Tuohey: Atta And Omari In First Class Options

[Zaphod 36]

He thought the pair were unusual. First, they each held a $2,500 first-class, one-way ticket to Los Angeles (via Boston). "You don't see many of those." Philly News

While Atta had been selected by CAPPS in Portland, three members of his hijacking team-Suqami, Wail al Shehri, and Waleed al Shehri-were selected in Boston. Their selection affected only the handling of their checked bags, not their screening at the checkpoint. All five men cleared the checkpoint and made their way to the gate for American 11. Atta, Omari, and Suqami took their seats in business class (seats 8D, 8G, and 10B, respectively). Link

Somebody is lying.
I remember Woodys research on Atta at the gate in Boston(where he was observed by Lynn Howland) and think the two men in Portland were NOT Atta and Omari.

Was the money ever followed?

Somebody has good connections to be able to put their butts into first class while the poor folks in the back are paying only $300 get to LA at the same time.

$2500 is some serious bar tab.

The two names were Mohamed Atta and Abdulaziz Alomari. She also noticed the two were to sit in First Class on American Airlines Flight 11.Link
Diane Graney is the second witness of the First-Class-Ticket.

Was the money ever followed?

I dont´t know.
My Question:
Who has bought First Class AND Business Class-Tickets for Atta and Alomari? Why 4 tickets for 2 persons?

A friend of a friend was flying out of Newark in September 2001. As he proceeded to his airplane on the morning of 11 September, he and others wondered why nobody manned the "security checkpoints"???

There was a play going on that day.

The FBI document http://de.scribd.com/doc/16313323/T7-B18-A...ontents-FBI-302
shows clearly that Atta and Alomari each had a $2113 ticket for coach on the leg to Boston, and business class on AA11.
This is consistent with the Boston Globe seating graphic http://www.911myths.com/index.php/No_hijac...enger_manifests.
On the other hand the two "Alshehris" (Wail and Waleed) seemed to have had first class tickets.

The document http://de.scribd.com/doc/16344936/T7-B18-A...ooking-Info-555 is also interesting in several ways.
It states that the first class tickets for the "Alshehris" cost $2232.25 each, not exactly $2500.
It also states that the tickets were both in the wrong names, I have absolutely no idea how they could board the plane with these.

It also states that Alomari had lost his ticket and got a replacement in BOS. I was under the impression that the timing was very tight and that Atta and Alomari nearly missed their plane in BOS. To imagine filling out a form and getting a replacement under these conditions is difficult. It also means that Alomari must have lost the ticket while on the way to BOS, otherwise he would not have been on the first leg with Atta.

I just learned that the replacement of Alomaris ticket did take place on Sep. 9, 2001 in BOS. So the last paragraph makes no sense.
