My ticket broker that I used in AC sent me an Omaha pack of filets, burgers, and lobster tails one year as a thanks for my business. The chocolate tower from the year before was much preferred. :rolleyes:

For any boxers doing upcoming MSP-GEG runs. UA just went through a schedule change blitz.

My SFO-GEG flight upgraded to a CR7 so I had them move me to F. :D

Speaking of MSP-GEG runs, if any Boxers are up in MSP on one and want to grab a drink or three before heading out, let me know.

Random thought.

I just noticed that with a lot of the "sale" F fares UA has posted, UA ineveitabley ends upgauges the equipment for those routes. To mind, I'm thinking TPA-IAD (there's now a 752 on that route) and now I see it with SFO-GEG.

Is it possible that the MR's are impacting the yields in a positive way but UA hasn't figure out it's oriented with the price of said tix?

It would be pretty damned funny if that was the case.

What was it before? A CRJ? At least it's a SkyWest CR7 (I'm assuming it is) and not one of those nasty Mesa ones they've been converting all the E70s into ATL into recently.

I won't have my final CO EQMs until December 30. I'll end up the year around 97,000 EQMs on CO and 105,000 on UA.

Yeah, it was a CRJ. I'm pretty sure it's a Skywest as those are the only RJs that fly in/out of SFO.

Mmm, just heated up some leftover lasagna we had in the freezer for lunch. I had forgotten how damn good this stuff was when I made it back in October. I should write down what I did to make this before I forget it, since it was not made from a recipe (well, the sauce was from a cookbook written by a college friend).

I'm always amazed at how nice SkyWest keeps those planes looking inside and out. Then you get on a Mesa one and it looks like it hasn't seen any kind of maintenance in a good five years. NW's LBJ-era DC-9s tend to look brand new compared to the Mesa CR7s I've been stuck on in recent months. It's almost like Mesa intentionally tries to trash those things.

Not bad...for a General Member. I wish I had that many Lifetime EQM's. Doesnt J.Edward usually create a year end EQM count thread?
