Good evening, Box.
Long time lurker, posting at the Box for the first time. This was a year of little travel, thanks to a reduced budget, but it seems my luck is changing. I'm flying to SFO tomorrow, probably the U.S. city I like the most. One last chace to cross paths with other fellow FTers around. |

My gf just took me some speakeasy bakery inside an art/book store |
Leaving day before Thanksgiving. Not sure what my return date is yet. Have to stop in FRA on the way back handle some business.

If you're on the E70, you're much more likely to make it into and out of PHL. I have been stuck on the tarmac for an hour on a CRJ waiting for gates in Terminal F to clear...
Surprisingly, most of the flights on US between PHL and CLE are E70s or E75s. I was under the impression that CO had the bulk of market share, but US seems to have more seats, now that the afternoon 737 is gone. Mrs. MBM3 usually drives to PIT and hops WN for the remainder of the trip. |

I hate Cisco. We have a couple switches at this client site. One of them fried just now. They have a support contract, but it doesn't have my name on it so Cisco is refusing to help.
I hate Cisco. |

Fares are simply awful to Philly, so I think CO lost interest when people stopped flying it. Most folks I know would rather fly to BWI and drive/train up instead of paying the $600 on the direct flight.
Mrs. MBM3 usually drives to PIT and hops WN for the remainder of the trip. It's the sort of route WN should be flying, but I doubt they could generate sufficient demand. |

Well, that is a definite, ^. In CLT, US is sooooo expensive. Generally speaking most other airlines are cheaper. I think that I have said it before, but CO out of CLT is generally very inexpensive if booked ahead of time.:-:

I haven't run into any trouble keeping my ancient iPod and my bride's nano synced. I think it helps to have an iMac; haven't tried iTunes on a PC.

Hmmm, the controversial plan to replace our license plates, cough for safety reasons cough, is suddenly negotiable if the legislature finds a way to produce the revenue the new plates would have generated.:rolleyes:

Yeah I agree, but it is odd that there is not more traffic. I guess us Clevelanders simply tired of the high fares and gave up. Interestingly, however, it used to be a great way to get to the EU on AF. More often then not, when people asked me for advice on reward tickets they were able to find a seat on CLE-PHL-CDG as many agents simply were not aware of the routing.
The old AF PHL-CDG and vice versa was also a good deal for paid C -- could usually save my clients a couple of thousand dollars per trip vs. US -- but that's probably why they handed over the route to the DL 752. |

I'm toying with an end-of-year MR to PDX. Is anyone else interested? The dates would be Dec 4-6... I'm still not sure I'll do it, but I wanted to see who else might be interested.
