    OP said Frontier I believe. I am booked on American (with a SWA backup) and I agree that AA doesn't appear to be limiting as much. But I swear I also read somewhere, but now can't find it, that they are allowing people to change flights for free if there is over 70% capacity upon check in.

    I know I saw United doing that but not sure on American. Right now I have my wife in the aisle and my by the window with the middle seat open hoping no one will take it, but the flight is nearly full

    Good luck!

    FYI the cashier's cage at Cosmo sells books of $2 bills. I think you can get 50 or 100 and it comes with a neat little leatherette holder! (Or at least they still sold them last year when I got mine)

    @LV2GAMBLE, glad to see you got a window seat instead of being stuck in a middle seat. I laughed at your pic. Yes, I've been ahead of the times for a few years now. Always have/had a mask on for longer flights as I often fall asleep and without my CPAP I snore and breathe through my mouth and get sick 50% of the time. Wearing a mask is a small consolation to insure not being sick on vacation. Of course, now, wearing a mask is a small consolation to not being dead. Anywho, I am sooo jealous. My next trip isn't until September.

    I have arrived!!! Just a quick update before I run for supplies and get alcohol impaired. Lol. Allegiant flight was about 40-50% full. I ended up getting a whole row to myself, but surrounded by a family with 4 little germ carriers. Don't get me wrong,g, I like kids and have 4 adult rascals if my own.

    Got one episode is drink service, so if course I made it a double...lol

    Incoming flight arrived about 45 minutes early and we pushed off from the gate about 15 minutes early. Win. Win.

    Running for supplies. Will update when I can sit down with my tablet and a drink in hand.

    Grrrr...i always seem to have issues. I hate this damn chromebook.

    Ran for supplies. Walgreens for mixer and water. ABC for alky hall. Damn, that shit has gone up!!

    Grabbed a Mickey D's just to get a base. Having a cocktail. No ice machine on this floor. Asked for a quiet room and am on 17th floor facing Walgreens.

    Getting around Fremont is a PIA. Walk-thru scanners at each crossing. Had to show my ID to get in the one block. Others not so stringent. They take your temp by scanning your arm at every entrance here at The D. I've used all 3 entrances. At the one by the stage also had to show ID or room key.

    After picking up Mickey D's was going to grab a couple cups that they have at the door so I can make a drink, NO cups, so using them teeny cups in the room. Yeah, that's like 3 swallows.

    Good morning VMB. Just getting ready for the day. When I made this rezzie they told me the gym and pool are open. WRONG,,,the gym is not open. So, I went for a walk pounding the pavement under the canopy. Nice and quiet around that time.

    Nothing much to discuss on the gambling front. Had a few bonuses on the Quick Hits upstairs at The D. So pathetic that I just laughed out loud at them. Hit 5 QH's once for something like $16.

    Things here at the D are to me, are almost normal in terms of a Monday night crowd. Not much in mask usage, including myself, but I did Clorox wipe on the machine before playing.

    Some observations: No masks required at Walgreens (what happened to "Be Well:...lol) but were required at ABC. They were offering them at the door. The D has new locks on their rooms, or at least since I've been here. I asked about the cups not at the door, the security guy said that they are not having them now and that you can just walk out with your beverage, he said including glass...huh??

    Gambling is brutal. Not even noon and lost about half of daily bankroll. A little casino hopping this morn. Mr Steven's properties are not being very generous. No bonuses at either.

    CW service everywhere so far have been about the same as before.

    A couple pics to follow:

    Got sick of losing and start low-rolling so I don't have to sit in my room all day. Playing at Binions. They have taken out a bunch of the old machines back on the north end by that bar, which was closed at this time. CW service consistent here[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
