1. Seriously?
I think I flew that route on Delta a couple times. But that was about 15 years ago.

16. That got me to thinking...
I held my Mac's "control" simultaneously and saved it to a downloaded folder!

Thanks!

6. There are no direct flights from Hartford CT to San Jose, CA either
It's a pain since I fly into Hartford when I go home for a visit. I always have to change planes, usually at O'Hare :scared: which I hate.

It's wierd that there are no direct flights to Atlanta because every other flight I see to anywhere changes planes at Atlanta. :P

8. I remember flying direct to Atlanta
but that was from Zurich or Stuttgart. This is the first time I check flights from Frankfurt to Atlanta. Frankfurt is the biggest airport in Germany so I am amazed there are no direct flights. Go figure.

The worst airport for me so far is Philadelphia. It was the horror the last time

12. But I've flown that route before.
It was 20 years ago.

American used to fly that route because Atlanta was a hub. Strange that they would stop.

17. Delta, Lufthansa and United seem to have a *FEW*
Try kayak.com if you haven't already - might depend on your exact dates, but I found a few in the $700 range... good luck!!
