well, i inquired today at AMAZONAS, and the guy quoted
me $1200 on a UNITED AIRLINE FLIGHT as well. i told him we'd
be a group of ten or more (another agent told me a group
constitutes ten people), and he said he'd have to look into
it. i'm supposed to call back tomorrow afternoon.

COUNCIL TRAVEL'S NEW YORK DEPARTMENT hasn't gotten back to
me about the fax i sent them yesterday....

JASON MAYFIELD, are you going to be able to get ten or more
of us down there at your discount, do you think?

i've got info on argentina and the stadium as well, and
i'm gonna post that in a bit.

in a bit,
elena
