On the "cleared" list for my ORD-DEN flight there is a DIC/K :eek:

On the standby list there is also a PRI/M and a very appropriate TEE/D :D

I'd be teed too if I was that low on the stanby list (which is currently 123 people long...

Sorry for OT, but g_leyser, which flight are you on tonight? Any VDB opportunities today? I'll be on the last IAD-DEN flight tomorrow. It seems to be oversold but would like some data points for comparison :)

As far as funny abbreviation, I saw COC/K in ORD last week :D

I remember thinking "mayyybe they should do ABCD/E instead, seeing as four letters is just too enticing" when the screens first went up. But that's me, and my mind has been in the gutter all along.

Ahaaaa. You mean, the dean? ;) I'm not quite an alumni yet.

I started calling a friend SPA/M after their upgrade didn't clear, they didn't like the moniker.
