Moms are the Best!!!

So...leaving for WDW in the morning. While talking to my mom on the phone I got my email from Continental to check in on-line. I started doing the on-line check in while still talking to mom. I came to a page that said we could change our seats. Our seats are way in the back of the plane...which I hate. Takes too long to get off the plane. So the extra leg room seats in the first row are still open, but they cost $29 extra each. I was debating the extra $$, but decided against it because I also have to pay $25 for each checked bag we bring This is when mom chimes in that she will pay for us to get the first row seats!!!! She said it's worth it.
I love my mom.

And before anyone says it........

Yes, believe me, I KNOW Southwest doesn't charge extra for those seats and they don't charge for baggage. I would have been thrilled to fly Southwest this trip, but they no longer offer non-stop flights out of Cleveland. I was even okay with a stop over with no plane change, but there was only one of those late in the day. All the other flights you had to change planes and it took double the time or more to get there.

Thanks Mike!

So, do you think I should pay the $1.50 Continental is charging now for the tiny little bag of pretzels they used to give you for free?

I'd get a nice big sandwich at your grocery store and bring it on board and make everyone else jealous!

Do you think someday my 15 year old daughter will say I'm wonderful? *sigh*

Hope you enjoy your flight!

Bring your own snacks. Or, maybe, would it be too much to hope that MOm would pack you are really great bag lunch?

Yes. Yes, someday she will tell you that you are the best!
