21 XO-OOO-XO
22 SS-OOO-OO

24 OO-XOX-OO
25 OX-OOO-XO


Not high, but with 21, 22 and 23 open I don't know that your fears about lie-flat coach are much to worry about.

Rather than gamble on lie-flat coach from the beginning, I decided to try and at least guarantee a set of 2 to myself. If boarding completes and 21, 22 or 23 are still open, I'll move.

The s/o's flight had over 100 seats open. A co-worker selected a middle in coach on the kiosk an hour prior to departure to ensure a row to herself. When she board, a :rolleyes: was sitting in the window.

I don't sleep well on planes but am moderately better curled up in the two seats against the window anyway. Lie-flat coach is about 23" too short for me to lie flat ;)

It looked slightly angled up, but maybe it's the angle of the picture.

Yeah, but off-peak fares to HKG regularly dropped to $800-$900 (sometimes even less) in previous years.

I did it for $650 2 years ago for Chinese New Year.

And US metal does earn 500 minimums on OnePass credit for OP elites.

The only two SQ options for *A members are LAX-NRT-SIN or JFK-FRA-SIN.

SFO-HKG/ICN-SIN are 77Ws.

D'oh. Guess I won't get those lines on SQ.

The :rolleyes: might not be a DB - could be someone who was unknowingly put there by a GA.

Thanks^

over double the price on CO(rdu-ewr-bna v rdu-clt-bna) and we've got this new enhanced travel system we must use, too soon to try and abuse

ETA, UA does go there but mainly via ORD and not sure I want to really mess with that this time of year.
CLT-BNA will be a new line(but so would ORD-BNA or IAD-BNA)

EWR-SIN in a SWUable fare at $1100 is a far better option then HKG.

20,500 EQMs before DEQM too. :)

And it all starts with a p.s. flight at 6 AM...

Would definitely be fun to do some with the fellow EWR/PHL-based Boxizens!!

The first time me and my friend ever went flying together was on the MR. It just happened to work that 3 weeks later I was able to standby onto the same ERJ-145 :rolleyes: as him. At least we were in fake F.

Awesome pics ALCO. How hot was it in the desert?

Is check-in broken for anyone else? I put my OP# in and it couldn't find a reservation. I put the conf # in and it works just fine and my OP# and status show up...

In 21A right now with an empty middle section.
