Southwest Airlines schedules its first flights in Memphis

[fr8doggie]

Ok, it's a hotel room. The standard ones that are purchased by airlines for crew members are virtually identical all over the globe. Now it's your turn to tell me yours is much better.

I had a 2,600sf suite for my 55hr layover in PEN. Watching the women jetskiing in burkas (or whatever you call those things) was quite titillating!

The boat drinks were pretty good, too.

Is that Penang, Malaysia? Regardless, that can't be any better than any other layover, a room is a room, riiiiiiiiiiiiight?

The AMS hotel allows guests to take bikes out and ride them around the country side. Very relaxing, almost like when you guys ride the mechanical bulls at the bar in Midland.....wait, I guess it's not really the same...

You forgot Islip and Boise. I bet Boise is nice some of the year, though. And, I won't seek help, I'll just bid trips to places I really want to go. Thanks anyway.

General,

I'm glad you bid where you want to go. I have NO obsession with that. Unfortunately, you appearantly you do. Why obsess about it? Who really cares? Other than you...

This is truely bizarre.

Choice is bizarre? Having a choice to fly INTL or Domestic trips? Why is that bizarre? Only you guys get defensive. All I say is I enjoy long haul flying and my layovers. Canyonblue almost had a heart attack! He thinks you should ONLY think about family, even though as pilots we all go on layovers generally (unless you only do turns). If the family can't understand that, well, that sucks. I like having a choice, to fly different places, and I enjoy it. I am glad you enjoy your trips too, but our flying is different than yours mostly, and people may want to know about that before applying to airlines coming up here. No biggie.

You mean the AMS hotel that was converted from an insane asylum? In a mostly Arab, Turkish neighborhood. At least the Thai place is good.

Defensive? I could care less where you overnight. Enjoy it....wherever it is.

I'll do the same on my end. You still going to be talking about your overnights in a year. In two years? I still won't care.

Yes, its bizarre that you have this obesession with where you overnight vs others. I'd say most on here would agree. Probably even most the DL guys too.

It was a hospital, the van driver said. (The one that takes you to the other hotel near the train station). I've never had any problems walking through there, and I usually go to the ferry, take it to the train station, and then go to a few great Rib places. The Thai place is good if the weather is bad.

You know, you sound miserable flying INTL. You complain about Venice, even though less than 1% of US pilots get to go there. (Only DL and USair go nonstop). Then you trash Paris, even though everyone has a favorite restaurant there, and even though traffic sucks, the exit from the plane to hotel is great.

Please bid domestic again and do transcons until you miss the layovers again. You need a change, you are complaining and many, many people on this site would LOVE to have the chance to go to Venice or Paris. At least you have the CHOICE to bid domestic or INTL, but you need a change.

Ummm, people who do care about layovers obviously have choices. If you don't care, that makes bidding easy. If so, good for you.

Looking at the majority of your posts, I tend to think you didn't graduate. But, nowadays you can do it online. Good luck!

Ummmmmmmm, private lee, you claim to be off during the week to spend time with your "family" and fly weekends to Europe and yet you have posted 56 times (most multi paragraph posts) the past 3 days. Your "family" must be proud.
