this takes “planning ahead” to a ridiculous extreme
I booked this trip on 30 Mar ... today is 2 Apr
and oh by the way I **live in** Seattle, so this trip is a RETURN HOME (and oh by the way I haven’t seen a “Get ready for” email for the outbound a week earlier)

Yeah, the timing of some of their canned emails is pretty funny. Get excited.... it's only 6 months away!! I have numerous trips out and back from home planned and they often notify me to "get excited" for a trip 3 trips from now I'm sorry... the most excited I can get is for the next trip.... I just don't have anymore joy in me.

“funny” and “excited” REALLY aren’t the first words that come to my mind :/
I have SBA next month and OGG a couple weeks after this Oct trip (and the outbound for this one is MCO) — all new AS destinations for me; why the &@#%€ can’t they put a simple search in the program that generates these emails?
(no, I’m not really confused, and no, I REALLY don’t need an answer )

I wish that AS would reopen the Lounge at JFK. With NY traffic, you have to arrive early. With UA resuming flights at JFK T7, AS could make a little money by accepting Priority Pass and charging UA to use the Lounge.

So I've checked in for a flight tomorrow morning. 2 PAX on the res, one 75K the other Gold. We don't show up on the Upgrade list for the flight status. Is something wonky in the display or are we not on the upgrade list?
ETA: I called in and we were indeed not on the list. Something was wonky with the res, they were able to fix, we are now #1 and #2 on the UG list. Wonder if that also meant we got skipped in the automatic process as the flight showed about half full in F a couple of days ago and is now full. Beware!

Generally, it's advised against posting the same question simultaneously in 3 different threads. I've responded to your first post in the flame-free thread.

I haven't been getting much traction in threads and it's for a 5+ hour flight tomorrow, so I was hoping to maximize chance of answer. I suspect that we already got screwed by the IT as the cabin filled over the past two days and it now doesn't show anyone on the UG list except the two of us...

Matanuska Valley Credit Union. I just heard a commercial on the TV for this - turned around to make sure I was hearing correctly. Then I looked out the window and it certainly looks like my hotel is in Honolulu, and I know the AC has been on all night in April, and then I looked online and indeed, said CU has a branch here.
Unfortunately, the Mauka view makes it impossible to see if Russia should be viewable from here.

I see for FAI that "the Military Courtesy Lounge is reserved for passengers with specific credentials such as elite status, premium tickets, or other access methods that are required for entry.” Does such elite status possibly include AS MVP?
