Please let me know. You can communicate with us via this email luvb737@cox. net directly. Thanks again for the info. Much appreciated.

He would prob be interested in a trade... I emailed him with your details, he might mail you unless he traded already. Not sure of your base, but he works at HDQ.

There used to be a great site www.swatrade.com where people would trade greens (old) for reds, oal passes for greens/reds etc. Shame it has gone now!

UA is good for you with the CASS thing... I assume same deal on DL then? Your wife might not have the best time in coach on UA as they don't have PTVs!!! (unless you get upgraded... dunno chances on UA). DL is good and has PTVs in all classes, and there is always that chance they will clear you into biz instead of coach. QF has PTVs, but you can't jumpseat and you will be coach only.
