Boy have I lucked out. I have 2 sons who fly. One for the Navy and the other for AirTran. I can now travel to CR for free. I think I have died and gone to Heaven. I will be going a lot more.

How does that work :?: Last I knew the Navy did not fly passengers :shock: and AirTran does not serve Costa Rica. :roll:

I was wondering the same thing. How would you be able to fly free with the United States Navy? And AirTran is primarily a U.S. domestic carrier, but they do fly to a few different routes to areas of Canada and Mexico. But that's the extent of their "international" routes.

Richards, can you explain how you're able to fly free?

I was a freakin slave during a 32 year career that required too much travel. However, now that that it is over,I have used my frequent flyer milage for four free round trips to CR and Peru, and I still have enough mileage for three more. Hope the testerone holds out.

I was thinking it was something like that when I fly united I can use my Taca distancia card. I can also use my Taca miles to fly united but I never have.

An F-15 sounds OK to me. They can skip the beverage service and boca.

What, you can do this in the time that it take for me to drive to the beach. I think that I shall tell my regular employer that I reconsidered, and will take the transfer to Florida. :)
