Right, but when I had to do local off-sites my food and beverage were part of the event. That was $$$ that didn't come from personal budget.

Call the OPSC (not elite desk) for the bump before the flight.

I know, it just bummed me out to see everyone else flitting about while I was earthbound.

I'm kinda hoping to encounter some pre-holiday glitches and overbookings. Oh, and if you recall upthread my concern with my ticket - it's still not ticketed, but I got 1B assigned via OPSC so I stop hyperventilating. And they declined to bump me to gold :P I'll try again after the outbound. If posts by the weekend i'll be over for the return.

I'm just excited for low-50s in LAS on Saturday...I should pack shorts for that.

It has been warming up here in LAS the past few days. ^

Just in time for me move away on Tuesday. :rolleyes:

I've had feelings like that before. Fortunately, Northwelta has a $97 walk-up fare from MSP to MKE (via DTW each way) on Saturdays...great for when I feel the urge to fly for no apparent reason.

How's Northwelta lately? Had a friend here last week who lives near Atlanta (thus obviously with Northwelta) who is not pleased with them at all lately.

Allegedly they're taking Woodford away from us in the SkyClubs (after losing fresh cheese, more breakfast options, etc.). This might lead to a rebellion, 1776-style.

NFLNetwork/Live was advertised on the NFL's website as televising the game. In fact half the program was bad studio analysis and the other half was commercials and some plays in real time.

Way to see the positive in an unfortunate situation.
