I might actually jump on this. That is literally 50% of what it normally costs.

I will say that there is no way in hell I would fly to Asia in coach. I did BIZ class last time and it was still awful.

Hmm. The last time I flew that far was to Australia on Qantas. I was 17 though so I'm sure I didn't really care about the seats

Found a gas station that sells OV's in the $500 variety with a CC. I bought one with my Amex BGR at 3x. I'll clue you folks in after I pick up my 6 after the first of July since last time I posted my spot, I found some that somebody attempted to hide .


Afro, I know we're both in BR so it better not be my spot!

Flew to India in coach when I was 28. Too pumped to care. Don't think I could do that again though.

I saw those prices on a few blogs. Really great stuff. Almost no excuse not to take those prices.

Haven't dealt with OV's in a wile besides the OV Visa's.

Do the OV's still load on BB etc?

Better get there early.

Actually I'll be out of town the first of July and will probably try to snag all 6 of mine since I know the store next to my hotel should sell them. Just in case they don't, I don't want to give the spot up.

I won't because I don't have to .

That is a great deal, and I've done ORD-NRT in coach. Sucks. If you can pass out for at least 7-8 hours or so, it isn't too bad, but if you're one of those that can't sleep on a plane... Not a chance.

I used to load mine on Serve. I haven't loaded any in months though. The Red Bird will take them too.

Redbird still allows OV. (Wish you could still load via cc and amex gc)I don't think you can load BB any longer with OV.

Ah then I figure Serve wouldn't take them if BB doesn't. Those are pretty similar but if they go through for Fro that will be good news for me (Serve).

I also load at Family Dollar. I'll know shortly when I pick up the Freedom gift cards.

I am not a plane sleeper. Just can't do it. Wasn't an issue until this last trip to Spain. I never really did shake the lethargy. But I pretty much was siesting so that works.

India I stayed up from the moment we flew MSY to IAH the first morning. Leaving IAH a 3PM for AMS. Landed in AMS at 7AM, left at 4PM. Landed in Delhi at 3AM or whatever.

I may have slept a few hours at the hotel and then got up at 9AM. I was totally fine. Weird how that works.

I avoid Family Dollar like you avoid coach.

But if I have to I will. Maybe go in MS where its safe.

Really is. Sometimes it gets me and sometimes it doesn't. Can't figure out a rhyme or reason.

I take it all day over Wally World. One by me is usually pretty empty and in a decent area so I can be in and out in less than 2-3 minutes most of the time. Better than parking and dealing with the whole Wal Mart experience.

Although my last trip to Family Dollar went like this:
"Tiffany(name probably isn't Tiffany), that white guys loadin that card again. How I do that again?. I don't know what you be doin' with that thing, but thas all kinds of money you be puttin on it".

Me: I'm pretty rich .
