Thank you **Spoons** and **Jeff** , support your local Travel Agent. They’re good people - just look at **Shirley**! They’re good at what they do, will bend over backwards to get you the best deal, and they’ve really been treated badly by the airlines. Many are Mom and Pop businesses. Let’s keep 'em around!

Not that I’m biased or anything.
