That is a VERY good point I hadn't thought of yet. Still trying to get cars rented, and rooms and tours booked. After looking at the cost breakdown on my wife's ticket though I'm not sure that I could justify the extra 200 bucks for the booze. I also feel it's more likely if I'm jumpseating and she is on a zed we could get an extra legroom seat out of the deal since they tend to be kinder to jumpseaters than passriders. I'm also planning on strbucks cards and chocolate for the gate agents and flight attendants. Unless you guys have better suggestions?
