I won't be there until the afternoon - save some booze for me. :p

Surely you don't think I would have a Gin & Tonic at 07:00am? ;)

DTW is key, it is NW flight.

true, i got good RDMs out of them, but not the best return on RDMs really for that spend I think.

I calculate DFW-DTW-MIA-MEM-ATL-DFW (factoring in 500mi minimum for MEM-ATL) at 4221 BIS, which comes to 8442 RDM with 100% Plat Bonus. I paid $252, so it comes to 3cpm. It's not insane, but considering that it's confirmed F, plus a trip to Florida, I'm actually quite pleased.

In my agency, the first check is always issued on paper (the first pay-cycle is a test with direct deposit).

I'll probably do that in about 5 hours - going to show in the office for a bit, after waiting for the UPS station guy. I had dollar coins put on hold at the station yesterday due to travel; UPS put them on the truck anyway to attempt redelivery.

Calling US anything should feel wrong.

ok not bad if you consider it that way.
you are going via atl?! I wasn't able to get a confirmed first via ATL, they all went coach! I saw one option via MSP that I really wanted on return but the timing did not match up for me making it to the airport in time at all.

Oh, you misunderstand me, I meant if that would be SOP if Windows was running it. :-::D:p
