Hey my good people, my VJ family, I want to say thanks to all of you, geez it has been a rough journey and I know the most challenging part is probably yet to come but at least I will be with my SO. I want to extend my most sincere appreciation for all the help and encouragement I got here, no way I could have done this without you all, and that is not cliche by any stretch of the imagination.

On behalf of Ven, I sincerely thank you all for everything. I met some of wonderful people here that I'm sure will be lifetime friends. Sometimes you never know where life is going to take you, I'm glad mine led me to the VJ board because of you all.

For all those at various stages of this process, I say hang on in there, time will pass faster than you can imagine and today you are one step closer to your dream, and may your hearts be comforted as you continue on your journey...don't despair, you will get there. Thanks again.

WOW Wayne;

That was really sweet. I love a man who can write and express themselves so eloquently. No wonder Ven fell in love with you. I can imagine the conversations you both have. It was a pleasure sharing in your wonderful journey even though I do not post very often. My journey is on hold right now but I wish you both the very best life has to offer. May your reunion be filled with lots of hugs and kisses and memories to last for a lifetime.

Your VJ sis

I have clients that will never fly American and a couple that will *only* fly American. One bad experience traveling shouldn't make your choice not to fly them again. I had an absolutely horrible experience flying on US Airways....lost my sons luggage for over 24 hours while in Jamaica, but ....if the price is right :yes:

Their price would have to be about HALF of the other airlines for me to fly them again :yes:

I agree with you on the frequent flyer miles - they sure do make it hard to try and schedule those flights. That's why I was so upset when I had to delay/rebook my most recent JA trip due to the hurricane. I had a perfect flight booked using my miles. The flight there was even non-stop which is almost impossible to find from Detroit :(

I usually take US Airways with an layover in Charlotte, NC or AirJamaica. I haven't any had any major problems with either carriers although I love AirJamaica...only a 3 hour flight.

I LOVE non-stop flights. You save soooo much time that way and it's especially nice on the way back going through customs. I wish Air JA flew out of Detroit. Northwest is the only airline that sometimes has non-stop flights from Detroit to JA and even if they're more money, it's worth it to me :yes:
