I haven't seen it recently but don't know if it's only out at certain times. (It's not there right now)

I really enjoyed that DO when I went in 2015. GRALISTAIR and I actually carpooled there. Check out the Four Roses tour if you get a chance; that got me hooked on their bourbons, specifically the Small Batch and Single Barrel (stay away from their standard offering).

Yes it was a good do with really good people. ^ I drank way too much bourbon though

As I'm about to have my first ever taste of EVA's Royal Laurel class on the SEA-TPE route in less than two weeks, I can't help but imagine if DL plans to enter this route and compete with BR in the future. Considering TPE's geographical location and the fact that majority of BR's SEA passengers connect onward beyond TPE to other cities, could DL benefit by pax transiting to CI's regional routes? Especially those such as BKK, SIN, KUL, MNL, CGK, DPS, etc that are unserved by DAL?

Having said that, I'm legit excited to experience BR's RL as I've heard many good things about it - both hard and soft. Just as excited as I was in the days leading up to my departure with AF J out of YVR last month. AF's so-called "BEST" seat is indeed the best hard transatlantic product I have experienced up to date. Time will tell if I can make the same transpacific judgement for BR's product.

Happy birthday. I had no idea as you don't look any older than you did at the DL ATL DO in August. We should have put a candle in the key lime pie in your honor.

I follow a strict beauty regimen. It involves drinking the blood of Silver Medallions by the light of the full moon.

As a newly-status-matched Silver Medallion, how concerned should I be?

On an ATL-PBI flight last week and the FA proudly announces we there are 3 ATL based FA and one MCO based FA.
Dont know the guy next to me but he leans in and says “at least there will be good service from one of the four”. Didn’t the guy but he made me laugh and chuckle.
