1. Haha nice. I like the FlyAway honestly better than any other city’s service I’ve used. Sure, I’d love to see a train instead, but… what, Philly’s R1? No THANK you. Freeze my rear off waiting for the El? I don’t think so. The insufferable trip on the A to Manhattan from JFK? I’m not feeling any happier. Boston’s overcrowded city bus, complete with the 5 minute switch from overhead power to CNG in the middle of a South Boston parking lot? Are you kidding me?!

   So yeah, I’m overall happy with this. I’m not even sure I’d take the green line to the airport if they extended it into LAX, not with the hassle of changing from red/blue/green. I can’t see how that could ever be any shorter than the FlyAway, time-wise.

   And on that note, free fares, whee, I get to save money on my pick-up run to the airport next weekend *laugh*.

3. i love the flyaway for many reasons. Recently I discovered it serves as the perfect accomplice in business trip expense report fraud. 55 dollar cab ride or 3 bus ride, hmmmmmmm…..

   one problem with the flyaway: consistent playing of slightly-too-loud smooth jazz.
