Update: Even though my jumpseat list shows us able to use Eagle for international (specifically says all Eagle flights are considered domestic for JS purposes) and AA travel listing created my reservation without a hitch...I was shot down in ATL at the ticket counter.

Thank God for the Spirit counter a few steps down! Made it to FLL with the board and had LOTS of help from both Unitental agent up top and the Silver agents at the gate...long story short...they made it work...and a 10' longboard will fit in a Saab. Not a single ding!

Next question: the site I use for loads is ridiculously optimistic sometimes. Any Silver, Expressjet or Unitental guys out there able to check UA flight 4045 for tomorrow out of MHH for FLL? I'll get the board on the FLL flight if the girl and I can't ride, so how does UA4016 look tomorrow MHH for PBI?

Thanks in advance!
