    one time i got charged $80 for an oversized bag going to vegas... on the way back i just put it up on the counter and walked away before they could measure it and charge me

    that's my point

    these squares act like they know shit

    well I will be glad to hear if they do know something

    but 95% of the time it is bs and I laugh.........when I am wrong 1 in 20 then I will apologize and thank them for the advice

    i have heard of an extended hold for certain routes on American but there is an extra fee for that.
    next time try calling the agent and ask that your ticket be put as "pick up at airport". I guarantee this will work with American

    well out of 5 trips given away, they had 9 cancellations, not a good look for sbr when people won't even take free airfare/hotel to hang out at their conference

    i think less people would've cancelled going to an accounting convention

    I don't think the cancellations are indicative to what SBR is rolling out. I'm sure many don't have a passport, the upfront money to purchase their ticket or the where with all to interact with human beings without the use of a keyboard. It should be a great time although I do wish some of the poker guys would have made the trip. Am deff looking forward to seeing Big O, Booya, finally meeting up with Stealthy & enjoying a few rounds of golf.

    if it drops all the way down to me for free airfare then the odds are decent, otherwise to be honest i'd rather spend the 1000 going to vegas for some ufc and zombie burlesque
