Damn...you mean I can't wear it to my kid's Soccer game, then to grocery store to get beer, on the way home??

What if I'm on short call??

Then I can sleep in it, right? :eek::D

That's indicative of our whole country. Not like the Italians that dress to the nines to go to the store or go shopping.

All you Ralph Laurens out there non-revving and commuting in coat and tie? Cool.

Dude don't you walk around with your eyes open in the airports? Most people are wearing pajamas. Personally I non rev in my clubbing clothes, affliction shirts and seven jeans.

I wear my 'in transit blinders' which can be pierced by few things not mammary related.

:D You know I was looking at that. I looked up some train info and when you consider you're flying for free, it's a good deal.

It kind of seems like a good idea to see the country side as well.

If you do fly in or out of BRU, consider a short side-trip to Bruges. 1 hour northwest by train and the prettiest little town in Europe for my money.

thanks gj, a6 and scam.

i'll keep that in mind. I'm not sure why I am looking anyways given we don't have an overnight babysitter that would work for a week long trip or kids that are ready for that. But it's fun to look.

Don't worry, FTB, you're not alone. I probably spend too much time checking loads and fantasizing about places we won't be able to go until our one-year-old turns about 10. But yes, it's still fun to look! Koh Samui looks awesome! I start getting excited, but then I think about...

A 12 hour flight in coach spent diving under the seat in front of us to retrieve a binky...sweeping it backward with the safety card and putting it back in her mouth...trying to set a good example and keep my seatbelt on even as I wonder if they forgot to turn it off :)

What about using KCM if you're nonreving in uniform to attend a funeral? Grey area for sure.

Attending a funeral in an airline pilot uniform, though.... No grey area there at all...

The more I think about it, we should just go to BRU and visit Paris for 2 or 3 days. :D

Yes, I'm going from Paris to Brussels back to Paris.... Texas. And only for the afternoon. And even that's probably not going to happen.

BTW, I love trying to reach behind my seat while I'm driving a car as my daughter wants me to get the tiny box of raisins she dropped. As my fingers search blindly for it she keeps saying "right there, it's right there, dada... it's right there."

I live with a tiny comedian.

It's easier for him to say that then to say his management has been an abboration. The way their running the pilot situation alone sets the standard for how not to do things. They'll be bad blood there for a long time. So glad to be here!
