My reading of this is that it's an MPM and Routing Fare (I think)...

[KVS Availability Tool 5.1.7/Diamond - Routing Rules: PHL-MNL/CO/LLXSL61/577 USD]

I don't believe you can deviate from the routing expressly stated in the rule, even though MPM is stated as 10,281 via pacific. Someone more knowledgeable about these fares may have a better answer.

This is an L fare with a $578 base. Not sure what fare you're looking at, but I doubt the rules are much different.

This is what is in the MR Deals thread at 4.9cpEQM. I would be willing to give up on the Island Hopper and gain the 750EQM that come from avoiding that flight. 10,281 seems a little low, IIRC.

ETA: There are slightly more expensive versions of this fare that do not involve hopping scattered from January to April.

The fact that LAX-GUM routing rules specifically include the Hopper flights would appear to indicate that Hopper is not possible on PHL-MNL

He got it to work by forcing the Q200 to EWR, I think.

I'm pretty sure that if both MPM and explicit routing are listed then the explicit applies.

aloha box.

Contemplating 5 Guys for lunch. :-:
Apparently my hinting I might be exiting stage left earlier in the week was actually picked-up on and this morning I've entertained casual conversations about how things are going with the CEO, Dir. of HR, and a few :rolleyes:'s.

As a supplement to the broadcast it sucks. It's terrible. Given the troubles they have in securing nationwide coverage for their channel I'm really surprised they're not streaming the game. At the least put the game in a box when they do all that side crap. :-:

I get they want the channel on all providers, but I don't think streaming it will cannibalize people's desire for the channel. Watching on a real TV vs. a tiny box on a computer screen (even if you output that to a HDTV) is a much better experience. :-:

The last few episodes have been very good. The hispanic wife has some decent one-liners, particularly the one about "my son is going to die a virgin."

The swing joke from the last show had me dying. My wife says she never saw me laugh like that. Figuring we have been together for 6.5 years, it gave me (at least) a 7 year laugh. :-:

My life gets more interesting by the minute.

ETA: Maybe that phone call worked and fended off the TSA. Another TripAlert has me back on time. :D

Off the record is boring. It's less boring when it's posted. :D:p:-:

For those Houstonians in the city this weekend, St. Arnold's is hosting their annual pub crawl: http://www.saintarnold.com/cgi-bin/d...0091209010220/

Sounds like a fun time for those in the Box. ^

$1000.00 to GUM is pretty :rolleyes: but I guess as CO is the only carrier that flies there it is no surprise.

The Canuck and I were laughing at that one for several minutes too. :-:

Pretty amazing I know what you're talking about reading this entirely out of context. It was that funny. I agree to those that think this is one of the best sitcoms currently on TV.

The black and white "glamour shots" photo of the two gay guys (hung above the fire place) was pretty humorous too, I thought.

For those looking for a MR opportunity, there appears to be SAT-BOS o/w's available for $79.

CO is stingy when it comes to the availability and sale of one-ways though... Trying to go BOS-IAH o/w gives me only options with multiple connections, yet the r/t options are the non-stop flights. :rolleyes:

That is just a silly premise.
