Re: Ticket to Ride

I am interested in the rumored merger. Anything to get out of having to fly NORTHWORST. Besides, delta=Air Jamaica, no? For me to fly Air Jamaica I have to fly to either Duluth to Mpls to Chicago, or fly from Duluth to Mpls to Atlanta and the Atlanta or Chicago leg was as expensive as the whole rest of my ticket. Either way I usually end up with 3 flights but this sounds like a win win to me! I am hoping it means I can fly out of Duluth/Chicago instead of Mpls!

Congrats on your tickets Marilyn! You go girl.

Nooks
This morning's news says that Delta also has an offer on the table with US AIRWAYS, but regardless NW will merge with someone they said, even if not Delta.

Re: Ticket to Ride

Re: Ticket to Ride

The rumored merger will sure have an impact on Memphis that is for sure. And Minneapolis too. I have been praying for something to happen since American pulled out of here a couple of years ago. I am not too worried about my miles, they did all that scare talk after 911 about them too. They are never a sure thing the airlines can yank them away any time they feel, boy that would sure anger a lot of people so...doubt it will happen. I am salivating the 7th heaven or whatever Air Jamaica calls their program!

Re: Ticket to Ride

Nooks .. all your bad chatting down NWA ... [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70402-thinking.gif[/img]

The LINES at AirJamaica in Montego Bay are horrific!!! The lines at the lost luggage Air Jamaica counters are horrific ~

I hear such moaning about late take off's and such on AirJA ...

what is it about NWA that has you so turned off by them? why do you hate them so bad bad?

maybe I am just too easily content .. but - I have never had any issues with them ... and had only one missing case that was delivered to Negril with-in 12 hours ~

Laurel I am not the only one that calls them NORTHWORST.

My favorite airline is American by far. Northworst is only one step above the charters as far as I cam concerned and I refuse to ever take a charter again.

Geeze I am so close to a trip on both American and Northwest wouldn't that be a cool thing if THEY merged. If that happeend I thin ONE trip would give me TWO!

Any airline can loose luggage they all do.

The mechanics strike was the last straw for me. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70400-talktohand.gif[/img]

I thought the last trip down was the end of it for me when it involved an overnight no matter how I booked. Yep I had to de-plane in Mpls...get my luggage and go outside the gates for the night and re-check in the morning. No flight got me there in one day. It wouldn't have been so bad if say...they would have kept my luggage but I had to drag it around Mpls.

Geeze the corporate welfare loan they defaulted on in Duluth over the maintenance base they had the city build for them. They should be ashamed.

Another thing that they are famous for...if a flight from Mpls to Duluth is not very full...SUDDENLY they have mechanical problems. SOMEHOW those problems always lead to the next scheduled flight and a fuller plane. Instead of landing in Duluth at 9pm, it is more like 11:30 if the second plane is on time. This is not rocket science. As a matter of fact they just did it to someone I know last week or two.

I have a long list.
