Sounds like you came in on an even A gate and left on the odd side.
Your pilot sighting may have been a CHQer. That's disturbing, to say the least.
On another note, did you get a chance to meet any of the gorgeous gate girlies over there? There's more than one of them who take my breath away.

I used to see those things all the time in CVG. At first I just thought it was regional guys, but I've seen some senior mainline Captains strollin' around with those things causing epileptic siezures.

hahaha thats great, maybe its like the 40 yr old men you see nowadays with those stupid UGGS, they were never cool, but even worse when you see some dad wearing them because he thinks he looks hip, so very sad.............

Slice, not sure what the deal was, but hopefully you're aware that the contract normally doesn't allow for RJ's if the total block time spent on the RJ is over 2.5 hours. I'd have pressed for the direct flight on American.

I had a deal once where they had me on an RJ from MEM-SLC, I think. I refused it and they had to come up with a plan B.

I was in First Class on a 900 series RJ which wasn't too bad...and don't want to make any waves for about 3 more months if you know what I mean.
