I would book the hotels now. I just booked 10 rooms at the Nopsi 4 star for $200.00 5 minutes ago 2) Alternative fairly close airports, which would then include a car rental are Mobile Alabama, Pensacola Florida about 3 hours away. Birmingham , Alabama is 4.5 hours away 3) Also the weekend of the Bayou Classic, Grambling vs Southern which is a very BIG game, so hotels will go very very fast thanks I just booked this hotel based upon this post.

For Thanksgiving 2018 and 2019, she was unable to eat any Thanksgiving dinner due to cancer treatments. Last year, Covid and no family. So she's looking forward to this Thanksgiving with family and able to to eat the turkey and homemade stuffing. Maybe she'll let me buy like an 85" TV for post-meal football.

Punching Bag Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 33 minutes ago, BUFFALOBART said: I'd place a call to Customer Service @ 800-433-7300 and file a firm, but polite complaint. I made multiple complaints at time and their answer was "It was detailed on credit letter that credit is from date of purchase" except I never received such letter. All of the other airlines refunded money not gave credit. At time I did search and there were a number other customers had issues with credit including credit not available when they attempted to book or could not be used on certain fare classes. It is old wound (2005) but hurts every time New Orleans is mentioned since I had done two business trips prior there at full price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 For nearly twenty years I've made the entire Thanksgiving dinner for a family gathering of around 20 people, but when the Bills were in Dallas they knew they were on their own. My wife and I went to the game and had a full thanksgiving meal at a restaurant not to far from Cowboys Stadium. We had a blast! We'll definitely do it again.

Logic Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I love Thanksgiving. I love Bills games. I do not love having Bills games on Thanksgiving day. A Bills loss often makes me a grumpy Gus, and spending the whole day around my family has the potential to do the same. It's just...it's not a good combination for me.
