  1. the GUM-HND flight will be operated by a single 767-400 (20/236 configuration), with the EWR-HND proposed for 777 service. With 2 additonal 777 coming online this year, rearanging of the route planning can be done to accomodate. Although 777 cycles will be very limited on ground time. IAH-AMS will be downgraded to a 764 permanently as well, so there is some spare 777 flight time on top of the additional 2 CO is getting.
  2. is it a possibilty to come back and end up building condos/apt at a later date??
  3. website makes it look like a great restaurant!! can never get enough sushi!!
  4. although ike you say, not a "tall" building, but I'll take it!! 12-15 is not that bad.
  5. excellent idea on putting some residences on top...........just need more of this in midtown!!

    not happy??? what do they want??? liquor store and cash 'r us???
  7. thats the thing............the banks should have loaned the money. Thats what the banks are for. And building this type of property in one of the richest areas in teh country should provide comfort to the banks in loaning the money. However, the banks dont want to loan out the money, they want to buy more banks instead.
  8. I dont understand why some of these are being pushed back. High Street should have continued. You are serving a clientel that is not truly being affected by the current economy. Upset the Heights Blvd project couldnt get financing. Bull ____ if you ask me. Thats the problem with all the money used to bail out these banks. Instead of handing out loans, banks are using that 700billion dollars to buy more banks, and that is not what the bailout money was intended for.
  9. I still think it was a mistake not to include the residential. Having those living directly above the site will only help keep people in downtown. I wouldn't put the economy as a factor for not building apartments...........I love the way Gables has their facility at Kirby/Westheimer...........you couldn't ask for anything better!!
  10. forgive me..............I have forgotten...........but why was the residential portion of HP cut???
  11. PF Chang's would not be good.................b/c my a$$ would be planted in there 7 nights a week!!!!
  12. ESPN Zone and Nike Town would be huge!!!! That will attract people specifically to HP
  13. with so many of our passengers being exempt from the first bag fee, I dont see it being a problem of losing any of our customers. Its well known, that this charge is only geared towards teh people who buy the hotwire, cheaptickets, etc type of tickets who search the internet constantly looking for the lowest fee. With an anticipated increase in $100 million dollars, its well worth this charge!!

    do we know how the Brown line will be built on Harrisburg when it goes underneath the train tracks near Dowling?? The city just spent all sorts of money on new trees and fake art sculptures and leaves no room for putting in tracks without cutting the traffic lanes from 2 to 1 lane.

    Unless you have a flashing red or blue light on the top of your car, you're not that important. You can wait an extra 15 seconds for 100 people to cross in front of you on a train while you're sipping you latte in your air conditioned SUV. okay, well first off, i dont drink coffee. Secondly, I dont drive to work, I either ride my bike or take the bus. thirdly, as busy as it is downtown with the traffic, this will just put more of navigating through downtown at more of a congestion. Why would we want to do that??? Why would we want to risk more accidents with drivers/walkers/bikers??

    yeah, we might even be able to walk outside for 2 blocks at a time during the summer months if it were elevated!!!! How long are you gonna have to sit at a light where it intersects with the red line??? its bad enough that you have to stop when both the train and the cars are going straight.

    Yeah really. They should build it elevated through downtown to help alleviate all the traffic congestion. Not to mention, the amount of traffic/train accidents just shot up a ton wtih this new line!!

    Houston hasn't been proven (so to speak) that a rail system would get enough ridership to justify the cost. what would be your source on a statement like this??? if we truly had a system where it is accessible and built to where people want to go, ridership levels would far exceed anyones goals at METRO.
  19. i think its fair to say, that after this weeks announcement, our so called "naming names" for IAH service to FCO/MXP are out the door. No need to feed the AZ market when we need to be feedign the LO/LH/OZ markets!!!!
  20. smoothie king would be a nice addition. i can't imagine starbucks would back out of this. it is a perfect location.
  21. wouldnt be so many foreclosures if people were smart and realize that having an adjustable interest rate is the most idiotic thing i have ever heard of!!
  22. having the FIS at terminal B is a great idea, and will only help us expand even further in teh future.
  23. where is the thread??? and when did it get bumped up to 50?? i thought it was proposed for 35-42?? I'm really not going to have a view out of my window if its that tall
