GW, kipper and I also had religious-themed beer:
Sadly, I was not at all a fan of the ThunderHop IPA, but did have an excellent Jägerschnitzel off their special Oktoberfest dinner menu.
Before dinner we stopped by to pay our respects:
Miss you, Dave -- RIP

Well I made a post in the Newbie Lounge/Flame Free Questions thread asking if In-App buy-ups counted towards MQDs. Was asking with regards to an international segment where I’m considering it and would buy-up to D1 but I could get more than enough MQDs than I’d need to hit DM if I took advantage of this *spectacular* offer on JFK-CMH instead!

Good morning Lounge.
Due to the lack of flying we've done this year, for the first time ever, we have 3 Reserve Companion Certificates that we will not be able to use. Any of you are welcome to them, so if you want to use one or more, PM me and we'll get it done.
They are good for Domestic Travel in D1, First, PS, or Main Cabin with a Fare Class restriction of I or Z for D1 or F. The flights MUST be completed by the Certificate expiration date.
2 of the Certificates expire on 1/31/2023 and 1 expires on 2/28/2023. There's plenty of time to get trips booked.
If you're not familiar with them, I've put the T&C's at the bottom of this post. They are fully transferable so I can give them to anyone. Obviously, there's no charge, they're yours free. People complain about not being able to use them but we've never had a problem as long as we've book well in advance and have some date flexibility (same as using GUCs/RUCs).
It's a great way to take someone on a trip with you. They won't get any credit, NO MQM.MQD or RDM, but their only expense are the AY $5.60 fees.
The tickets must be booked through my Dl account and I expect you to pay for them with your CC. Here's how we do that securely -
I log into delta.com and connect your computer up to mine for screen sharing. You should already have checked flights and you can then proceed to do the booking and pay with your CC. The trip then shows on your DL account and you control it. I'm available to help if you need me.

Is that "Pre-Prohibition Lager" still potable after 102+ years?
It's been 102 years since a bunch of busy-body women (WCTU) succeeded in taking away our beer for 12 long years.

Happy SATurDAY 
Been a busy day of work around the house.
Have any loungers flown the Korean Air A380 in economy and if so do you have any recommendation on seats? Are Row 28A/B/C or Row 30 bulkhead good? Or the exit row? (No availability in Row 42 - only in Row 52).
Also, does KE do any online buy-ups to Prestige either in advance or at check-in?
