FlyerTalk on CNN

Just saw a news article on CNN with an interview with Randy Peterson and talking about milage runs and FlyerTalk.

Heard it at work today, seemed like a pretty interesting segment.

Sure beat the rest of the morning where they beat the TSA pat down story to death as best they could

I guess I'm just really use to tuning CNN out...We have it running 24/7 in the OPs center I work in...because I missed that one.

As others have said it was all about Opt-Out day and TSA pat downs...

I think Canarsie & another FTer were in the video too. What's Barbara Kessler's handle? Wow, NY>CA for lunch.

Did Randy say 17,000,000 miles flown? Wow!!
