Yep - but I enjoy traveling way too much to give 'em up! I always use 'em myself. One of the (greedy) attorneys here sells his to a broker. However, some of the nicer guys give me theirs. You know, those expiration dates on the drink coupons are meaningless, right?

What airport are you near these days?

We've already pointed out the Justin/Rumours Lindsey hair connection.

I don't know any domestic airlines with good food.

They're very dependable. I can normally get a $75-$80 ticket to fly home to see my family, too (Chicago to KC).

Livia- if you get a lot of rapid rewards tickets, you should totally auction an extra one on Ebay if you're not going to use one. You can make a ton of cash off it!
Like I said, SW isn't any cheaper than Continental where I am - in fact it's more. Otherwise I'd be all over SW now that they fly to Philly.

I've seen pics but figured it was one of those legends like America's streets being paved with gold.

I've only flown with ATA, which is based out of Indianapolis. They only go to vacation-y places, I believe. They're great, though.

Why the frick do they need a piano and player on an airplane?! No wonder the tickets cost too freakin' much. LOL Why not get rid of the piano and player and lower the price so those of us not named Bill Gates can ride first class. Geez.

You'd pay it if they had a certain white-shirted guitarist, no doubt.

Mmmm I'm not sure. I've only flown to Cancun with them, since that's the ONLY PLACE my parents EVER want to go on Vacation. -_- I'm like, "Send me to England! Send me to Germany!" but they ALWAYS go to Cancun. It gets hella old after a while. But everyone knows us there.

My sister & mom are going to Cancun... sometime this December, I think, with ATA.

Here's their website: http://www.ata.com/ I guess they DO go to Philly & Houston. Huh. You learn something new every day.

An insider told me Christine McVie was approached about playing the piano on board but she turned it down due to the amount of travelling involved...

I usually do Delta but other than them, i've been on Lufthansa and Midway (like being on a prop plane...scared the hell out of me). Now that Southwest is here and it's dirt cheap to fly out of Philadelphia with them, i'll use Southwest
