Awesome. I can't wait for this DO. My Aunt is already ready to buy her tickets. Think we are going over on Thursday back on Monday. They don't have holidays where she works. I need to head over to the PRG DO thread and see what people are doing for flights. I may wait till after the switch and my flights on LH to see who I want to fly over there. I could just do CO to Germany and transfer to someone else. We shall see.

The drive from FRA to PRG is pretty interesting. It's about 5 hours. I wouldn't suggest driving in PRG itself, though.

Is it possible to catch a cold over the internets? I think when we were the only ones posting the other night (talking about various thrasher music), one of us got the other one sick.

Should be a fun set of flights home today :rolleyes:.

After walking through the one in Vega$ a few times while showing people around -- people who insisted on going to Circus Circus despite my warnings, all I can say is AVOID AVOID AVOID. DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER DANGER DANGER!!! The La$ Vega$ location is filled with :rolleyes: the likes of which you have never in your life seen before. The dregs of humanity that roam the halls are not to be believed. I can't imagine that the one in Reno is any different.

Try staying at the Silver Legacy. It's one of the nicest places in Reno. The Sunday brunch at Stirling's is probably the best in town. Of course, there are plenty of places that also offer points and miles too. ;)

Cheap, but not enough miles. It is like the MCO/TPA fares to middle-America last year. They were cheap but there just weren't a lot of miles involved.

Just found it. Nice!

I was looking at IAH-EWR-TXL for June 15, 2010 and the 752 seatmap for EWR-TXL is just about sold out... Is there something going on in Berlin this coming summer?

Oh, no. Wrap up well. Keep warm. Drink lots of fluids. Take some tylenol. Rest. Rest. Rest.

SteveGadfly - same advice to you.

We can't have two of our Boxers out for the count.

Feel better soon, guys.

I have to fly on Sunday and Monday - and N:rolleyes:rthwelta on a non-mileage ticket, no less.

I can just about breathe, and I have to bring my mother home from the spine care place then drive out near Philly and take care of the teaching paperwork...at least then, I can go to my fiancee's when nobody is home and pass out for a few hours.

Totally non-sequitur, but I just heard an ad for CO on the O&A show.

I hear their J is alright (the seat looks identical to Aeroflot's, which I like). Dunno how they are in Y.
