So i was planning on taking continental using rewards miles to EWR, and than catching Virgin Atlantic to LHR...but unfortunately, the connection at EWR coming home would only be 1.5 hours, and since both flights werent on the same ticket, it would be my responsibility if i missed my connection...and being that the 8:30 flight is the last one out of EWR it would mean i'd spend the night there...

so i was then considering Air Canada, but then the $660 fare i had gotten last week went up to $730...not a huge jump, but enough that it sent me back to hipmuch (You need to be a member to view our links.) for one last search...

lo and behold...US Airways, CLE-PHL-LHR and LGW-CLT-CLE for $570 out the door...how can you pass that up!?

i have already taken the LGW-CLT-CLE flight...so i know it is boring, but it will mean my first flight on an E170, which i will like for sure. 

I will post pics upon my return, for sure.

Looking forward to your pics and I hope you have a nice trip!  I do have one beef with your statement..."i have already taken the LGW-CLT-CLE flight...so i know it is boring,"

Ummm...I'm sorry...does not compute.  A boring flight?  I didn't know there was such a thing?!

I can vouch for dimoko, there is definitely such a thing as a boring flight.  But sometimes boring is better than exciting...

well, the bad part is, i booked a window seat about 3 weeks ago, and i went to check it now, and they have moved me from there into the center aisle...thanks US airways!  when i called to complain they said, "this is just a seat request, not a reservation"  i still dont understand how someone else gets priority over me in requesting a window seat.

the good news is, i might spring for the Envoy Class upgrade!!!  :toothy12: :blob7: :downtown: :icon_cheers:
