I received it as well. I don't know if Plus1 did. If Hyatt would have handled a customer service issue (wrote a letter and they called, said they would have someone follow up twice; never did) they might have a chance. Instead they get zero business from me.

Just logged into the reservation and alll segments look good.

they are not in the locations I need, so I can't stay them much. SPG and Marriott are much more valuable to me.

You also know my Hyatt affinity well. WN and Chevron/Texaco are both on my absolute zero revenue from me list.

I got sent a SPG promotion this morning for the free weekend nights that also includes 1,000 bonus DL/NW miles per stay (and the stay in PHL will be my "expensive" one) - re-registered earlier today before the stay this weekend.

I received this lame-o "bonus" earlier, but my most recent bonus from this morning (posted above) was definitely not so lame.

In order to (temporarily) take my mind off of the impending legal predicament...

Anyone else watching/care about the Champions League final? As a neutral, this should be a good game...

FWIW, I live on campus, don't pay rent, etc...it's literally like living in a dorm. I wonder if the "my permanent residence is my parents' house in CLE" argument would hold up (I never changed it throughout college/grad school).

I would not make an issue of where you live. You live in OH. Call the court to reschedule. You be here for your (rescheduled) court date. You don't want to add to the penalties, do you?

Stupid CO dropping my seat assignments for an upcoming trip. Of course the exit row seats I wanted are gone on the flights.

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: :rolleyes::rolleyes:

The gf just sent me a text from EWR "What do you guys call those people that crowd the gate area before boarding ?"

I was sitting in the Pclub and had to change my flight to make it. Now I get in four hours later even though I'm only leaving an hour later. :rolleyes:

I would have been quite livid if they cancelled it after i changed my flight, but they didn't.

Have to listen to the Podcast still. How was the rest of your trip this weekend? Hope you have better travels the rest of the week.

I never got a meal but I did take Defensive Driving from a professional clown in TExas!

BTW, I may have mentioned before, is it just me or have you seen an increase in the number of people trying to get into the club without a membership? I even saw a guy last night guest someone in and then try to leave immediately only to have the agent question him about his guest. The guy came back in and then left about 5 seconds later saying the guy was appling for a membership which the guy did get materials but hadnt applied on the spot. On Friday, I witnessed the agent having to forcefully ask a gentleman to leave the lobby of the E PC as he didnt have a pass and was trying to use the internet vis the chairs in the lobby.

BTW, I did see Tripp last night in the E PC and he is improving. Should be getting his bike back this week and hasnt decided when he will ride again. Still sore from injuries but outta the cast.

Besides that not much else new.

The next flight is in 4 hours and it doesn't look good.

She now knows not to be a "good little standby customer".

So sorry to hear about your daughter being stuck in IAH - what a nightmare for both of you!
