AIRLINE / MATTHEW: Just curious, did you consider Acela at all? > Matthew :) Yup! I had considered taking it down, but it was more pricey than the DL Shuttle. Fare were $204.00 vs the $127.00 round trip on DL. In addition, it would take a bit longer, and I got triple miles added to my FF account. One day, however, I will take the Amtrak Acela because it has been so talked about. In the past, I had taken their regular service into Penn, but it's the local, which is long and drawn-out and on the holidays, you have to deal with crowds and sometimes rowdy college kids! Also, a PPS to my report last night, on the way back in BOS, saw a large Air France parked at the gate. I believe it was a Bus. -- Mike Burris Cambridge, Mass
