No need to use VS anymore. SA J is exceptional, and F on a combo of UA/LX/LH/JJ/TK are all options (or will be soon) at reasonable redemption rates.

Does SA offer haircuts

She has this belief that we should be together during travel. Sorry honey, but uh - you're not a golfer.

It's a term coined by the administration along with "glimmers of hope" while describing the economy.

Im pretty lucky, she likes to travel as much as I do, and does not mind going on her own to places so she can't turn around and say don't travel without me.
She fully approves mileage running as it benefits her as well.

I'm looking at the miles earning chart and noticed discounted coach fares on AC earn no miles on intra CA and CA to US flights. :td:

Quite tempting but I think we're looking at going around mid-March, so JJ won't be an option.

JNB-EZE/GRU-IAD/ORD/IAH/EWR/YYZ are all options. :-:

Of course, how :rolleyes: of me. JNB-EZE would look quite nice on the FM.... :D

Does AC use their flat seats to EZE? If not, I guess UA F would be the best way to go.

She wants to travel a lot, but she looks at me as her personal travel agent...I sell to her, plan, and gain approval for destination and spend. Given what little experience she has, again, can't blame her for the outlook. Mileage running would be approved if she knew that it was my money, but would still be a hard sell because she doesn't totally see the point.

I'm starving. Way overslept, so no coffee today.

I believe it was a White House spokesperson. Bernanke later used it while talking about the economy on a television show.

Internet win: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_shoots

It is shoots, but it is referenced in numerous places (with definitions) as green chutes. :rolleyes: And according to that article, it was first used by Norman Lamont of the UK.

Yeah, usually the 763, although the 77W pops up from time to time.
Last year the AC flight was going EZE-SCL nonstop at times, but it I did it as EZE-SCL-YYZ

Yep. Flat seats are available on AC flights to both EZE and GRU. SA utilizes the A340-200 to EZE. :-:
