Hi
Please merge this if there is a more appropriate thread - but I didn't see anything focused on this issue.
Given the changes in the 2020 plan I'm likely moving my spend off of my Chase UA card (I have the MP Select card). Assuming you are dissatisfied with the changes in the FF program what is everyone doing.
My previous go to card w... Read More |

Recently I had a fare adjustment from a ticket exchange and AA told me they would issue a voucher for $69.
A week later I received it in the mail (!). Paper voucher with a whole book of conditions stapled to it -- looks like a gift from the 90s.
The voucher states "cannot be used on aa.com". OK...
I tried to call the AA EXP service line to boo... Read More |

At Al Mourjan right now.
Sorry for a quick rant on a topic that even I have discussed elsewhere already.
But I really don’t get it how on one hand you can build the world’s best J class and at the same time offer a WiFi experience in your premium J lounge that currently has the speed of a 1998 dial up connection????

Hi all, title says it all really. Attached is a menu from BOAC's Monarch Service (hence tenuous link to BAEC!) that I think dates from the mid-late 1950s (as 707s took over the New York run from Comet 4s in 1960). It looks like a menu for a New York-London service (images on cover, supper and breakfast options). Interesting to note the limited opti... Read More |

I'm not sure where else to ask this; it's happening on a DL flight.
I just booked ATL-JFK-TXL-JFK-ATL on a low Biz fare ($2285) in May, ticketed by KLM, all on DL metal. As I was booking, the KLM website put up notice in red by the last leg,"First class seats not available on this flight." I just figured it must be an RJ without a First section.... Read More |

Well...I am still working through the MASSIVE backlog on the TR covering the end of my summer trip. I am hoping to make some headway on that. I thought it might be best to ease back into the TR waters with something manageable and perhaps the momentum would get me moving on the weeks of backlog for the other report.
As y... Read More |

In December, I'm flying from LHR to LAS on Delta, thru SLC. I have a completely separate booking on American to fly from LAS to PHX. My connection time in LAS is only 1 hour. That obviously won't be enough time for me to collect my checked bag from Delta in LAS and recheck at the American check-in counter for my flight to PHX. My understanding is t... Read More |

Hi All,
I just got approved for the 80k SW Biz card (5k spend in 3 months) and will apply for the Plus in a couple of weeks (hoping the in-flight 50k offer is still available when I fly on 11/1).
Anyway, I emailed Chase and found out my statement closing date is the 3rd of every month. If we disregard the risks of fraud, spending too much before t... Read More |

I was prowling around for a way to get the 20K point bonus on my gold Amex for booking $1000 with KL or AF. I stumbled across this. It's good into June, but most dates are between $2500 and $2700 (on GoogleFlights). For some reason this particular week was cheaper. It's also available on Amex Travel for as low as $2098 if you have a Plat card a... Read More |

How naive I was, thinking that flights were flights, they cost a certain amount of money, and were merely a way of getting from your home to your holiday destination.Much better to spend the money on the holiday itself than waste thousands sitting in the same tube that everyone else was and getting there at the same time...
I thought this for... Read More |

The SEA to KIX flight is ending at the end of October (I think 10/22) - any idea why? The purser on my most recent flight told me that SEA to KIX is seasonal but I scoured all the announcements and there was no mention that it would be seasonal. I flew it a few times. A couple weeks ago we took off for SEA with 5 or 6 empty seats in Delta One. Read More |
