Not Sunday Funday

December 4–10, 2018

United. Memphis out Tuesday, December 4 at 7:00am, Houston stop, San Diego a little before 11. Home Monday the 10th after 1:30pm out of SAN, Denver stop, Memphis late. Paid in points. Zero due at booking.

Max forwarded the itinerary to Drew with the arrival and departure hours. Drew answered in one word of rename-banter. Max’s follow-up was the shape of the week: notice I didn’t want to fly out on Sunday Funday. Drew called it the move of an experienced business traveller.

What they did between Tuesday and Monday isn’t in the mailbox — no lodging thread, no crew CC, no post-trip report. The seats are locked. The middle of the week is still open air.

The fare was points. The unfinished part is everything after the gate.
