I'm stuck in -22F on an NWA DC-9 this week. Waiting till the -24H window to try for a roach choice seat. Annoying system.
Two of my three other segments did get the U/G, but they didn't e-mail me to let me know. Sorry, redtail loyalists, but the old DL always treated me better and kept me more informed.

Michaelopolis would be a city of Michaels, just as Crocodilopolis is a city of crocodiles, although in the latter case they are Crocodile mummies. Could you handle a city of Michaels? Or a city of Michael mummies?

And prior to the merger, NW treated us former NWers better, and kept us more informed too.
I guess we both got the best of both....

39,764 SkyMiles (without a Delta CC or ever having set foot on a DL airplane) this year.
Not too bad.

Congratulations. If you register him for Delta Skymiles right away, he gets his first 1000 miles free.

BTW, I apologize to the Lounge for the number of Star Alliance elite statuses I have over on my left side. Maybe I should go boxing instead.

Actually, I'm trying to avoid having to celebrate anything. If flightaware is any guide, I should jump from about 23:30 PST to 0:30 MST.
