FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

I am happy. I so need to enroll in the ALCO or SBM12 Alcohol Training Program if I ever expect to make it past 2 drinks in an evening. I know I got do the Box course but the ALCO/SBM12 course are much more intense and less time consumming!!

3-7" of snow around Chicago in the next day or so. Close to a foot in some outlying areas west and north of the city.

This is CO we're talking about, not UA. No way they put him on a non-partner flight for a VDB reroute. It would probably take some serious tooth-pulling just to get a reroute onto UA or US.

CO has been consistently putting me on AA . My last four VDBs have all seen me fly AA to get home.

Step 1: Begin drinking beer at 10:00am in Czech/Belgian/Bavarian/Austrian Bar
Step 2: Flash-forward about 16 hours
Step 3: Avoid cameras in Karaoke Bars.

Very interesting. Were these intra-Texas flights, where DFW was the only real alternative, or something different?

Don't think that'd be a problem -- I'm pretty 'upscale', myself!;):D

Well that all depends. If you are in a small market will no alternative you will be fine. PHX may not fit that bill. CO re-routed me several times on AA outta LBB!

One was ELP-IAH which I understood and the other was MIA-IAH (again, makes sense).

The other two were weird though, CAE-DFW-IAH rather than putting me on DL and DEN-ORD-IAH.
