I just bet an airfare with my mother the seasoned travel agent...
Here's the bet, and please use the honor system and don't look it up: EWR-SEA R/T for two people in F, Monday-Monday for 14 days, outbound on Labor Day Monday. I said that a single ticket would be no more than $1400AI, while she countered that the fare would be closer to $2000 than $1400. Let's see who in Teh Box would win or lose on that action. Remember, no cheating...just an instinct answer. |
If only TK would open up IST-JNB. It gets in early enough that I could fly Air Namibia JNB-WDH-WVB, for cheaper than my one-way JNB-WVB with SA. I could also drop MS, whilst not losing out on a new carrier to try (SW).

I am sure they get a chuckle out of it, even if we do rant every now and then and toss poop references around like monkeys at the zoo.
Thanks for joining us folks on Smith Street and, more importantly, thanks for caring. |

Remember, no cheating...just an instinct answer. My guess is that a full paid F fare is ~$2600 but that there are pleny of ways to do it for ~$1500 if the BCOUP fares are there on that route. ETA: I just checked my answers. Quite interesting. Spoiler below for the cheaters in the crowd, albeit in white text. Code:

The scary part is that we're mostly the stable group rather than the foaming/ranting crowd. :eek:

I take it that all the BCOUP fares I see on FareCompare Y-UP search are equivalent to UA HRUPMY or US A00US____ fares - as in, actual F fares, and not elite-only full-fare coach upgrades?

I know. I had to try 4 agents until I found one who would let me change from NRT-IAH-SEA to NRt-EWR-SEA to get ship 13 with the lie flat seats.

I am sure it is in the plan, but don't forget to take the MTR down to Lantau and then ride the cable cars to the island for a meet and greet with "Big Buddha"! It was an awesome experience. One felt really close to Asian Culture especially with the Starbucks in the Village at the base.:p
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, it appears so after 55 pages of box chatter things better here now that filling I lost Wed afternoon has been replaced Noted from the Sidney Playing vide0 "Otters do not make good pets and are illegal to own personally..." and HAPPY BIRTHDAY SDM-Here's to many more ^ |
