As for the aviation expert, he is a total tool who doesn't like the Yankees. 200k is obviously a sponsored fare for a 787 to get JAL publicity as well. Looks to me like he got a good deal and a trip on a 787 to boot smile.gif

The offers on the aviation brokers dot com website (for a 6 person one way trip) start at


€ 154.390 ($ 210.891) for a Gulfstream V, 


G550: € 193.239 ($ 263.957)
Global Express: € 194.929 ($ 266.265)


At the end of the line there are offers for 2 big ones:


Boeing Business Jet: € 373.047 ($ 509.567) and
Boeing 767-200 VIP: € 872.294 ($ 1.191.520)

200k for a chartered 787. Great deal!

I saw that on ESPN today.  With the money he's getting paid, $200K is like me spending $20 bucks.  If you're gonna travel, might as well go in style like he did.

As a big NYY fan, even I can be appalled at some of the money the team throws around... All this for a #3 starter (per their GM)? Wow...

Send him first class commercial and I'll take the other $198k!

They didn't charter the plane he did and it was because the regularly scheduled first class flight he was taking(that the Yankees pay for per his contract) was cancelled.  Go back and read the article...
