That's a lot of clicking.

EU winter fares in general have been a lot higher than last year until a few weeks before departure. The fact that PRG is not a direct TATL city (except OK) doesn't help wrt pricing. Hopefully, fares will drop. In the alternative, perhaps we could do a EU gateway city with more competitive fares.

Some of us have already booked our (reward) tickets to PRG.

Make that 3 for 3 on the snacks for a lowly Plat.

Boeing samples are 3-3-3 in Y and 2-2-2 in J just like a 767. boeing paperwork compares to a 763.... 242-317 passenger(for -3 high density short range)

Yea, the 787 is more of a 767 replacement than a 777. The 767's are 2-3-2, not 3-3-3 even though the 787 will be 3-3-3. The 787 is narrower (4" according to wiki) so that'll make Y more :rolleyes::mad::rolleyes:.

Does AA provide free snacks to EXP's stuck in Y?

I would hope they give it to EXP's since I am getting it as Plat

As it stands now, 27th will likely be the tail end of the hard freeze (looks like temps will be below or around freezing for a full day). Then again, this is an 8-16 day long-range model. Timing could be off a bit. The weather geeks (and their models) seem to be in pretty decent agreement that X-Mas week will see High pressure slide down the front of the Rockies at some point, bringing in some very cold air to the Deep South. We shall see. :D

Grrrr...thats the day of my fun routing back to NYC from IAH on UA. Id rather get bumps from oversold flights than hear weather excuses.:mad:

Looks like the Red Bull Air Race is starting to put together schedules. My wife and I really want to go but will probably only be able to do the US or Canada tour. Is there any interest for a mini DO once we find out more information?

I'd be interested in Canada esp if June or after...

Yes, Y on the CO 787s will probably not be a very good experience at all. But, with the longer routes the 787 will fly, no FTer should be in Y anyway. :)
