I was curious so I googled Flying J. US locations: There are Canadian locations too. There are .pdf "printer friendly" location files, and what looks like GPS coordinate files, that one can download. FWIW, I found these pages *incredibly* slow to load. Personally I'd print off the .pdf location file before hitting the road. And this from their website: "Flying J's custom built Travel Plazas are generally located on spacious 20 to 25 acre sites featuring easy access, attractive landscaping, and plenty of lighting to facilitate customer safety. The large paved parking lots accommodate numerous tractor/trailers, automobiles, and RVs. Open 24 hours per day, 365 days a year. Flying J travel plazas offer a wide range of amenities including an extensive convenience store, a full-service restaurant offering quality casual dining for interstate travelers and local residents and fast food courts for travelers on the go. Driver Services Kiosks are strategically placed in the plazas and provide customers with fax and copy service, pre-paid calling cards, trip routing and mileage reports, equipment posting, load matching, and even floral delivery. Callboard services provide information on local business options. Along with ATMs and postal services, Flying J Travel Plazas offer calibrated J-Scales for drivers who need an accurate weight of their freight and equipment. Flying J facilities also provide a theater style drivers' lounge with large screen TV and interactive game rooms for today's professional drivers. Personal access codes entered into electronic keypads at each of its shower doors permit safe, easy entry into immaculate, private shower rooms with deadbolt locks installed for privacy and security. Rows of private phone booths and laundry facilities allow drivers to take care of business as well as personal needs. At select locations, high quality highway lodging is available at our Crystal Inns, Flying J Motor Inns or Best Rest Inns." Cheers, Neil.
