The food I had on Zipair was actually pretty good. It's been awhile where I can say I enjoyed a meal on a plane lol.

Getting insurance for short term probably isn't worth it. What would you do with the car when you're done? Sell it back or abandon? Not sure this is an ideal situation.
Thanks. I'll double check the dates and consider this, assuming the situation improves and travel restrictions are lifted.

lol i wish
The original plan was to go multiple times and multiple destinations. My employer said no to 4 - 6 months for a variety of reasons (use your imagination on this) but they were okay with short spurts of 2 week intervals and multiple destinations.
Original destinations: Istanbul, Grenoble, Paris, Frankfurt, Milan, and Munich.
Now:  (Thanks for nothing, Trump.)

Oh, I didn't realize there was a Zip Air Japan.
I was thinking of the original 4321zip air that AC absorbed into Jazz.

Not really asking for good food.. just edible and doesn't look like slop that got printed in a machine.

Arson at Story Cafe ... you guys like this place? A bit overpriced but cool spot for brunch and all.

I've been there quite a few times. Nice place to go for brunch but also a decent option for dinner dates because they sometimes have live music performing.

100% Badhobz (I'm only kidding)
I tried going there about three times and every time, they were fully booked or the entire restaurant was closed for a private event. Sad situation. I hope they recover and get back up and running ASAP and the police catch those who were responsible for committing this crime.

1000% not me, that place is overpriced and stupid. Given the proximity to costco why would anyone go there?
