ALCO, you still heading to IST via ORD, or did you reroute?

Nevermind. $430a/i is the cheapest I see... not the $295a/i advertised in teh thread title.

It is just that the outbounds are high that weekend. On other weekends the $295 is possible.

I love real chocolate, but I hate anything chocolate flavored.

I saw the $295 a couple of days ago but it disappeared.

It required routing EWR-MXP-BCN but it was cheap. I had no idea LH operated a little mini-hub out of MXP.

Still going via ORD. .bomb says my IAH-ORD is supposed to be on time, FWIW. The inbound aircraft is due to depart ORD for IAH in about 30 minutes. I've been checking up on it on .bomb every once in awhile.

Ok. Here's the deal. You need to bake several and ship one each to all those boxers who have declared an interest. Then we will vote!

It's their new Lufty Italia concept.

Random question of the day.

I want to do IAH-MUC//SZG-IAH but CO says it doesn't offer codeshares out of SZG. Should I just call to get the itinerary or should I put the IAH-MUC-IAH flights on hold?

Working on packing (for three trips and two weeks; I have five bags packed with at least another two to go and that doesn't include anything that belongs to Plus1) so that puts us to 8, plus a booster seat. If we weren't elite, what would we do? Ship UPS I guess! ;)

A very Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it; and to others, Happy Holidays!!!! I *HEART* the box!

Blue boxes are always good! Have a safe, happy and wonderful holiday. We *heart* the Bag family too!

Use a real booking engine and don't worry about it. :-:

Or call it in. No booking fees for platinums.

You should be :-: with respect to weather around here. Currently 33F and climbing (38F overnight). Rain is supposed to start in a couple hours and continue non-stop through tomorrow afternoon (1-2" total), when it gets back down to freezing and we get snow, by which point you'll probably be visiting the Ayasofia.
