Assume the times you stated are incorrect ... but an hour twenty is definitely not enough time at LHR. Heathrow is a disaster to negotiate. Signage is expensive there, so they had little last time...

No, no, you're not vague or negative, you're realistic. I'm sitting on a boat-load of FC miles and frequently wonder if I'll ever be able to use them. LOVE that evening SFO-LHR flight in UC and...

If you don't know that the issuing entity owns your points and miles, you shouldn't participate in a loyalty program. If you do know that, then selling points and miles is cheating. No amount of...

Thanks

You've given me my laugh for the week, Nick. Normally I'd be all over buying VS miles at such a good price ... I think Upper Class is the greatest. But I have so many points and miles waiting for the...

This is an easy one ... leave the MIL in the terminal with the kid, hike over to In&Out and bring them back something. Even a lukewarm In&Out burger is better than all others.
