Anything more than 72 hours into the future is long term planning at Atlas -- and that is not a joke.

Like many airlines, Jan 31 belongs to Feb. So Jan 2359Z on Jan 27 is the end of long term planning for January.

FYI, I don't know anyone looking to leave for Delta or United because of a lack of structure at Atlas.

Honestly, me either. This is never a reason Ive been given about wanting to leave. Its always, their retirement is better, their guarantee is higher with line guarantee, the soft time is better, and the list could go on.

Completely off topic question:
I need of good suggestion for up to $75US worth of food in HKG. TJs is $10HKD taco tuesday but I don't think I can, or should eat $75 worth of body by Atlas. Thanks for any suggestions.

Lots of good places by the escalators in Soho. Went there for Thanksgiving and had a nice steak.

But you may end up chipping in some of your own hard earned $$$s at Ruth's Chris...btw, we did Thanksgiving on the company dime with about 10 people in Seattle...I had forgotten how good their food can be.

The gang has been using this to find good spots no matter what city your in. Then it's up to you to decide how far you want to go or how much to spend.

Good Luck
