Nobody cared about my complaint as much as ice. Not ICE, which is worth complaining about, but ice...

I guess it wasn't random and pathetic enough.

My chickens have figured out how to circumvent my anti-poultry porch security system and have resumed normal carpet bombing operations and cat food raids.

You've given a good graphic for the "carpet bombing."

about one in five times I try to SDC on a paid F ticket the PM line agent gives me the same line


more significantly, the photo uploader apparently hates my iPhone XR ... I can only get it to work maybe one time out of a dozen, and even then it takes over 5 minutes to complete the process

When people post real frustrations like this then get told on here "well buy first so you can SDC to any flight!" as if everyone has expense accounts and unlimited funds to always buy first...

When the nutritional information table on a pint of Ben & Jerry’s claims “Number of Servings: 4”

Tell me of a single instance in recorded human history that anyone got 4 servings out of a pint of B&J and I’ll show you a liar.

The worst part about this particular instance was the fare class paid was more than the higher class listed for sale in the 24 hour window (Paid T, only Q was available). I didn’t HUCA as there are other things I’d rather do on my day off than talk to DL phone agents.

Hands down, this is where United wins. By far the best SDC policy in the industry and a perk I use 50% of the time.

United requires fare class availability, even in F, and the bucket-leveling that apparently used to happen several hours before flight occurs much closer to actual departure time if at all IME. You also have to be within 24 hours of both the flight you are SDCing away from and the one you are SDCing too.

UA SDC is better if you want to switch an to a different calendar day, switch from connecting to nonstop, or are on an international itinerary

DL SDC is better if you are in F, or want to switch to a later flight, or DM coterminal

I think JetBlue might have them beat, though often not a lot to change to. But no nonsense with classes and changes are free.

I hate when the mods move a thread I'm interested in to a wiki, and I have to scroll through 10 years of posts to find the new replies.
