I have a credit expiring that requires travel soon. I only have time for a 2 day trip. What should I do? 1️⃣ Go to Oʻahu 2️⃣ Go to Boise, because I've never been 3️⃣ Go to Loreto in Mexico 4️⃣ Go to Seattle just because it's easy 5️⃣ This is dumb, don't bother 📊 Show results

Ever have deja vu, man? Haven't seen JetBlue take off from here in... a long time. Looks like JetBlue took a plane from SFO, flew it to San Jose to pick up the Boston Bruins, then flew it to Long Beach for the team to play Anaheim. Then it is flying this plane to LAX to get it back into service.

Does anybody speak CDG? This whole terminal numbering change says: Are departure lounges lettered now? Does this mean gate numbers will start with these letters? I am so confused by this place, but I'm trying to decipher

Shane picked the winners so we didn't know what names would be called. It was pretty fun when I said, hey I know that name!

It was a hell of a final week. Have to thank the Dbacks for making that so fun. Before I shift to worrying if we will even have a season next year, I guess I need to pick some favorites in the playoffs. Let's see a team win that has never won before... as long as it doesn't rhyme with Schmadres

Just remember Padres, you have nothing to play for. You have home field for the wild card. You know what? Don't even show up. You guys looked tired, could probably use some rest. If the Rays are reading this, please ignore. It does not apply to you at all. Fight 'til the death today.

Yes, the Dbacks are down 10-4, but technically now that the Phillies have officially lost, we control our own destiny... Until we lose. I'm just excited we are still in it on the last day of the season. This has been such a fun week

Suck it, Dodgers. We don't need your help. (But we absolutely do need help from you, Phils. Really appreciate your inability to score lately.) Let's go Dbacks!

You had one job, Dodgers, and you failed. So now we can all return to hating you. F the Dodgers. The Dbacks' path is narrow, but it's simple. Ph the Phillies. #RaysUp! (And congrats @themiddleseatview.bsky.social, you're in. Only other race that matter is in the dismal AL West.)

Ok, people. Marlins didn't listen, Cubs win, they don't matter anymore. Dbacks are up 10 right now, so let's focus all that energy on rooting for the Brewers and -- sorry, I know this makes us sick -- the Dodgers

Alright everyone, today is a "no work" kind of day. There is too much important baseball to be played on getaway day. For those who aren't clear: *Root for the Marlins at 1120am PT *Root for the Dbacks at 1210pm PT *Root for the Brewers at 305pm PT *Root for the Dodgers at 710pm PT

This is the kind of stuff that makes all the work pay off. Every year, getting to be with the same people... it's a family reunion that keeps growing.

Another @crankyflier.com Dorkfest in the books. I could tell you about the airplanes, the giveaways and the massive crowds. But instead I want to appreciate that Brett has created a space for me to hang out with my dorky friends & just do what makes us happy. That is pretty darn special - & needed.

The giveaway list is locked. Nice try for those who entered twice, but it has been de-duped. The random number generator has been won, and the prizes are in hand. See you all tomorrow at #CrankyDorkfest
