FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

I stopped to get gas on my way to the dentist. The Shell station put an $85 temp authorization - the most I've ever seen - on my card account. The FIA AmEx does give a lot more detail than my AmEx-issued AmEx.

It would not have a place to make the needed tech stops....it MAYBE could make it on ferry via ANC island hopping.

TYR or GGG? TYR has 3 car companies all open quite late. (Avis/Hertz/national all there) I've been at TYR recently at 10pm with all of them still manned.

I gave some thought to Hyatt, but think I will just keep collecting :-:Points. With 1:1 transfer ratios to many airline programs (and the transfer bonus), and SPG redemption opportunities, I'm plenty happy just pursuing more is more.

No idea, but I remember ALCO talking about it. I think it may have been on the weekends.

I'd rate your risk of :rolleyes: as higher than mine at the moment. :D :-:

True. Although my significant :rolleyes: works with snot nosed :rolleyes:'s all day and that's seemed to have slowed her biological clock down significantly.

I think it was TYR where the Hertz closed at some silly hour on Fridays.

More on the baby travel needs:

I used a backpack instead of a stroller. Neither one of my kids liked being in a stroller so this made alot more sense especially when you can use the overhead to store it and I had two free hands when using it.

I call it a snugi, which might be a brand name for one of the front packs. Those are great for infants although I never trusted it so I always had my hand under the baby.
