On the course!
I can't wait to hear about your forthcoming shower, and the obligatory powdering of your nuts!

Go gamble, for Christ's sake!......Tell us about the waitress with the big hooters! (Well.....that stuff is for Monk and Bluemound et al) Go see a show! Take a walk on the Strip! What? do I have to plan this whole fuhking trip for you?;)

I have just managed to make this thread 1000% more interesting, so step up Johnny, and make us proud!

Have a great time.....as if you needed any prodding!

Jack,

I've got some bad news. Back home after spending 6 hours at the airport. On the plane for an hour, got de-iced twice.

Pilot finally came on and said he didn't have permission to cancel the flight, but they would have to find another two pilots.

We have one more shot at 8:30 am tomorrow, else all flights from around here are booked til after Sunday.

Crossing our fingers, need this damn ice rain to stop and the weather forecast remains iffy for tomorrow.

Will keep you posted. Was do in Las Vegas in an hour.

KC......are ya flying as a ticketed passenger, or as a non-rev? if you're ticketed, they'll find a way to get you there once the weather lets up, even if it's on a different airline....if you're non-rev, well, to put it mildly, you're screwed :(

Hopefully my last update before Vegas becomes a reality.

Get this - plane is delayed to 1:00p, so will miss the Denver/Vegas connection. Tried flying to PHX,HOU,STL,MSP,DAL,KCI, &CHI. All flights from these cities are full today, except O"hare. Weather looked risky going there, so we opted for this:

Wichita-Denver-SF-LAS: Supposed to get there anytime between 7:30 and 11:30p.:eek:

Fletcher, just recomfirmed our room and still have it. Long day ahead.

kcwolf:rolleyes: :sleep:

Good luck to you KC. I hope you make it out there. I will be pulling for you.

Now go get hammered at the airport bar. That is what I would be doing considering I am scared to death of flying.

Mama,
We leave at about 7am Saturday. Doesn't look like any weather issues for us so far.
I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Bohica....... your group just renting a car, or do you have a plan on a ride from the airport already? I'll be picking up a couple of others there around 10 ish on saturday morning, and the car is SUPPOSED to be a luxury, so should hold a bundle :)

oh, and happy birthday, too, btw.....
