I sent a congratulations/feeler email, only to find out that he had not been picked up. Great, yeah, that's a good way to keep a contact. She doesn't listen when people talk to her, and doesn't care if her misinformation results in problems. How she operates a successful business mystifies me some days.

Been there, it blows. :td:

@ GTITAN - If someone is looking at NYC-INDIA flights
What would be the best combination of airlines that could be credited to OW ?
Do 9W flights have to be coded AA to earn miles ?
If flying via LHR would they have to fly AA TATL and BA LHR-DEL to be able to credit to AA?

Oh...crystal ball -- is there any chance of a VDB on 1427 (IAH-ONT) t'morrow?! I see that Y is full! Also I'm not appearing on any EUA lists for that flight or 311 t'morrow!:confused: I am such a newbie w/all this!:(:rolleyes:

Crystal ball says, "No such luck. Lots of seats in F, so maybe you'll get an upgrade."

Have a nice flight and dinner with your friend.

Greetings from EWR-A.

The TSA agents were talking about a "situation" and how it's been causing problems all day. Sounded like they weren't having a good day.

The EWR-A Pclub Wifi is worse that C-3. I gave up.

AT&T blows, my data card hasn't been getting any througput. It ocnnects, and then decides not to send packets.

Well AA does fly direct to Delhi from ORD of course.

Jet does need to be AA coded if you want AA EQM but not RDM.
http://www.aa.com/i18n/AAdvantage/pa...jetAirways.jsp

As to LHR, if you want AA miles, you can do BA TATL but not from the US, so YYZ, MEX, or the Bahamas would work. Otherwise, you're correct, it would be AA from the US and then BA to DEL.

Rule with AA to follow, except with respect to BA and TATL, fly a partner under a AA Flight NO. and 99.99% of the time you will accrue AA EQMs and AA RDMs in full. Fly a partner under its own code and then look at the byzantine rules as to accrual.

Hope this helps.
