not be able to view them. The default setting is non-public.

What can I say. I'm a big fan of the new US premium cocktail offerings. I bet I could drink a lot of Pomegranate Martinis on CLT-HNL (I also want the FM Line, in case the route fails...). :D

Same with UA. It eludes me as to why UA is retrofitting all the Ted planes with new F seats but not putting power in. :confused::confused:

This is surprising, because their regular domestic F fleet does have empower. I recall getting a Skykit because it wasn't working on PDX-DEN. :D

I don't understand the reference to HOA's and gated communities other than to say that I hate my HOA too. My mother gets singled out for having a painted front door. And meanwhile our landscaping sucks...I wonder what deserves more time and energy devoted to it? :rolleyes:

Ok, the FM line I would do it for.

Not really. Most of the domestic fleet does not have power, you were just lucky.

The only times you are sure to be with a power equipped plane is on PS or International 767, 777 and 747s.

I can only think of two routes on my map that don't exist anymore. EWR-COS and EWR-ORY on CO.

After the UA experience SFO-OTH and *not* back to SFO, if I had my druthers, it'll be a cold day in hell before I get on UA again. I was originally going to book on WN, but found a better return flight time, so F9 got the biz. Of interesting note, I get a *new* FM line out of it.

Now *THAT* is something I'd definitely be in for. I've seen some of the pics on A.net, would like to see it for real.

CA isn't all that great. The HOAs are way too abundant and it was one of my biggest gripe (and they really did impact my personal freedom). The ones in NJ are pale in comparison.
