June vs April Travel

Re: Sunset Ridge Villas

AC is now in the master bedrooms....We have traveled in April many times and have never needed AC due to the breeze from being up on the hill. (My husband puts AC in the first hot spell we have here in Maine and it doesn't come out until late October) He hasn't complained at all while at Sunset Ridg...

Re: Ticket concerns since merge of US Airways/ American

Your post motivated me to check our flights booked in April to make sure they hadn't gone "wonky". So far so good... I hope everything works out in your favor Spartyon.
