OZ or NZ? I don't know about Y. Obvously AC and NZ have a better C product than OZ as far as privacy goes. For me, the meals on the two OZ long-haul flights did not impress me nor my wife. The SYD-ICN segment was unbearably warm despite asking crew if the temperature could be reduced.

In contrast, the outbound LAX-AKL-SYD segments were fantastic.

How about drink vouchers on either CO or VX? :D
Much more effective. And lighter, too. :D

Plenty of time to head into town then grab a ride on the bullet train. And the train is pretty cheap.
Is there anything of interest at any of the Bullet Train's stops?

sister only flies Y, OZ and UA, and once KE,teachers don't make the big bucks really, buy the cheapest :D

I flew OZ the reverse of that. Just not impressed. When are you going? Could you not find NZ availability from LAX, SFO or YVR?
In J or F? I've got JFK-ICN in F booked for May (I think...definitely some time next year) and I was pretty excited about it, despite the 12:30am JFK departure.

The women of The Box will tell you that birthing babies creates useless bladders.

I also decided to have a few photos taken for mom while I was traveling in East TN. I've really lost weight - the shirt in the black/white photo is the very same as the photo that made me realize I needed to diet.
Very nice pic! You look great!

Welcome briantoronto, ArizonaGuy, and the other new Boxers!

PLUS ONE. PLUS FREAKING ONE. I lived in Louisiana for 2 years and I'd still take it over the other extreme.

I do enjoy a couple of things about fall, though. Football, obviously. And pumpkins. Pumpkin anything: pie, muffins, soup, etc., etc.

So needless to say, the following article just made me drool: http://www.boston.com/ae/restaurants/gallery/pumpkin/
Pumpkin whoopie pies. Amazing. :D Gotta find some of that in NYC/NJ. Do we have any BOS-based Boxers? I'm blanking out...

OZ only has J on its 777s that do SYD-ICN. Their new F is supposed to be superb.

My bladder held a teacup before and even worse after. I must always have an aisle ;)

I dunno. I rode about an hour away, got off and bought a return ticket back.

I may have to see if I can make it to a ski resort in that 12-hour span.
