Whatever we get, I hope we are planning (and budgeting) for updating every single device at least once every 3-4 years. There is nothing we can get that will be timeless.

Gloopy

The tablets are leased for I think 3 years for just that reason.

'scuse me!?! Yes we did have a B scale and you know we know it! We also lost the sixth week vacation that hasn't been returned.

The five year plan I've heard talks about expanding A concourse way further out and gaining quite a few more A concourse gates.

Not exactly what I've heard from the SEA CPO office...

Boy.... Sailing used a BAD choice of words on that one!!!! D'oh!

Anyway, they aren't ever guaranteed anything from year to year and can have it taken away at any time. They have NO control over their raises, etc.

We do. I also think it provides a nice springboard to improve our vacation in 12 months when we open!!
