    i heart NY stuff is everywhere yeah.. there are plenty of shops around times square where you can get 10 t-shirts for like $10... is it really worth trying to find official stuff and paying over the odds..

    if you want official stuff, try things like bloomies, or maybe even the nbc shop etc etc

    as for the webcam sorry.. can't find one there.. if you can, try arrange a time to meet on the webcams in times square, there are a number, and they will give you a great shot and she'll be able to wave at you!!!!

    webcams in times square

    TGI Fridays - http://www.earthcam.com/usa/newyork/timessquare/index.php?cam=fridays

    that is probably the best one for getting wave... probably have to be on the phone at the same time, but it is doable..

    Hi Marky (and other NY experts)...I know you've done the delta airlines thing before so I thought you might know the answer to this...I bought my ticket on exepdia and its via Airfrance (hence it has an 057 e ticket number) - I'm trying to check in online since I fly tomorrow - and it wont work on either Air France or Delta's website - any ideas?? I dont mind doing it tomorrow at the desk but I just wondered if I'm doing something wrong...:(

    delta don't accept online check in for TATL flights, their online check in only works for internal US flights!!!

    you'll go to the delta airlines desks. When you enter the airport, you'll look for your flight number, which will scroll/alternate between the actual delta flight number, and then go to the desks, which will be delta desks..

    have fun... :). or should i say.. have fun :(.... lol...
