    Fly United, even though they don't have the same inflight entertainment as qantas and virgin, the plane is unlikely to be full, and the attendants don't mind people standing up at the back of the plane.

    Another update, did the underground tour of Seattle's Pioneer district very informative and funny as well, the story of Seattles early beginnings is remarkable, then followed that with a trip to the top of the Columbia Tower which is 70 floors up, great views obviously but alas no Mt Rainier.

    Seriously, it won't happen, ppl need to stop believing the US is full of bad guys and gun toting murderers, the Mexicans are hard working friendly ppl, show them respect and they will repay it in kind, come to the States and soak it up.
