Last month I did a taste test for Gyoza. The factors were friendliness of restaurant, quality of food and value. Here are my rankings for GYOZA in Narita:
1) Spiral Staircase (Cafe Bon)-All u can eat, delicious
2) Radisson Sports Bar (Super Star)-10 pieces but cheap
3) Green Awning- Kind of fed-up attitude, expensive and small portion



Thanks.



Thank you.

Dude... serious points for knowing the real name for the spiral staircase. And you are right.. that is the best for gyoza.

No question about it. I don't know what's better, the Gyoza...or the fact that they'll just keep bringing you more.

When you go in, give them the password and they will take you to the back room. Ferd is in charge. Stripper paradise.

Plus if you have room, the warm pancake and ice-cream. But seriously, I had the Large Drink Set which was a Rum and Diet Coke that reminded me of the way I use to pour a drink in College Holy $%$#, it was 40oz of rum with .5oz of Diet coke. Great place!!

I love NRT because of GEETA and BON!

DONT DO IT!!!!! I posted a response to this months ago with a long explanation, don't feel like typing it again... suffice to say the "Fly for Less" and "Fly for Even Less" are complete ripoffs, if something happens you can't work with normal customer service for a refund. I had my non-rev privileges threatened for disagreeing with the 5 second answer I was given when trying to get a refund--they wouldn't even look up the ticket code to confirm that it WAS refundable, they just disagreed and then threatened me when I pressed them to look it up.

You can find normal Delta tickets online for less, also.
DO NOT USE THE EMPLOYEE "FLY FOR LESS"!!!!!

Second question. Can we jump seat on United/Continental internationally? I want to go from EWR-LIS.
UAL is a breeze to jump on. I've taken them SEA-NRT-ICN, MUC-IAD, and PVG - SFO. You can walk up to the gate and list. I've never gotten first on them, but every time I've gotten their economy plus or business.

I couldn't help you with any BA info.

I remember reading something years ago about British Airways not joining the EZed ticket program nor taking paper tickets, thus not being able to non-rev on them. I looked through the Interline section of DeltaNet and couldn't find anything either.

But we would get better deals on Air France anyway, since we have a JV pricing, which is even cheaper than Zed fares. I think between KLM and AF you'd be set anyway, unless BA is the only carrier available for your departure city.

Yikes! I just tried to do it and it was double the price of what I can get on a travel website. Im not surprised though. I find that almost everything on the employee perks site is more expensive than anywhere else.

Sheesh!! It's been 4 hours since Carl posted this and nobody responded. The only thing missing is a cheese rack. Well...maybe you could put some cheese in her rack!!! Nice find Carl. (-:

If you want some cheese with Carls find, buy it from Beehive cheese in Ogden. One of our very own has close ties to this company.

Yummy stuff. I love Big Johns Cajun.
