    Flight out of IAH at 4:50.  Land at 7.

    United? If so same same. Lady and I just got two drinks to go for $60 at AUS

    Is that how much drinks cost at airports now!?!

    If it's a two hour or less flight.... for the price I might hate myself a whole bunch!   LOL

    I flew Frontier once to Jackson Hole. I ended up in Bozeman instead. Frontier was perfectly fine leaving me in Denver. 
     

    For the price difference you are looking at it may be worth the risk. 
     

    Edit: I should add the only reason I made it to Bozeman was because I booked through Chase Reserve and called Chase travel to fix. Frontier hold times were estimated at 6 hours.

    Kind of on topic in regards to SWA and their reputation as THE low cost airline being a thing of the past.

    What do you all think about Frontier?   Never flown them...

    Checking their fares... I could fly to Denver from San Antonio on Friday and return next Tuesday for $198 non stop round trip....    SWA $495 Non stop round trip

     

    Tempting....

    How much do you hate yourself?

  4. Using an Amex promotion I purchased the Google WiFi deal for $100 (retailing for $200 normally) at Best Buy  

    I have been happy so far. Setup took all of 15 minutes and I have had no issues for the past week. 
     

    I do like having one SSID for 2.4 and 5 ghz bands. It does seem that my iPhone gets stuck on 2.4 band as I move about the house which is annoying. Speeds on 5 ghz have hit over 500 mbps while 2.4 is around 30-50. 
     

    I think I may buy one extra WiFi base (expanding to 4 total) to hopefully complete 5 ghz coverage.

    I’ve been in Rosemary Beach all week, and I’ve seen maybe five people out of the masses wearing a mask. Nobody is wearing masks in restaurants or grocery stores. Our group of three families have all been vaccinated so we’ve said fuck it and haven’t worn a mask since we left the airport. 

    I’m going to New Orleans for Fourth of July weekend and figure it’ll be similar.

    It’s been that way for awhile. We were staying on 30A in April and the only place that kind of required masks was some shops in Seaside. Now that Seaside charges for parking I doubt I go there anymore. It was nice not having to think about a mask at all  

    I am 2.5 weeks from Jackson Hole and it cannot get here fast enough. I am already tired of this humidity and I won’t have to see it again until August. 
     

     

  6. I finally broke down and bought a meme stock (AMC) a couple weeks ago. Fast forward with 550% gain and I sold. What meme stock do I put these “winnings” into now!?! 
     

    By my counts I’m only a doge and skip away from having 7 figures in my throwaway brokerage account. 

  7. Clear paid off this morning at IAH. Security lines we’re probably 30-45 minutes long. Precheck maybe 15. 
     

    I don’t like to wait at all so clear was definitely worth the signup. It is nice that United comps the membership.
