Dunno. Just search JFK-SJO in F on usairways.com. If it's available, it should pop up.


OK - thanks! :D

I am looking at doing DRS, NUE, or MUC on Friday then heading to PRG.

It's more an issue of working as much of the day on Friday as possible (I likely will not leave for PRG until Friday). Even the DFW flight would cut deeply into the amount of time at the office on Friday. I will wait and see what the next week brings fare-wise.

Makes sense.

Last year I was in BRU for Saturday and Sunday only (but I made it count :D).

I made Saturday count a little too much and had nothing left for Sunday.

The picture quality in SD is tons better than Comcrap. I'm not HD-enabled right now and I'm OK with that, surprisingly. NHL Network is free here and I have yet to discover all the goodies in their version of the channel guide, but for a day and a half now I have had the little kid from the commercial in my head: "You should see his truck."

I was feeling rotten on the train over to Bruges. It took all my will not to puke on sbm12, who was sitting next to me, when we sat down for our first drink at the pub there.

Pricier than a GEG fare or Tampon run, but not bad for 56,812 BD miles. :D

It took all my control not to puke when guys started ordering mango and passion fruit flavored beer, but that's a different story.

Anyone want to front me some cash so I can enter the fortune telling business? :D

I don't recall that. I do recall drinking quite a lot of Kriek Lambic. ^

Lambics are good stuff. Perfectly acceptable beer choice. I'm also partial to Porters, Dubbels/Tripels, Bocks, Alsatian, Wheat (Dunkel or Blond), Strong Beer, Lager, Pilsner, etc... :D

When are you looking to do that run?!;)

You do know that the place we went to in Atlantic City had an apricot beer on tap?
