Just 1 flight but a few of us can Jet Blue it then taxi it over from Santiago.

[Magnum]

Jet Blue - That is what I am trying this week. I will see how that works.

The kick in the ass will be the return flight and trying to go straight to work.

Talk about being a zombie......

[nomad]

Flights were expensive this summer from Texas.
$800-$1300 RT from San Antonio to POP
Now it is cheaper.
$540 RT San Antonio to Santiago. Two week notice.

For Texas that is a damn good deal.

What the hell is a NOMAD???????

[WSJ3]

no·mad ( P ) Pronunciation Key (nmd)
n.

1. A member of a group of people who have no fixed home and move according to the seasons from place to place in search of food, water, and grazing land.
2. A person with no fixed residence who roams about; a wanderer.

Nomad - Mechanical probe on episode No. 37 "The Changeling" from the original STAR TREK/NBC/1966-69 series. Nomad (voice of Vic Perrin) was a five-foot long cylindrical object with radiating antennas that floated on anti-gravity beams. Originally, an Earth probe launched on August of A.D. 2002 to seek out alien life forms, Nomad was damaged by a meteoroid and wandered out of contact with the Earth finally merging its programming with an alien space probe called Tan-Ru whose mission was to secure and sterilize soil samples. Unfortunately, their combined programming now reflected a new mission to destroy all that was imperfect, including all organic life. After killing some four billion inhabitants of the Malurian System, Nomad confronted the starship USS Enterprise. While probing the craft for signs of imperfection, it mistook the ship's Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner) for its own creator Jackson Roykirk. Using this to his advantage, Kirk convinced Nomad that if it could mistake him for his creator, it's programming was flawed, imperfect. Seeing the logic of the situation Nomad self-destructed. A similar but larger mass killing device (a planet destroyer) appeared on episode No.35 "The Doomsday Machine."

WSJ3 - I guess you do not know about me and Nomad. Sad to say, I know oh too well what a NOMAD is.

He is the first guy I met from a site and unfortunately he appears to now be a life long friend. I would assume you have not had the pleasure of meeting him as of yet.

We do a pretty good song and dance routine together......

Great guy and a great friend......

I am sure I will run into you guys one day soon in DR or Brazil.

The Star Trek Nomad reference was just one of my non sequitor jokes.

LOL.

[BrooklynBeas]

Ive met Nomad and he is special..... anyways as for the Jet Blue late late night flight and the returning one from STI are a lil tough to handle... especially the one returning... I took it on a sunday late night and was supposed to be home at about 6 but the flight was a little delayed and i didnt get back till almost 7am... got my shit and called in sick to work... i couldnt do it... noone at work knows i even went on that weekend trip... the cool thing though is you dont lose a days work if you wanna leave at 9:45pm you get to STI with plenty of time to take a ride over to Passins or Ilusions and get a girl...

And what pray tell are the chics charging at Passion...I am assuming it would be $100US 3000DR.

Are the chicas all 9's and 10's like the ones in Crystals in POP?

[Magnum]

Beas - do not get sentimental on me about Nomad...he is special?????? I have heard him called a lot of things but special is not one of them!

As far as the Jet Blue returning flight, I figure give it a shot and see how it goes. It may not effect me as bad as others because most days I am at work at 0300 so my body is used to the ass backwards hours.

I am going to make an attempt to get to Sosua that night when I arrive. If I get there by 0330 I will be happy.

[FnB]

Ive met Nomad and he is special..... Do you mean special as in he took the little bus to school?

[BrooklynBeas]

Special is not always a good thing guys....

[WSJ3]

Special is not always a good thing guys....

Small yellow bus SPECIAL

Takes long walks on the beach holding guys hands SPECIAL

I am not following the whole SPECIAL theme.

[BadGoodMan]

[psriches]

For the New York crew, Jet Blue seems to be the only carrier still under $300 for the summer. Santiago bound.........

[questner]

Well, just picked a spot to post.

Maybe it will be of interest to anyone.

Say, you plan a flight. Not sure where and not sure from which airport and you have got a budget. Airports may be far away, example YYZ, BUF, NYC to MDE, BKK, SDQ

Open kayak.com and input flexible dates, several airports to fly from and several airports to fly to. Search and adjust results on the left bar.

You may be amazed with results and it can actually influence your choice of a trip.

[psriches]

Wow, i love reading the old 2004 threads. Nice!!
