FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

My better half just landed in PHX and was giving me :rolleyes: about it being cold. Apparently I neglected to tell her to expect to gate check her bag as the overhead bins on the CRJ-900 aren't very large. I suppose I'll need to bring that up again for our CRJ-700 flight on the way home.

Is this SFO-AMS?

I'm doing EWR-FRA-LHR tomorrow. Nothing too exciting, though amazingly I don't have a EWR-FRA line yet. :eek:

How did you get on this flight? :confused:

I ran through all of these hoops planning my honeymoon as well - it's fun and will likely happen again when you least expect it. I recommend checking the records daily until you are sitting on the plane ready to go.

Is anyone in the box going to be flying UA between now and Monday?

I just logged into my CO.com account and am seeing a bit of progress.

The EWR - MRS flights are restored. :-:
CDG - DXB on EK is now confirmed. :eek::eek:
I'm waitlisted on three different EK flights to MLE :cool:
MLE - SIN is now in Y :mad::mad::mad::rolleyes:
SIN - EWR is now back to F. :D

During my fiasco on thursday, the agent checked in every few minutes, I actually sent my phone thru x-ray machine while on hold with CO.
If it is any consolation that MLE-SIN flight is short and the lounge at MLE is :rolleyes: at best, the only place to get a drink at the airport is the duty free shop, cold Tiger beer for 1 USD.

Via FRA (not direct). :-:

Yeah, I'm sure there will be much more :rolleyes: between now and Augustus. I'm well versed in award ticket shenanigans so I'm in full CMA mode.

But yes, I'd bet dollars to donuts a thread will be started along the lines of CO ruined my honeymoon. :cool::D

Yeah. And a lot can and will change between now and August. I'll get back up front, and if I don't, not the end of the world.

I'll be gunning for C on this flight though as we'll have about 18 hours to kick-it in SIN and I'd like to hang out with a friend that lives there. And be somewhat awake for it.

It's only legal tender for all debts, public and private. The banks have no per se obligation to take your coins.

A while back, I tried to pay my Chase credit card bill with coins at a Chase branch. They accepted some, but not all, of the coins I had. I had over 2:eek:k coins in my car. They claimed their vault was not big enough for all of them. I didn't make a big issue of it, as I had other conversion options.
