The only commuter hotel I've stayed in is the Rockville Center Inn; it's fairly nice, an runs about $125/ night. You can check out as late as 4pm, which is key for international trips.
The Pan American is about $100 after taxes. No idea what it's like, but the shuttle service to LGA and JFK is a huge plus.

Just non-rev'd from PHL to ATL on an MD. Before pushback, the Capt introduced himself and the F/O using the boarding door's PA phone. He then gave all of us his background of flying F-14, then F-18's. He said it again just in case nobody heard it the first time. Then as he thanked us all for being here, he said: "neither me or my copilot have our laptops in the cockpit, so we'll just be landing in Atlanta, not over-flying it by 100 miles." There was a little nervous laughter, but mostly just puzzled looks.
Am I the only one that thinks that was a stupid thing to say?

Sounds like one of these guys that still uses his callsign from his military days.
Some guys just can't let go of their glory days.

This may have been addressed previously but with regards to vacation bidding, I am being MD'd off the 767 to the 88. Do we bid for vacation in our current category or future category? I am bidding for my current category but wanted to know if I am mistaken? Thanks guys and happy New Year!

I think I'll be heading that way, too. For now, I'm waiting to see the DTW777 bid package, and what my schedule would look like, before I take the plunge. See you in the DTW pilot lounge--
