And yes, I take my obligations, 'seriously'!;)

Sweet.

I'm adding it to my "places to move to" list. :D

In other news and from the file of "why?", local news in CLT is reporting that USeless is commencing year round CLT-FCO. Not sure why as PHL already has, but I suppose that having options is not a bad thing.

Come to think of it, I suppose for the BMI types, a "Y-Up" fare or its ilk on CLT-HNL wouldn't be such a bad thing! either^

US is receiving a bunch of new A330s, and doesn't really know what to do with them.

They certainly will not configure Row 1 the same as they did on the first ones that they have. :rolleyes:

I always liked the NW A330s. Haven't flown the USeless version thereof. Just done the 767 wide body.

The US 330s had the first row originally configured as first class flat sleeper seats. But US quickly went to two class and the seats remained. ^

They were among the best airline seats in the world for quite a while and if you were Chairman's Preferred, you could get one without much trouble. I never missed but the HP gang changed that along with a lot of other things that drove many of us away. :td:

Now they have announced a reconfiguration of Envoy class in the 330s which will be completed in, get this, 2012. :rolleyes:

Are you on the mind that it was the US-West that ruined US-East? I always thought both were pretty :rolleyes: To me, it all started to go to you know what in a hand basket when the UA-US merger blew up.

Actually it started but the field was reversed for a little while before the HP takeover. For years there was no better airline elite status than US Chairman's and it stayed that way until the takeover.

Oh i fully understand it, and have even helped to build an igloo :D

I walked across Lake Winnipesaukee before it was even fully frozen.

I called my mom from the edge of a spring fed area that was not frozen and sent her a pic, she was freaking out :D

I'd choose to live in a place that got 30"+ of snow if I could continue my work as normal.

The 332s (I think) should be done pretty quickly as the new seats just "fit" right in. The 333s (I may have the two types swapped) apparently have some other issues causing a bit of a delay in getting them done. The recent delivery they just took (within the last 2 weeks) already has the new seats.

And it isn't all that bad considering that CO is going to take to the end of 2011 for the 777s and into 2012 for the 752s IIRC.

Aye. I've been to Quebec City and other snowy locales in winter. There's a difference between seeing lots of snow where it is supposed to be, and watching it bucket down onto banana trees. :D

Agreed.

I like the swiss alps in the winter, I will go back in 2011 for the final year of the universe :D

Will chances of EUA improve from SFO to EWR at the apocalypse, and should we hold LK responsible for all of this ........ Discuss .....:p:D

I have no use for nor do I any longer at all like snow. I would not care if I never saw another flake. I have had enough of it.
