Thanks for all the DTW hotel info guys. I didn't need it though because on my leg 1 of 2, the jumpseat was broken. So, it was 4hrs in the "not so quiet room" in DTW. Nice base though.

This is what I found out on my recent adventure:

1) 2 leg commutes suck
2) DTW is just way too far away
3) US Airways does not overbook as much as us.

I used US to get home and they were great! I even got breakfast and it was much better quality than DL. As a matter of fact, the overall product was, IMHO, better than DL. The 320 is soooo much better than the 737 or 757 for PAX comfort. FAs were friendly and professional. DL needs to ride on some of these other carriers and take very careful notes. But, then again, all of our flights are full and US were not. So I guess what I value in a product is not what the travelling public does.

That my friends is why I just drive the airplane.

Thanks again and happy bidding!
