How bad is it?
Do you think it is common that you have to gate check your rollaboard wheeled carry on bag nearly all the time? In reality, if one more bag has to be fit into the bins, it is always possible. There is always enough slack to fit one more bag but not necessarily 10 more.
I believe you can expect to have a middle seat in the back thir... Read More |

It's been about 10 years since I last connected from an international flight in Atlanta; it was such a bad experience I've sworn off doing it again. Until now...
By "bad" I mean the luggage took at least an hour to reach the carousel, and the customs/immigration lines were extremely long. Not fun....and it made me since appreciate - and favor... Read More |

Just spoke with MileagePlus to roll over 80 +P points that were set to expire by end of January 2020 and request a new yellow handle wrap for Mrs. Laughinlab. They told me that the yellow handle wraps are going away and will be replaced with Robin’s Egg Blue wraps that will be sent out in the new welcome kits for 2020. Read More |

So I'm booking a return flight SAN --> PHL for family of 3 and want to do a quick hop then ride on the 788 out of LAX. If I book a standard one way fare - it's $301 (see screengrab). And if I book "Multi City" and create the identical itinerary, it's $255. Other than the obvious cost savings - are their any other advantages/disadvantages to booking... Read More |

On Sunday morning, December 8, 2019, flight LX319 was cancelled due to a fuel leak. I fully understand this action. However, what took place afterwards was completely unacceptable.
I was rebooked on Lufthansa LH 915, scheduled to depart LHR at 17:30. I had informed the Customer Service in LHR Terminal 2, that I could travel to Geneva, Basel or Zuri... Read More |

Tomorrow we are flying out of Sydney on Virgin Australia (J) to HKG, connecting the next day (less than 24 hours, thank goodness) with CX (F or J) out of HKG.
Will we be able to check our two larger bags straight through, and just take our overnight carry-ons to the Regal for the night?
Too bad there is no longer a transit hotel at HKIA, but ev... Read More |

Due to the travel distance/time, we would like to fly J for lie-flat seats. DL/KE are charging $9k-$10k per person whereas AA/Cathay/JAL are half the price at $4.8k. Below... Read More |

I am flying East Coast -> SFO a few times a year, and as a DM, my upgrade chances have been somewhere in the 30-50% range (not bad, considering the route). The flights are old-fashioned "F" flights, not D1.
Given the competitive upgrades on this route, I tend to use regional certificates. But I noticed recently that about a week before the fligh... Read More |
