Baja.

Baja, Look under your bid and check the DENY button. I think it's the F4 down below. That will show you why the swap was not honored. Most likely a lack of reserve coverage on that day which is complete bull.

Everybody I know who commutes leaves a car in the Landside lot.

This was mentioned on the discount page and in a few other publications.

Umm, I've flown him from DEN to ATL and he sat in first. He did insist that every medallion that could be upgraded go before him, but he did take the last seat.

Is there some reason that we can't used the LANDside for commuting in ATL? I see why they don't want us using AIRside if we're not working, but what's the big deal with Landside since we would still be clearing security?

I would still call scheduling. They may have the sense to see that you will be qualified by then and put the trade through for you. They might not, but it never hurts to ask.

ummmmm ok.. and what makes JB so special in this arena? Are they doing flight test on revenue flights? Or are those approaches published? I have not found those runway approaches in any publication, so what is the friggin deal here?

I don't want to be a head coach. I'll stick to being a pilot. Geeze. What a game.
sucks..... Somebody forgot to take his shoes off so we could count to 11.

Back to my regularly scheduled Jack and Coke.

Consolation prize: (For you. Because I'm a Gator, Corn Husker, Irish, fan. )

Florida lost. (bad)

Urban Myer looked like he was totally out-coached.

USC lost.

UT looks like they might be better than USC.

Now that would be a bowl game....
