My better half tagged along with me to Cape Town last month, but their ticket was booked separately than mine. Was able to use a GUC and clear 3 out of 4 legs, the only one not able to clear at time of booking was AMS-CPT. Because they don't have status the agent wasn't able to select a Y seat for them, so they gave me the KLM record locator and an... Read More |

On a recent LGW flight in CE (both directions) I was informed by the crew on asking for a Coke Zero that “we don’t stock that any more, is Diet ok?”.
Is this really a permanent change and if so does it also affect LHR short-haul, long haul, LCY flights etc? Read More |

Today I booked seats in PE on NZ 283 for Mrs Zoovet and myself. I asked if R Class was available for the flight (in October 2020) to see if we could get guaranteed upgrades, and apparently none were available for the several months before this (the agent I spoke to looked back as far as April 2020). When she asked her supervisor they found that R c... Read More |

Booked BA First SFO -LHR and paid full price because it was cheap those dates and BA First has great mileage (100% base, 150% class of service, 200% bonus miles). Outbound no problem, return flight canceled due to BA pilot strike on 9/9/19. They move me to American LHR-DFW-SFO in Flagship first. At the time, didn't think about miles and just did it...

I am due to fly back from Brazil next month on an overnight flight and reserved seat 07K on a 788 so that I could have aisle access. However, I've just received an email from BA that says they have change my seat for operational reasons to 06K.
What could these reasons be? Is this because they need to seat for crew? Or perhaps they need it for s... Read More |

Before, I could get a seat assignment where there is a bassinet at the time of booking/ticket issuance. The condition was that you could be moved if there was a need to accommodate a baby, which is totally reasonable. I called Cathay the other day, and they said a new rule has been implemented and that all bassinet seats are not assignable until... Read More |

Hi all,
Will be going to Shenzhen (I have a foreign passport no HK/China with a HKID (not permanent)) this weekend to attempt to open a local bank account. I've done quite a bit of research on this and found that rules tightened significantly earlier this year and I'm afraid I might have missed the boat on this one.
I will come in on a 15-day L-v... Read More |

Interested in best practices commentary from MS friends on subject of traveling while "in possession" of large quantity of purchased GCs.
For sake of discussion, let's say $50-75k face value and you're traveling by air and rental car. Let's also say that, as of right now, all cards are in original packaging, with receipts and that no default PI... Read More |

I live around Savannah GA, which means I connect thru ATL on Delta everywhere I go. Every week is 4 segments, and I typically travel every other week, so each year I end up with around 110-120 segments, putting me well over Platinum status (which is 100 MQS), but many flights short of Diamond (which is 140 MQS). But I have very few MQMs since I'm... Read More |

I know this is a query about an AA flight from LHR, but I find the knowledge on the BA sub forum second to none, hence the post.
I'm flying with my wife on AA39 LHR-MIA tomorrow and it's been sold out for the best part of a week. I'm guessing it's well oversold. We've got a basic economy seating and I/we now have no status. We will be prime candid... Read More |
