Looks like mistake fares will be pulled quicker in the near future: http://www.airfarewatchdog.com/NEWSA...ar-future.aspx

Not sure, but I don't like the odds. I ride the bus that Rotary books because I help to wrangle the group, take attendance, etc. and since no one else really lives as far down in the woods as me, I didn't think it would be right to charge the Boxers for the bus, hence the discount.

I hear there's a party lav large enough for 3-4 passengers, plus the multi-head shower with strategically placed grab bars in case you encounter unexpected turbulence during your activities in there. And they've adapted that nifty clothing delivery system CO uses in the PC showers to provide delivery of complimentary premium alcoholic beverages to the party lav, while maintaining the privacy of those in the lav.

Doesn't everyone know that the shop towels need to be secured with duct tape? :D

Not every airline will splash out to have 24-hour monitoring/response. I suspect we'll still see mistakes from smaller foreign airlines. Some airlines don't even have 24-hour customer service.

I must stay out of all threads that involve the CO/UA partnership or empty F seats. There's far too much b!tching and moaning about the same old cr@p going on in those, by the same old people.

Hartmann Oct 14, 2009 12:35 pm

Nevermind.

Nevermind - I found a cheap crap-box rental car. If someone else wants to fly into PHL (due to cost or other factors like adding the Q4 from EWR-PHL) and subsidize partial tolls and parking (or not subsidize is OK as well) ...

And that duct tape must be color-coordinated to the airline's colors as well.

yep always the same usual suspects. I have added to ignore list, and life is a lot better.

True. It just means that people like UA will be able to get the fares off of sites like Expedia and Travelocity much faster.

I should do the same. Might actually be easier if I could do a blanket ignore on user names starting with a "C," with the exception of Concierge Mike and a few others that post in here regularly.

Cool. I was going to suggest a train, but you went a step better.

SuperG1955 and NOLAlady are already confirmed.

Apparently NJ Transit redid it's website. It is dog slow now. :(
