The new all black card looks pretty slick, though.
:-:

Great - a fourth black card in the wallet. I already hand Hyatt staff the SkyTeam USA card :D

It's oversold by two in the back.

Then why the Y4?

I usually don't carry wallet candy but I was informed upon check in at a Marriott last night that I would receive a complementary breakfast in the restaurant because the concierge lounge would be closed this morning; all I needed to do was show my Plat card. I related that I did not have my Plat card and so she wrote a note on the front desk manager's card. It worked just fine but I'm taking it for my trip tomorrow in case it is needed at some point.

I'm guessing because of the F5. They can still op up without having to VDB.

Wallet candy doesn't help during normal operations but during service disruptions ...

Yeah, I guess that makes sense.

Is SDC still available online after you check in?

Yes. Try OLCI again and if the new flight is not offered there try the "Change Flight" link by going to "View Reservation" and make the change that way.

Luckily I have not experienced anything too severe at a Marriott property but perhaps I will carry it when I travel from now on for that express purpose. The laws of large numbers and he who is named Murphy, and so forth.

Where do you keep your vehicle registration?
1. In the car
2. In your wallet\purse\checkbook

It belongs in the CAR. If you keep it anywhere else you're going to be in a bit of trouble when you need it because you've been pulled over and it's in your other wallet/purse/checkbook (who keeps stuff in their checkbook? :confused:)

Ask the people who worry about the car getting stolen the last time that happened to them? Then ask them when they last misplaced their wallet/purse/checkbook. Besides, you can always put the registration in a special place in your car that no thief would find.

Usually not for the property you expect to be at - things go completely pear-shaped, you're not where expected, and you need to get problems solved. For instance, my car became disabled on the way to ATL to fly to KOA. Facilitation payments may also help in this situation.

In many states, there's a difference between registration sticker (if one exists) and vehicle registration card ... VA's registration sticker caused me to need to pay for a new windshield after getting hit by a rock directly behind the large registration and inspection stickers. Didn't see the crack until too late.

Those states are dumb... ;):D

In my state, I pay the registration fee and can essentially do what I want. No inspections or such needed.

I'm gonna shut it down early; thought I was tired, kinda tired but not really. Anyhoo, bed feels really good now.
