Does anyone know if the Aeromexico ERJ-190 has a bulkhead wall between coach and FC? Or is it a curtain?

Do you know if they sell hot sauce at MSY? I am running quite low and am tired of the stuff I got in Buffalo. I will be doing an MSY turn soon if they sell hot sauce at the airport.

In other news, I am going to try to go to SLC this weekend for a funeral One of my favorite professors passed away very unexpectedly last weekend.

The 2 LA made hot sauces widely sold here are Tabasco and Crystal. There are different flavors and varieties of each. I haven't looked specifically but I'm certain that you can get Tabasco at MSY. and it's also available across the country in supermarkets and liquor stores.

If you're looking for something else, be more specific.

Additional info:

Wegman's, with 11 stores in and around Buffalo carries at least 6 varieties of Tabasco and also has Crystal. Based on past experience with their stores, I'd expect that they have many more brands and varieties.

They are evil. Once we were about to board a flight from CAI to TLV and were detained for about 15 minutes because they required us to "prove" we were in Egypt. Of course, the incoming boarding pass and passport stamp were insufficient for them.

You were lucky. I spent about 3-4 hours total waiting in a tiny room lobby.

Generally referred to in here as "Texas Pete". After all, this is Cholula country.

Speaking of which, does this stuff ever go bad? I have a magnum of Cholula left over from the 2007 or 2008 PBI meet. It's looking a bit thick but has no expiration date that I can find.

Never goes "bad" per se. Just harmless oxidation over time which darkens it and thickens it.

I'm looking for Crystal! I'm not a huge fan of Tabasco, and we already have a decent supply of Cholula (although donations are always appreciated, Cholula ). I'm looking to find Crystal in an airport somewhere since I can't seem to find it here in NYC (although I'll admit I haven't been looking too hard). In Buffalo I can get Anchor Bar hot sauce in the terminal I think.

Thanks... it's a huge loss for my school and the aviation community in SLC. He had the best story about baking sweet buns in the back of a C-5 Galaxy and how CBP kept trying to eat them.

I got a 17.5k one-way award coming back Sunday night SLC-ATL-LGA; figured that's worth not having to risk going standby. For the first time in my life, I was thinking how I'd rather take JetBlue than a Delta 757

Why not take the easy way - AMAZON.COM

it'll be cheaper than an airport, even if you don't have prime and have to pay shipping.

I'll make it even easier for you, Gristedes has it.

An alternative, if you really want to do an MR, come to MSY but instead of a quick turn, take a shuttle down to the French Quarter. There's a shop in the French Market that has at least 500 different hot sauces.
