It has hit MR Deals, so likely won't be around too long. Check out Copa fares to MEX. Any U.S. Copa Gateway to MEX is $225a/i (H Fare, 150% EQM, bookable on Teh Orbtz). Can do open jaws. I'm in for two sets...

LAX-PTY-MEX-PTY-MIA, MCO-PTY-MEX-PTY-LAX.

21,751 EQM for $450 (2cpeqm). :-:

Y routings to the UK are definitely not the way to go with that program (any program actually, but ...)

Greetings Box from IAD RCC.

Took the new aerotrain at IAD. Lots more walking now to get to the gate which is a good thing. To the A & C gates from security once you get on the train it takes one minute to get to A gates and another 2 minutes to get to C gates.

Glad they have the system working!

Very nice - too bad getting to a CM gateway would blow an extra day for me :(

Another good thing about aerotrain is one can get food at the A gates with Fuddruckers. Can also go to B gates where there is Five Guys.

Engineers abound here still running checks. Couple of guys were measuring the gap at each stop. Guess they don't want to run the Mind the Gap announcements over the PA.

Just found four UA J award seats for the day we need ^ ^ :p :p :p I'd have loved to try ANA and stop for 3hrs at NRT, but UA has lie-flat seats, leaves two hours later, and arrives three hours earlier.

The lack of change fees on CO awards is truly wonderful!!!

Over the weekend - current forecasts are more ambiguous than normal.
