hey all i feel privileged that i am writing a blog entry on margo's blog !!!! the main reason for this is to ask people to vote.
WHICH FLIGHT SHOULD MARGO GET ON?
Option one
A Northwest Airlines flight (random airline ive never heard off) on saturday which leaves on 1330 GMT and gets in 2300 (Pacific). Now this flight is awesome margo would fly to Detroit (that great American city) and then get an internal flight to Seattle via Minneapolis - thus the whole journey would last around 18 hours. BUT she would get to go to a baseball game with her family....
Option Two
A British Airways (also a crappy airline in my opinion) to Seattle direct on Sunday which would arrive when the baseball game finishes - some would say good timing!!! This flight would last 11 hours.
Both flights are booked so the choice is yours. Margo has agreed to get on the flight with the most votes.....

Although the baseball game with Margo's family would be good, the benefits of the BA flight far exceed those of the North West flight! Who wants to be stuck in Detroit for a couple of hours! She will just be a little late for the baseball game. It has to be the BA flight..
I know what mom will vote for!
Do not! And who says it would be good timing to miss the baseball game? Garlic fries, kettle corn, beer in plastic bottles, Ken Griffey Jr. Now how can that be good to miss?
18-hour journey? I'd need drugs. Go with BA, and in the future, check out American Airlines.
didnt mean good timing to miss the game just good timing with regards to the end of the ball game and the flight arrival time - oops
Go with northworst! You know you want that Detroit layover. Maybe you will run into kid rock or something.
NWA all the way!
There will be beer at the game; you can chill after your 18hour flight. Plus, you can add Michigan to your list of visited states...
I think the Beavers have kind of answered the question for us.
But, as a general rule I still think that BA should be avoided. At least if you have legs longer than 2 feet. American was a million times more comfortable.
Oh, come on, it's the Mariners! If you get there towards the end of the game, they'll be losing and you'll have missed all of the events leading up to that. Unless you know where to find some good baseball in the UK, I'd suggest that you seize the opportunity to get your fix.
What's a little Detroit stopover in the scheme of things?
