Probably a bland selection of chicken or beef, just like every other long-haul Y product out there. I don't think I have ever selected a Y product for the food. :-:

I've been impressed by the last two longhaul Y meals I received on CO.

The connection options you listed aren't bad though.

ETA: FRA-YYC is available for the return :eek:

what's "pwpe"d?

Also, sometimes I can't be in the box during the day, if I am onsite with a client and don't have access to the internet. that's how I missed out on the B-up to NRT earlier in the year. Coulda kicked myself for not logging into FT for two days :(

Now, I try to log in at least daily, even if only to do a quick skim late a night or early in the morning when I'm on assignment.

Tommy's still blaming us and not his and olivers inability to read e-mails. I've reported the post. I suggest others do to.

SQ actually had pretty decent food in Y.

The ladies serving the food weren't bad either... :D

I was thinking of doing IAH-YUL-FRA-YYC-IAH. Roundtrip fares FRA-PRG are cheap... (at least before taxes/fees)

I found out about BZE, ZRH, NRT and HNL though the Box :D

The LX fare isn't bad either. I wonder if that's a codeshare or if it actually connects through ZRH or GVA.

Anglo Large Clawed Otter Sep 23, 2009 10:21 am

I'd still like to do IAH-DME at some point next year. It just doesn't look like the flight timing, pricing, and connections work so well for PRG. I'd rather not do IAH-FRA (have the route already), and Aero Canadia looks like it can offer some intriguing FM lines a bit north of my usual TATL tracks.

Cool! Or, am I showing my age saying that? Should I be saying "Awesome"!!!

I found out about MSP-GEG through the box, too. Just happened to be sitting in the PC lounge in SAT when I browsed the box and stumbled across it. Managed to get one flight booked before they shut it down. Was in the middle of booking the second one when it came back priced at 2133 instead of 153 - :mad:

I've love an IAH-MUC but don't seen it happening unless LH metal...and I am not sure demand is there even with connections in MUC

I was at the BJ/EJ concert in DC when I checked teh Box on my pda. I quickly open the full co site on my pda, but was stuck in a constant loop and was unable to process the B-up. I had to miss about 20 minutes of the concert while I explained step-by-step to a kettle friend how to process my precious upgrade. :-:

What was the ZRH fare exactly? $200 r/t on DL in coach?
