Customer Service Of the Day
Price is my driving force combined with flying only (mostly) on my mileage partners in the following order of preference:
1. Continental
2. Northwest
3. KLM
4. Delta
I am leaving and returning from Memphis TN in coach class. I can leave anytime within the next month or two. I want to go around the world in 6-9 days and I don’t care where I go, I am trying to get miles as cheaply as possible to reach platinum status on Northwest. If a simple 2 or 3 stop agenda will do it that will be fine.

Well Court, working in the travel field myself with the public I am not at all surprised by your entry…people are endlessly fascinating in their lunacy.
One question.. I , unfortunately, don’t have nearly enough time to keep up to date on what is going on at BootsnAll but when did you start doing the adventure tours??? Some look wonderful, some look like tours I’ve done already, and I can’t believe I would have missed them before this… I’ll have to email Sean and get all the details..who operates the tours, etc. since some are familiar! Can’t wait to have time to check out some more of them.

Rhonda,
We just started them the other day. Good to hear from you and if you have time, come over to the BNA office sometime (call b4 you come) and we’ll have lunch.
You have to call before so they can hide the 392 peruvian workers they´ve been using to making the BnA patches…
Did we lose eight of them?
Its called “rightsizing.” Actually, Court convinced 3 to stay on as interns, 2 got hired by the remodeling contractor, 2 more are now passenger screeners at PDX. The last guy, who has an inner-ear malady and no sense of direction, is driving a cab.
Another American Dream success story…
Sean,
Sounds great.. I will stop by again one of these days…is the office finished being renovated?? None of you have commented in a while. Hope you all had a great 4th of July (I can see from the pictures Court did!) See ya soon!
Rhonda

Member Spotlight
It's been awhile since we had a BootsnAll member stop by the office. However, thank to a recent post on the message boards wondering where the Boots Crew were these days, we managed to arrange lunch with Bideshi, aka Mike (blue shirt below).
With a couple of stints working in South …

Awhile back I posted here about getting into the Boston Globe Travel Show for free. Turns out that was for the trade conference during the day on Friday Feb 19th, not the travel show for regular consumers like you and me that runs from the evening of Friday, February 19 to …
