Into the Wild Blue

<p>D just received her flight itinerary for I-day. (via Email) I’d love to compare Flt. #'s if there’s anyone else going it alone and going thru Atlanta. I’m hoping she’ll have some company on her flight. I’m not worried about her flying alone (imagine that, Flymom NOT worrying :slight_smile: ) I just think it would be nice for her to have a soon-to-be familiar face to look for. Please feel free to PM me if you have your flight info and you’re going thru Hartsfield.</p>

<p>i cant believe we already got this, i thought the itinerary was comin out in june! geez.. i'll be leavin jackson MS at 11:05, goin through dallas, then to c-springs by 2:30.. wow thats early.. i was expecting leaving in the afternoon and gettin there that night... geez</p>

<p>aaah! why am I not getting these emails? :D
and yeah, wow, that seems early!</p>

<p>Chicago O'Hare, DFW, and Atlanta are the big hubs. I had a 70 passenger commuter jet with about 40 appointees on it, the day before I-day. Eagle has a picture of it.</p>

<p>Wow, I haven't gotten any e-mails either :(
I hope mine comes early, that would make planning a little easier and relieve some stress.</p>

<p>missmuff & USAFA10s,</p>

<p>I'm sure your info is coming soon. When you filled out the acceptance paperwork they asked for an email contact on the flight info page, so whatever email you put on that is where the info will come. D just put my email address thinking if she's in flight, I'd be the contact person.</p>

<p>ramius, that's what I'm hoping for D!!--a plane full of appointees! I can't think of a better way to start that day than everyone being in the same "boat" (plane :) ) </p>

<p>Once the flight info arrives then you can fill out the Bed & Breakfast form. If you didn't get the link to that, it's in the orientation booklet.</p>

<p>BTW, March is here! I can't wait to hear all the appointments roll in!! Congrats in advance, I know they're coming! :) :) :)</p>

<p>Quick question... Does the AFA pay for the cadets flight TO the academy? Or do you have to pay for yourself?</p>

<p>If you check the box saying to have the Academy issue your ticket, they pay for it... You also have the choice of traveling at an earlier date at your own expense and you will be reimbursed a set amount... :)</p>

<p>Got my stuff today... Umm leavin Pittsburgh at 1:00 and gettin into DFW by 2:50, leavin DFW @ 3:45 and gettin into Colorado Springs by 4:35...</p>

<p>Any matches??? (what is the B&B link? I cant find it...) ;)</p>

<p>airforce16,</p>

<p>Visit the Association of Graduates Web site at Association</a> of Graduates - United States Air Force Academy and click on the "Bed & Breakfast" announcement (left side of screen).</p>

<p>i'm leavin Jackson at 11:05, leaving Dallas at 1:41, gettin to C-Springs at 2:31. AF, looks like you're one or two flights behind me man :)</p>

<p>haha i bet DFW and the others will be booming with USAFA appointees that day ehh???</p>

<p>I leave Portland at 11:00am, land in denver at 2:27pm, leave Denver 4:09pm and land in CO Springs 4:46pm on the 25th</p>

<p>When I visit the AOG site, I dont see a link for the B&B anywhere... Does someone have the specific URL, or is this possibly a problem everyone has had, and they dont open apps until later???</p>

<p>


</p>

<p>Looks like B&B registration hasn't opened up yet. </p>

<p>AOG</a> Info</p>

<p>Okay thats what I got, just double checkin... Thanks! ;)</p>

<p>Hmmmm, very weird. I too see where it now says "info will be available in the Spring"...but the form was up and running the other day because D filled it out on-line and sent it in. ... Maybe they don't want to start receiving them yet? </p>

<p>Well, either way, you all have your tickets so that's what's important! :) </p>

<p>Just to be safe it's probably not a good idea to post specific times of your flights. You know how I worry!!! So maybe just post your destination cities and when you find someone else in that city you could PM each other the details! We have to be mindful of internet crazies! :) Have fun matching flights with each other. I hope you all find some flying companions!!</p>

<p>wow...</p>

<p>I hope I get a "flight e-mail" SOON...</p>

<p>sure would be nice so I can go ahead and register for the AOG B&B.</p>

<p>Hey Airforce16. Congrats on your appointment. What part of SW PA are you from? I'm from Jeannette although I went to Hempfield. As you can tell I'm an "old grad" from the Hudson Highlands but my daughter is USAFA 2010. She went to the "dark side". All the best in your future career.</p>
