Really? The only hotel that would give us points on the Saab was MKG Holiday Inn. Nobody else would, but I haven't even bothered to ask on the Jet since I mostly have done YUL highspeeds.

You just have to keep asking, it seems different Holiday Inns have different policies at different times. I stopped asking until I was in DBQ last time and saw the other two crews get their cards out. Now I will ask from time to time to see about those points.

ATL is the new "mecca". The internal announcement is all over the training center right now. In class right now and there are 3 other classrooms with new computers to be used to teach the new hires and up grades.

What internal announcement is this? And are these new computers for the 900? What else are you observing/hearing?

Those Freedom 900s ARE next gens and not the old skanky ones Mesa operates for USAirways.

This is the press release from Mesa (Freedom) when they entered service last December.
