My View from 30,000 Feet: My 2 day "tour" of America via Facebook

After some time off, it's was back on Reserve for me this past Saturday. Good for three days, and having not flown yet in January, I knew I was going to be called out for an early morning sign-in. And the Crew desk delivered--they were so kind to call me at 2:40 in the morning to give me my assignment. Beautiful.

Saturday:
Washington - Chicago
Chicago - Denver
Denver - Phoenix

Sunday:
Phoenix-Denver
Denver - Chicago
Chicago - Washington

(Pictures are from my cell phone, so I apologize for the quality.) Here is my trip through my Facebook posts:

Please, please, please don't ask/post where we stay in any city...it's a safety issue. There are those that will use that information to no good. Ask me how I know...

Holy, Cow....you never got anything like that at Eagle and you were on the Hotel Committee!! I'm envious.

Better not let Tilton see this. His bonus money is going to help his crews with nice hotels!

Vicki--I have never posted the hotel we stay at on the Internet. I served on the Hotel Committee at my previous airline and am well aware of the ramifications. I promise--we are safe with me!!
