Look at it this way man, I’m going for DFW too and I’ll be upgrading in about 3-4 months. Many of my buddies as well, you’ll be behind all of us. So you will probably take a trip to LGA, then jump to Chicago, then mayyyybe DFW.
If I was in your shoes I wouldn’t want to take the long road home.
And we are talking standby reserve man. I wouldn’t do it.
