I guarantee you, they sleep really well at night. If I was not attached, I'm absolutely certain that I would be in the Middle East right now. I would have jumped on that munitions contracting gig, but not at the cost of my relationship...the death of which I wasn't ruling out happening at the time I was thinking about doing it. |

Why do the foreign carriers have such good percentages...or perhaps more accurately, why is it anticipated that they will? I don't get it.

What do you mean? CO commonly awards 150% for full Y fares, on both domestic and foreign partners. BD is the outlier in this instance, as it only awards 100% for full Y on SA.

I've heard about the scenery but never knew too much past that. I want to do a photo safari at some point but I'd never considered there. I always looked at options in South Africa/Tanzania area. @:-)

ewr-gru-jnb-wvb ewr/jfk-lis/lhr/zrh/fra/muc/ist-cpt/jnb-wvb ETA - I will be down there from 12/27-12/29, then catching WVB-CPT-LHR to snag an A342. |
