For my site visit to middle-of-nowhere, deep south, I've discovered the time and reimbursed cost of the following two options are the same:
* Driving 10 hours each way, * Driving the hour to the airport and flying but only getting EQM for 4 * 500 mile segments (two each way). Does the Box suggest driving and putting the extra $400 above car operating costs into maintenance or flying? |
Was just looking at the COPA Air and thought it interesting that they still list the NWA lounges as accessable by the President's Club members. OOPS!!

Is that really a question? Fly. A 10 hour drive isn't worth it, especially with the wear on your car. If a rental it is MAYBE a bit better but still not a good idea. |

OMG - Ford cannot figure out the proper size for a throw-our bearing for my vehicle.

Ten hour drives sometimes turn into 25 hour drives. This is a fail for driving!!

Try SeatCounter. It should give you an idea of whether the front cabin is booked up.

Flights can be just as easily delayed with a blizzard or such. But voluntarily subjecting oneself to that much driving when there are other options available seems foolhardy at best.

Seats in exit rows no assigned for both weekends. I now just need the proper documentation for the trip and I am set!! |

The time's the same and the four flights are on Barbie jets, so the car would be more comfortable and I could probably get more work done :eek: I could at least use the phone ;)
Worried about depreciation on a 1998 Ford Escort with 189,000 miles? |
