Howdy BigPoppaCO - it's certainly been a while...plus we have yet to get a good row here going over a fat pax, faux instant elite status or how NW Y, with deification on by a FA, is preferable to a CO RJ (...although TWA Fan 1 is trying hard to rival you! )

There have been a few good mistake fares over the past year (MSP-LGW in full Y for ~$600, UA's US - New Zealand J fare booboo and a strangely cheap CO H fare from HSV to ANC). Beyond that the forums been surprisingly good natured (for the most part) as Scott (CO Insider) can help clear up common misconceptions and everyone here gets a kick out of the DO's.

Hope all's well!

PS> We also have the Penalty Box for all our off topic, rambling (read: drunk) comments.

Good of you to chime in - hope all is well. You are still flying CO, I assume.

Thanks! Yes, still flying CO but I am SEA based now (I work for a small software company in the Redmond area, you may have heard of it) and don't fly nearly as much as I used to; I am only at 60K EQMs and most likely wont make plat. That being said, its been totally worth it as I spend way more time at home and can actually eat healthy.

BigPoppaCO jr. was born on 9/14/07 and already has a transcon under his belt. I want to wish everyone a wonderful holiday and a happy and healthy new year.

Wow -- congratulations. My first inclination is to think that that is traditionally just before or at the start of fall tour

Perhaps you'll be truckin' out to NYC on January 26?

Congrats! Let me be the first to make sure you're aware of SeaDoo! This year is the 10th anniversary so save the date - Aug 8-10. Also, welcome back!
