Just completed my one-day turn yesterday. LAX-DEN-MIA-DEN-LAX, and got upgraded (e500s) on the LAX-DEN segment, which was nice to have a hot breakfast. Long day, but it was worth it for the miles... going for 1P at least this year.
Saw the aftermath of the cancelled PHX flight (returned to DEN due to turbulence) at DEN last night. We had some moderate turbulence on the DEN-MIA flight, but it wasn't bad on the return flight MIA-DEN.
The FA's were surprised to see me turn right back around and I told them about MR'ing... one FA said he had heard about it, but never met anyone who actually did it!

Short haul breakfasts have really improved on UA over the last year, no?

But I am also very thankful that instead of the "egg mcmuffin", we now get a full breakfast on a two hour flight.

Schedule Change
For those who haven't received notice yet, there appears to be a schedule change that will create problems for same day MR's.
Here is the revised itinerary I received today for my 9/24 and 9/30 runs:
LAX - DEN
6:00AM 9:18AM
DEN - MIA
10:50 4:29PM
MIA - ORD
3:44PM 5:59PM
ORD - LAX
8:00PM 10:32PM
Note that the return time from MIA is before the arrival time!

How will this be fixed? Is this UA screwing with us?

Buddy we need to talk.
I live in DC but am in the process of living on both coasts. Long Beach, California is my original home. By the way I like your new user id.
