The ORD-OMA flight has some good ones: LEW/D AND WAR/M are on the upgrade list and KIN/K has cleared :-)

LUC/K is on standby for my (delayed) ORD-IAH flight tonight. Considering the flight is 2/3 empty, I'd say they have a very good chance of living up to their name ;-)

FRE/E
COL/D
STO/W
MAT/E
HAR/K
HAR/M
(there were plenty more but another FTer spotted my bag tag and we spent the entire pre-boarding time chatting)
Does anyone else see little stories in these collections of 4 letter words?
FRE/D was attracted to LYN/N's AUR/A as she was standing by the Smart CAR/T rental.
Carry on baggage is currently FRE/E, but it will be a COL/D day in heck before your seat MAT/E will HAR/K upon your request for assistance to STO/W your bag, because it may cause HAR/M to their back.

I wonder if that's the same COL/D that we've seen in other posts.
It can't be too long until Tom Butler and Dawn Heath are waitlisted together...

How'd I miss this thread for so long?
I guess I'm still a COL/T, even though I just retired!

POR/K
FAR/T
POK/E
and my favorite:
BRO/M (this one was me actually, #15 on a list of 32). What I loved though was arriving in SFO, and seeing a flight departing for ORD, with the upgrade list at 47 people!!
