I'm on my first flight in like forever that is not either in economy comfort or business. Holy crap, I had forgotten. I mean the guy next to me is not even fat at all, and his arm is like inside my seat

I bet he's all up in your computer screen, too. Hi, not-even-fat guy with wandering arms!

Well, these distinctions are ultimately only about how they make a person feel.

CPI is working on a fuselage in which there are no windows. Instead, a high-resolution digital display, made up of panels running the entire length of the cabin wall, would project the image from outside the plane, captured by external cameras.

Yeah, that guy is the worst.

In related news I am going to crush infinite amounts of free bloody Mary's in the Atlanta United club tomorrow around 7PM. Who's with me?

And if I have expensable funds left we can even meet at one of the 25 Sweetwaters and drink those for awhile!

Need an all-inclusive good for a group around Cancun (hate all-inclusives but necessary for this trip). Suggestions?

I AM GOING TO ONE SATURDAY AND WILL REPORT

All-inclusives seem like a dumb thing to hate though. (I know people have had this conversation before.)

Resorts in general are pretty tacky, it's just that all-inclusives tend to be tackier.

Going to be in Vienna Austria for new years. Where do I get hammered at?

I forgot to report back on the AI in St Maarten. I can't recommend enough. Not tacky. Great food and booze everywhere. Variety. Wonderful beach and friendly people. Jamaican lady gave us a massage on the beach and squirted a bunch of aloe junk right out of a massive aloe branch thing. Drove around the whole island one day and went to different beaches, and it's pretty great. Idk guys, having great food really made this one awesome. I can see where if the food sucked, it would suck to be stuck at an AI.

Suggestion - don't stay IN Cancun or Cozumel. Look in PDC or Puerto Adventuras.

I did the Hard Rock in Riviera Maya. I liked that it had a lot of restaurants for dinner. Options were limited for Breakfast/lunch. Wasn't a whole lot to do after dinner but drink at a bar which isn't so appealing when you've been drinking all day.

Hard for me to judge too much as it was my first all-in.

This place is adequate. Just down the road from Ranni's fav Swinger resort Desire.

I like getting out and trying to find a good restaurant and/or bar in whatever city....all-inclusives seem lazy and forced fun.

Can't wait for the report back.

Where did you have the most crap ton fun in the 1/2 that are all-in trips? That's the question in front of us.
