My information is a year old, but here's what I've got:

If you're a military retiree or reservist, the Soldier's, Sailor's, Airman's, & Marine's Club ($ varies according to rank) in Manhattan can't be beat. Otherwise, I recommend one of the crashpads you'll find listed on the bulletin board in the pilot's lounge.

My favorite is Crash Pad Oasis (crashpadoasis.com) ($50), but I don't know whether they've yet fixed all the water damage they sustained from a 3rd-floor flood a while back. It's one subway stop away from Jamaica Station.

My second-favorite is Lyle's Crash Pad ($40). It's in a sketchy neighborhood, but Lyle picks you up and drops you off at the airport; and it's nice inside. Just order delivery. Lyle got hired by a commuter airline a while back, so I'm not sure whether he still picks you up. You can pm me for the number.

There's someone named Jill who rents mostly to flight attendants at $25/night. It's a decent neighborhood, and I thought it was a good deal until I had to sit through a Kardashians marathon one Christmas day. Never again. I don't happen to have Jill's number anymore, but someone will.

No-Hassle Castle rents by the month. It was $250 when I used it, and it was a nice place in a decent neighborhood. I don't have the number, but there'll be a flyer in the lounge.

If you're coming off a redeye and are going out again that night, the 5 Towns Hotel rents day-rooms at $50. They pick you up. 516.371.2600.

I hope this helps, and welcome to New York!

... and you didn't kill yourself? You sir are a very strong man indeed.

Thought controlled planes? What happens if I think about sex while flying?

Well, Jeff Carlson, former NWA VP Flt Ops is there but since 2008. Nothing in any Google, SEC, or other search.

DAL has been doing maintenance on their small 767 fleet since 2012:

DELTA TECHOPS SIGNS MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT WITH ATLAS AIR

What airport were they commuting out of?

Maybe a new corporate travel account?

The Oasis is back open. The No Hassle Castle is also known as the No Heat Retreat.

Correlation is the highest level of thinking. Nailed it!

Anyone with experience shipping boxes on FedEx? What kind of discount do we get? Thanks.

That's what I heard as well. RA told them to go buy their own 319's and we would run them, but they can't find any used 319's. So then we were going to sell them the old 757's and run them for them, but they were too expensive. So finally the latest I've heard is we are thinking of taking the old 757's and running them as dedicated sports charter aircraft. I don't think the NBA deal is as big of a cash cow as everyone thinks it is.

There are a large number of 319 available. If they were looking they should have been able to find lots of them. Last I heard we are converting 10 757's for charter.
