Saint Greg's Mardi Gras - LIVE - August 28th-September 4th 2021

[Saint Greg]

We’re boarding

[Saint Greg]

I hate these airport lines you can’t tell who is in line and who is just standing around 

 

 

[Saint Greg]

This has us leaving in 5 minutes. And arriving on time. That’s a bold prediction cotton.

I’m heading that way 

 

 

 

Based on my flights on AA in July, I'm skeptical of this claim.

[Saint Greg]

I might be on the plane in 5 minutes…maybe.

[Saint Greg]

[Saint Greg]

Not too bad. So far nobody next to me but according to the chart I saw this plane is going to be almost full. 

[Saint Greg]

Wait they said boarding is complete. Let’s see if any of these people are next to me.

[Saint Greg]

The flight attendant just asked my name. Then said I’m good. I have the whole row to myself.

[Saint Greg]

This plane has the misting thing spirit had. United and sun country did not.

 

 

[Saint Greg]

I moved to the middle seat on my row.

[Saint Greg]

I wonder if this why they moved My seat. I love it.

I’ve been watching a lot of episodes of air disasters and when they say don’t inflate the vests inside the plane. They mean it. I saw one where everyone who did that died because the vest pulled them to the ceiling when the plane started filling with water and they couldn’t get out.

the guy with no sleeves probably has his bag in my overhead compartment. Good thing we’re wearing masks.

Not exactly the $1 spirit wifi. But I’ll take it. I would rather take my shoes off, have 3 airport beers, and two hours of airplane wifi than pay $85 to not take my shoes off.

I had a blueberry muffin and a couple cups of coffee this morning so I wasn’t hungry at the airport. “You know a muffin can be very filling.”

Check your credit card perks.  A lot of cards, especially travel focused cards, will reimburse the $85 fee.  Also that fee covers five years of precheck.  If you are going to fly even a couple times per year that comes out to less than $5 per leg of all the flights.  It is well worth that amount.

Oh really 5 years? Now that could be a different story.  Most years I guess it’s going to be 1-3 times. But this year it’s going to be 6.

Over the next 5 years it will probably come out somewhere around $2-3/leg.  On the flip side, you will have more time to buy expensive beers at the airport with less time taking your shoes off and waiting in line.  So it may end up costing you a lot more in the long run. 😀

I bought one of these on amazon. It has two clear plastic windows. One on each side. I have my vaccination card on one side and my test results on the other

The $85 is well worth it to those of us that fly in and out of Denver. The regular TSA lines can be pretty long here.
