I've only done it once, but if I remember correctly, when doing the initial OLCI with the airline operating the first segment, all boarding passes for all connections on UA and US printed.

I dunno why it never occurred to me before, but TPA-ONT should be dubbed "The Tampon Run."

The US website won't let me pick UA seat assignments and it says the fare class for the UA flights is unknown so I'd be surprised if they are able to handle the printing of UA boarding passes. I'll find out tomorrow...

Give UA a call and you should be able to get seats. Maybe not one of your choosing but at least you'll get seats assigned.

In other news, I've decided to go all-out :rolleyes:. In thinking through my honeymoon I'd really like to do a 'round the world. Right now I have 230k miles in my :rolleyes:P account. Does anyone think it's possible for me to amass another 210k (for two tickets in J @ 220/pop) between now and the end of the calendar year (which will give me a fighting shot at getting the itinerary I want) without doing a mileage run? Also ...you have now given me a honeymoon idea as well. I know nothing about RTW but it sounds like a good use of miles :) ...time to start researcing |

I'm trying to go for the beginner pistol weekend. I know what I'm doing with a pistol, but I've never had formal instruction outside of a military setting. Going back to basics couldn't hurt, especially since I know I have bad habits that I want to train myself out of.
One of my biggest buyer's regret moment was not purchasing a Sig assault rifle prior to the CA assault rifle ban. That was some sweet hardware. I rank it up there with HKs. |

Basics is always good. Here in la-la land where gun ranges are going the way of the dodo :rolleyes:, you don't get to shoot as often and one can easily lose some of that sharpness.

I'm also basically competent with a shotgun, as in hitting between 15 and 20 trap birds per round of 25. One area that I have no real experience is practical rifle. That's intriguing to me. |
Good morning box. Apparently the start date for my new :rolleyes: has been moved up to next Monday.

Here's the story:
September/October 2001 and I'm still a corporate trainer. I fly the outbound from my home near IAD to SFO on a Monday morning to start a class at one of the really flush law firms. I'm on an e-ticket. Tuesday/Wednesday (and after I've flown the outbound), US hears grumbling that the federal government might require paper tickets for air travel. Without attempting to contact me, US re-issues my e-Ticket - for a trip in progress - and mails a paper ticket to my home (which they had flown me from earlier in the week). Apparently, I was to teleport back to Reston, VA to pick up the ticket for my return from SFO ... I get to SFO on Friday to come home and the front-desk says I need my paper ticket. I explain that I'm on an e-ticket. They say the ticket's been converted to a paper ticket and mailed to my home. I show them the e-ticket BP from when I flew out (my company required BP's at the time for reimbursement) and that I couldn't possibly have something mailed to my home after I left my home on their aircraft. Me flying out on an e-ticket that's now a paper ticket absolutely perplexes the US employees at SFO. Long story short, I had to give US $100 in order to get on the red-eye home - for a while it was a toss-up between me paying the $100 or causing an incident (and being arrested). And yes, my e-ticket was re-issued as an e-ticket. :rolleyes: As a result, I have flown a US-only itinerary twice in the last 7.5 years: A. Using all my miles on an award ticket. B. Some ridiculously cheap itinerary to visit my best friend (~$80 DCA-BOS). |

I haven't shot in quite a while now, but it is just due to time constraints, I love it. |
