When on AA, do as the AAeans do
You probably know this already, but disembarkation on American is handled in pretty much the same way as on Delta. This is the wrong technique.
Well, I fly to LAS on Saturday on AA in F. I fly back to BNA on Tuesday on DL (likely Y). I fly to WAS on Wednesday on DL (likely Y). I fly back to BNA on Thursday on DL (likely Y). Then, I have a 50/50 chance of heading off for March Madness at one of the regionals. I'll get to do many things in many cities.

I was just reading the thread about domestic 757 business class. While scrolling, I saw a post by vinnmann, which was deleted. At first I thought how awesome it is he has returned to FT, but odd he again deleted his post.
Of course, that was until I realized the post was three years old, and the thread even older.

And yes, my seats on AA were indeed selected with FEBO in mind. Once I get my last Citibank bonus, I think I'm going to convert my remaining AA miles to HHonors points.

More details later but the 2009 NCAA Lounge Tournament has been created.
As in previous years, it should be noted that if your account has your real name on it then it may appear on the website. I would like to especially welcome our new NW friends than may have just been recently visiting the Lounge.
No teams yet, no rush. I will send out a few reminders as the time comes closer. For now, if you actually create an entry at this point, try and use your FlyerTalk name as part of the entry name.

And I'll be in the Venetian in a few days (well, only to eat at Thomas Keller's Bouchon, but ...).

Great News, indufan! Thanks for setting everything up once again. Team scoow is gonna rock this year. I'll start studying the various teams colors, mascots, geographic locations and other important considerations that impact my bracket.

Mikey always complains. That's how we know it is really Mikey posting, and not some imposter.
You know it is me posting when I talk about Michelle Pfeiffer. I was shocked, however, to discover yesterday that Michelle is apparently talking about me.
Go to "Yahoo" and do a search for "Dovster" and the third hit on the list is a Michelle Pfeiffer website.
This threw me for a bit of a loop as I have never seen the site and was very interested in what she had to say about me (assuming it was, indeed, me and not someone else with the same user name).
Unfortunately, I could not find any reference to me anywhere on the site. If any of you can, I would appreciate you letting me know, especially if it turns out that Michelle is as warm for my form as I am for her's.

Don't mind me... just looking in. 
I hope there is no name change from 'The Delta Forum Lounge' to ... 'The Delta Sky Club Forum Lounge'.

Thanks to all for the welcome! I'll be sure to host a Woodford Reserve, or six, in your honor next week in the CRC, err, Sky Club...
