Hi Tom. it was great to meet you and the family last week. We'll be checking to see if the Bears are playing the Patriots next fall!! Roz and I ended up flying out Friday to beat the snow/ice storm foretasted for the Northeast Saturday night - no big deal as it turned out - AA waived all change fees and we kept our upgrade to our surprise. Clearing check-in and security took less than ten minutes at 12:30p, but we watched the boarding area fill to capacity by 2:30 when flights to Amsterdam, Charlotte, Philadelphia, and JFK were all attempting to board about the same time (plus a few WinAir's). We also discussed checking Thursday, Friday, and Monday flights in the future. Unfortunately for us, the future is now 50 weeks from now.
