FT's obsession with what people do with their bag tags is truly one of the most puzzling aspect of this place (and it's not like FT is lacking in weird things about it!).

Not a LOT matter, but hilarious all the same as he is in KTW next week for "climate change" talks...yawn.
Imagine how much of a LOSER you must be to put a BA Gold tag on your suit carrier? I mean..its loser to the extreme. I would have loved to pull him up on it.
That loser is the Secretary General of NATO. "Oh yes Sir, put your BA Gold tag on your suit so BArbara knows how premium you are when you enter her legacy cabins".
So embarrassing. I am embarrassed for him.

IIRC he used to have his TP Gold Card on his carry on, when he was the High Commissioner at UNHCR, I used to see him frequently in the GVA Gold/SEN lounge.
In his defense he is probably one of the most unassuming politician/diplomat you'll ever find and seems to be trying on climate change .

The guy with the suit carrier is definitely NOT Jens Stoltenberg, sec-gen of NATO.

Superb offer I have received from LOT.
PLEASE don't all rush at once. You'll crash the site.

You know that most members of the human race have less mathematical ability than monkeys, and they count on this.

Understanding LOT fare class codes
i hope this is the appropriate thread. can anyone explain LOT fare classes?
flying them for the first time, on LOT stock 080.
Ana and UA sites (sorry, not allowed to post links here yet) refer to LOT fare classes by common single-character codes but my LOT ticket includes a 6-character fare code e.g. LTXWAN.
how do these map? i understand that it is an economy, or discount economy, ticket but trying to understand if i will received any UA miles and if so, how many.

I booked KRK-VIE which is operated by Laudamotion for Ryanair, so a 321. Fare was as low as 12zl but I paid 34zl. Includes the 10kg bag by default due to the operator. Ryanair are also doing KTW-MXP.
I'm loving the competitive market in Poland right now. Compare those fares to OS with their crappy Dash and their rubbish lounge in VIE.
My FR tolerance is very low, in other words, I'll give them as few beans as possible. Very rarely does a FR ticket I would buy cover even the (UK) APD. Essentially I love FR because they force everybody else to be cheap.
Walking around the Rynek in Krakow the other day, hearing many regional accents, it really occurred to me how much Poland owes Ryanair for boosting its tourism. Sure, it helps there's no terrorism too

[OT] Why document control on arrival from ZRH?
Is there anything going on? I think last time they had these controls during the NATO summit (2016?).
Arrived from ZRH this morning. Most passengers were not prepared to show documents so the process was very slow.
PS. I was on a LX flight

Maybe because of the summit in KTW?
My sister and her boyfriend were severely impacted by this. He either lost his wallet between the gate in EIN and getting off in KTW or it was stolen from the airplane, and subsequently they were detained for 3+ hours. In normal circumstances in Schengen this should be a non-issue...
