    I know, especially since we'll all be crossing the border this way in a couple of years as The Fares Are Too Damn High, and I don't do Greyhound. : D

    Best news quote ever:

    Hmmm -- did some people have nothing to do?

    Well hell.

    CPU cleared for Tuesday night's flight LAX-IAD. Was going to SDC to Wed. AM rather than get home at 1 AM.

    Now I have to decide between assured transcon F and rolling the bones on an upgrade on the new flight.

    First world problems, I know, but still a complication.

    Worst case, my only coach seat tomorrow is 9D on the 757 -- bumpage would be awesome, but tomorrow's itinerary gets me home by dinner. :cool:

    I never got home by dinner but that was my fault. Only problem with 9d is you can see F. :eek: :)

    F4 still -- I just need to keep waiting. Glad the 763 cleared. :cool:

    763 is key. :). But row 17 doesnt suck if you can get it. Those seats are remarkably comfy.

    Wait about 5 years for all the stuff in Doha to be completed. The new airport is scheduled to open this month, and features the longest runway?!?! in the middle east. Its so the A380s can take off fully loaded, in the hot desert.

    This was from last month when I started my journey at DOH. Woman in the abaya/burkha was flying Global First, and yes, that is all her luggage.

    Am I the only one that thinks the sign is somewhat misleading? Its not a non stop flight

    Wasn't too bad at sunset, but managed to lose Weatherboy on the epic trek to the taxi stand. That, plus waiting in the 150-person queue for a cab, was the miserable part. I was in so much pain it wasn't funny.

    I thought the new airport was scheduled to open on 12/12/12. Has that been changed?
  3. desamo Gold Member

    I read for the Do threads. I'm enjoying the Dubai Do immensely. Other than that, I occasionally check in on luggage debates.

    As long as you stay loyal to the dear respected Supreme Leader Jeff Smisek, he will take good care of you as promised, no matter which United flight you take.

    Eek indeed! Who needs women? :D

    Some of the best minions of the dear respected Supreme Leader are women. :)
