Gonna be a fun weekend.

Home is a relative term of course!! In your case Home = Airworld!! :D

slow night here and at work, think it is time to kick back and mix up some various drinks to experiment with.

It was a little Box micro-DO in the C-South PClub. Ran into ALCO, ssullivan, and a certain CO employee.

First time I've randomly ran into people from the Box.

I guess I understand the rationale for this practice, but they did leave my $300 on the table.

WN won't give you a refundable fare to FLL?

Firefox 3.6 instant preview themes are nifty, but not too useful, looks cluttered. I did find a basic blue one I like, no images and such, its there now to sample the goods.

I'm currently rocking Rainbow Waves (in the "abstract" section). Mostly clean white/light blue with just a bit of bright-color-pop-art splash in a non-obtrusive place. :)

Ohhhhh, okay. Just a suggestion. IAD's no fun unless someone's coming with a car to collect you.

Same here. I guess my general rule is that if we've met in person, it's time for FB.

If you lived in Upstate new york and had a daughter that was an FA with CO Express out of CLE, I'd think I met your daughter last week CLE-CLT :D

I'll be coming from SFO; flying WN to FLL will take an entire day. The real problem is that I need to be in MIA as early in the day as possible (see below).

B6 does have a refundable fare SFO-FLL, but it is a redeye. VX has a refundable fare to MIA, but it gets in too late. Unfortunately the AA SFO-MIA is the only flight I can realistically take, and AA wouldn't sell me a refundable fare. Their loss.

Hyatt people - is there a certain amount of time one needs to use a free night in?

Also - if I book a HP under my account but don't show up the hotel with teh Mister, will this be a problem? Works with Hilton (knocks on wood).

VX is flying to FLL now, did you try it too? They are right next to the CO desk and gates in fact, I THINK Co is doing their ground handling.

NM i just looked, it is FLL, you used MIA area generically.

Can't help with the second question but a Next Big Thing / FFN needs to be used by the end of March (unless an extension is granted). I make a point of using mine before the deadlines.

Thanks. AA was kind enough to overnight me at a Hyatt in BOS last October :rolleyes: so one more stay would get us a free night - let's hope they aren't paying attention (when the hubby checks in w/o me next weekend).

Let's also hope I chose the free stay option! :D I signed up a while ago - I'm going to have to check on that.
