Congrats Chellie. : )
Also I’m the first in.
Wow great qualifications and look forward to continued improvement. Here is my issue..parking. So if you park in the terminal for a few days say in parking C, the chances are you flight will return to A Terminal. First there is an incrediable long walk only partially cover by moving walkway, but you can not get to C. If you get luggage at A you can risk walk outside in a cold dark walk way, but you cannot walk upstairs inside because TSA blocks the return. Also if you go to A parking you are stuck because A and B do not connect to C. Basically its a screwed up maze. Try it some night. Anyway that needs to be looked at.
