Mike,
Can you tell me ... did you pay online and get an email for etickets ? Are
THESE etickets like the airlines etickets ? Meaning - I am IN the airlines
system , so I can print a boarding pass from home and walk to gate ? Or
do I need to check in - in person - the day of the flight ? On each leg of
the flight ? That's my real concern as I don't want to have to wait in
line in Boston / Seattle / San Jose and Vegas to get a boarding pass from
Alaska Air / UsAir/ America West and Delta.
As for carry-ons .... will do : I have small shampoos/toothpaste etc.
Thanks.
