I play slots if I play at all - last time I played tables was 2004. I'm honestly not used to paying for every round either...perk of the job I guess. :o

I just booked my positioning flight to SNA. I'm flying CO out there from PHL via IAH on Friday night. I think I'll sleep in the airport but not positive. I'm on the same flights as you are for the outbound (via PDX) and then on the OKC-DEN and SFO-SNA flights you are on, going to SEA in between on Sunday.

S.

Arggghhh...

Schedule changed overnight and now it looks like my routings don't work. I have about 6 hours to figure out if I need to cancel my CO positioning flight or not. :mad:

NW's Airbus equipment has a roomier Y seat than CO's 737s do. But if you get on a NW DC-9 or 757, it's pretty tight back there. Even the F pitch sucks on the DC-9s.

But the upgrades in NW are almost automatic for Plats and Golds and that DC9 FC seat is still head and shoulders better than any seat behind the curtain.

Oh I totally agree. I actually sometimes look for the DC-9s and purposefully book on them. The seats aren't all that comfortable, but they sure are fun planes to fly on!

why oh why do airline clubs have self-serve bars....these are bad for me. :D

P.S. NW DC-9's F section just has a larger version of the old CO Y seat.

Page 787. Does this mean we have to go on strike to delay moving this thread forward for 3 years? :rolleyes:

I feel so light and composite-fiber posting this. @:-)

Here's the obligatory Page 787 nuts reference. The Box is being held together much better than the aircraft. LOL.
