Well, I think it has been more than 2 years (probably more like 4 years ago) but I do know a gal who went straight from AMF to JetBlue. But I guess I am not young enough to only care about two year increments of things. Heck, is still drive an '03 car that I bought in '07.
Until very recently, you didn't stand a chance in Hades of getting on with Delta or FedEx without military time.
