Just finishing up three fabulous days in Bahrain; met up with MrPickles and MileTex for the first couple of days and toured solo today. I'll post a mini trip report with touring details in the Community thread. But I wanted to acknowledge and thank MrPickles for being such a great touring companion (and driver extraordinaire) and MileTex for being a fun guy to hang out with. Thanks guys, you made my first two days in Bahrain very enjoyable.

Looks like we have several FTers on UA 981 tonight. If anyone is in the mood for a short conversation or at least a quick hello, then I'm in 34H (with my fingers crossed that the row remains open )

Hi,
Not sure anyone is updating the wiki these days, but I don't have enough posts, so if someone could update: seat 27H on Dec 1 return flight from BAH, and staying at HIX 11/29-12/1, greatly appreciated.

Pleasure meeting you all yesterday/today - enki, scratchphysics, Mitch & bigbellyflyer on the outbound - hope you all have safe travels on the way back...and maybe think about staying next time! Enki - you were right to go straight for the lounge tonight, it took me an hour to get through the visa line since multiple flights arrived just before us, including some racing teams for an event this week (2 wks ago it took less than 10 min).

Just a note to those who United put up at the Lansdowne Resort, I see that the hotel ultimately did not credit me for the food vouchers used there and instead charged against the card on file for the room guarantee...

The meal vouchers were good at participating vendors in the airport, according to the fine print.

Their eligibility for use at the hotel was mentioned several times by "Joe" the gentleman giving updates at the Customer Service desk.

Similarly, the resort confirmed that they could be used at any of the restaurants in the hotel as well as the gift shop. This was confirmed by the front staff at checkin and again, the following day before I checked out.

So the point is, if you were told this and used your voucher at the Lansdowne Resort, you may want to check the billing statement for the card used to guarantee the room. I saw two others using vouchers at the hotel, hence the PSA.

I agree -- it was great meeting everyone, including a few that I didn't get names of at the lounge in BAH. Most everyone who did the turn left on the UA flight. I'm in FRA right now in the Senator lounge near the Z gates. All things considered, I'm not as wrecked as I expected, considering I'm not even sure what day it is!

What a fascinating way to travel, though I agree that staying next time should be a priority. If only the original frequency would have stuck...

Safe travels, all!

35,000 miles for the non-cleared upgrade still haven't been redeposited.
I spoke with Mileage + and got the miles redeposited, although they haven't shown up in the online statement yet.

I was told to contact Customer Care regarding the missing $500 e-certificate by clicking on the Ask Alex link on the upper right of the page. I typed Customer Care in the resulting dialog, hit return, and was immediately directed to the Customer Care form with my name, M+ number, and status already filled in. Nice!

I asked for the second e-cert politely. <<crossing fingers/toes/arms/legs/eyes>>

The feeling is mutual and I think we are all now lifelong friends. I got to sit with MileTex at the lounge in IAD and turned out to be seat mates on the IAD-LAX route. I would have never gone to the Tree of Life if it were not for you and it made a nice little post on my blog with photos. And the trip to the king's camel farm was especially fun. ^^^

Update: All Goodies claimed.


For those who have a run coming up, I have a spare UA club pass that expires 12/31/13 and 5 UA drink coupons that expire 1/31/14 that I won't be using. Please PM if you would use the pass or drink coupons (but not both). If you get the 5 drink coupons, please share with others on the run or the people around you.

My run was a pleasure and I hope to help with yours.
