Southwest Airlines schedules its first flights in Memphis

Well, one thing I like about Europe is the toilets all have these cool little drinking fountains right next to the toilets!

I just clean off my toothbrush there and splash my face. So convenient!

Dude

Ever notice all you do is slam Texas.



You might want to seek help. We could start a fund for you on FI

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.

Ummmm, that's a sad statement. If your layover is just a "hotel room", then you are missing out. I bid trips for specific restaurants, things to do like tours or seeing museums, or just riding bikes near windmills. Even though Canyonblue doesn't want ANYONE to enjoy a layover if it isn't with family, many do. If you gotta go to work, it's nice to enjoy it, and going somewhere interesting and fun is a plus. You can do that domestically and internationally, but some just can't do it internationally. That is a difference people who might be applying to airlines coming up here may want to think about. Regardless, if you have fun, well, that's awesome.

See, I knew you could do it.

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.

Um, I'm not really inclined to wade in to this pissing contest but my European layovers are light years better than the domestic stuff I've spent most of my career flying.

I guess it depends on your own sense of adventure. My hotel room is largely irrelevant. My hotel room's surroundings however are not.

General!
So what do you do when you are flying 6 or 7 hours over the Atlantic with very little to do but look out the window at the clouds or count wave tops on the clear days. Don't tell the "Shanwick" controller that the Guinness Factory tour sucks. BTW the old Guinness factory really sucked because it was down in the underground cellars in the dark dodging little trains and puddles of stale stout and tripping over the occasional worker who was having a self induced nap (ala Guinness - they were allowed a bucket each day). The new Guinness Storehouse is quite impressive.

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?
