Places you go because you have to?

I live in Denver (love it!) and my territory is the four corner states plus Wyoming. Our home office is in LA and we have major operations near BUR, SAN, MCI and OKC.

Here's my list of likes:

ABQ all the time - love the green chile
SLC all the time -- it's beautiful
PHX in the winter. Need to parlay that into a family trip to the Grand Canyon.
LAX/BUR -- hate the traffic, love the vibe
SAN -- wife grew up in La Jolla
AUS -- it's just groovy

My list of would rather nots:

PHX in the summer
OKC
MCI, except every once in a while for the barbeque
DFW -- the metropolis is paved

I'm in OKC now, because I have to. Where to you go because you have to?

 

Dallas

 

I'm a born and bred Angeleno...traffic ain't TOO bad!
I go to school in La Jolla...not San Diego,but La Jolla

Hmm...I've been to ATL more times than I care for due to Air Force work....not cause I Fly Delta Jets

 

I go to school because I have to. But unfortunatly I dont get miles for that.

 

Because I HAVE to...

South Dakota - Extended family is from there
DFW
Outside the perimeter in ATL... to get to Costco.

 

Because i have to - wherever the client site is located

 

ATL. And work.

 

Love to:
UKY
MSY
YVR
PDX
SEA
NRT

Rather not:
MIA

 

Have tos: DCA mostly, but have done have to trips to BUF, RAP, ADQ, CHS, PWM, DLH, IND, JAN, DFW (super-uck), IAH, MIA

I don't dislike all of those above. I really liked work travel to ADQ, ORD, BOS, TPA, LHR, BRU, FRA, SIN, BKK and SFO

 

Strictly work, never another reason:
CLT
ORD (and any other airport in the US that is not on one of the coasts, for that matter)
LHR
LOS (oh, well, all of West Africa)

I will go for personal business or pleasure:
almost anywhere else.

 

SVO (Moscow), close to once a year for almost two decades.

 

YYZ to connect for flights onward.

 

MXP, VCE, FLR, FCO.

 

I go to SLC often for work, too, and I absolutely love it. It's beautiful there, and they actually have seasons, unlike here in SAT!

 

My work takes me around the Midwest quite a bit, and there are quite a few places I don't relish the thought of returning to, mostly:

DTW, CLE, IND, OMA, DSM and CVG. As an AA flyer, I also find myself in DFW, which is has zero appeal to me as a destination.

Heading off to CLE (unfortunately) for the 3rd time in 6 months on Monday.

 

These days, the "Places I go because I HAVE to": Anaheim. SJC. LAX area. Used to include ELP, McAllen, Ft. Worth, DTW, STL, and BUF.

Love: a LOT of places. Really. Make an adventure out of it.

 

Going to DSM tomorrow. Going for a funeral makes it worse.

 

The bathroom.

I hate Vegas, but being in the Exhibit industry, I end up going there way more often than I would like. As a matter of fat I am there right now.

Fortunately, we are staying at the Four Seasons on a smoking rate provided by one of our vendors. The tranquility of this hotel takes the crazy egde off Vegas.

Our room overlooks the airport, which I love. It is so fun to watch airplanes.

 

Have tos:
DCA for work
LAS to supplement income

 

As a northerner, I'm finding it to warm heading to MCO these days.
The only thing I don't really like about DTW is when there I find myself downtown and food options (for where I am) become limited.

 

DFW, ABQ, ATL, CVG, BNA, SEA, OSL, RUH, MTY, GIG, YYZ, YUL, DEN, EWR just to name a few.

And I can find things I like about them all including EWR (since I grew up in NJ of course )

I love to travel and be on the road whether for business or pleasure, there's really no place that I don't like to go.

 

Because I have to - Lynchburg, VA.
