I was going to suggest you check out KD Avia, but it looks like they ceased operations a few days ago.

EWR-LGW (CO) wasn't that in BF as a price mistake?
IAH-LGW (CO)
SNA-OAK(AS)
IAH-IAH (CO), Very short lived route :D

I've done all of those except SNA-OAK! I really liked EWR-OAK. It was so convenient.

Economic power of FT?
 
Had to come back for this: two or three times, I've posted the EUR rate in the Box, largely because I view its current run with great :rolleyes: and :confused:.

Each time, in the minutes following, the price has pulled back at least a quarter cent. Next time, I think I might short it before posting. ;)

Is the standard breakfast start time at Hampton Inns either 0530 or 0600? I can't remember.

What is this Hampton Inn of which you speak?

Happy Anniversary to Me

23 years ago I began my career at Continental Airlines in Honolulu. I have also worked in DCA and currently I'm at SFO. It's been quite a ride and one that I have totally enjoyed.

Congrats to my favorite sfogate/bag agent ;) ^

Perhaps another fly-by-night operator will rise up between now and January. :D

Congrats. What an asset you are :-:.

I have been with my company for 28 years.

A way better option than most full service HH properties. Free internet, free breakfast and way more consistent an experience. :p

Are the SPG concert ticket codes transferable? If so, does anyone want 2 codes? The selection of concerts in my area is rather :rolleyes:...

Thoughts on the new US Envoy "Suite?" It looks pretty nice (and similar to CO's with the cubby for the feet) though I have no idea why they're calling it a suite. Layout is 1-2-1 on the 330s, but more rows so they don't lose any seats in the cabin.

I was looking at these this morning - I'm also a little confused as to why they are calling them suites. Overall, they look like decent seats and a significant upgrade over the current Envoy seats. Another confusing point is that they say they are 180 degrees flat, but all of the pictures show a slight angle at the head and feet - perhaps it's just the pictures.

A ^ to the designer for putting together a design/layout that has less seats per row but allows more rows.

I thought they looked pretty nice and expect this type seating to be the "norm" in the near future, but it seems that they are taking a LONG time to retrofit the 332 fleet (2011) and are still developing the 333 plan. The layout is very intriguing and await PAX feedback once the first aircraft rolls out in several months.

Preach on, brother. I don't need to chase suite upgrades when I travel - give me consistently good every time and I'll take it. My fiancee turned me on to Hampton when we were first dating because she was using them for work, and I've not been dissatisfied once. In 20+ stays over the last few years all over the country, the worst gripe I've had is a wonky toilet.

I've already announced my very real intention to buy a Hampton bed for wherever we move into. We sleep the sleep of the drugged in that bed.
