I had a remarkable experience yesterday. I called down to have the valet service pull my rental from the garage, but five minutes later they called back to check the ticket number. “Are you sure?”, they said; “I’m looking right at it”, I said. Alarm bells should have been ringing but I was getting my head in the game for a Q4 close meeting (I se... Read More |

Here's an interesting thing that happened to me today. I'm planning a post-cancer trip with my husband and son, and booked our tickets today. I regularly use delta.com, so I consider myself a pretty savvy user, but had difficulty today booking. During the last step, it kept erroring out, but I finally got it booked.
Anyway, my return home starts... Read More |

I've never flown domestically within Canada and not at all with Air Canada.
I will need a checke... Read More |

I know that there have been a few threads about what to drink if one is teetotal and flying on BA but I didn’t want to resurrect them as I think I am coming from a slightly different angle here.
I am teetotal and have been for a number of years now; it would be great if when the CC come round and serve drinks that they didn’t always assume that... Read More |

I understand that the first row is blocked out usually for BA gold card holders, I know its a hard to answer question but I was wondering from your personal experience how busy this flight and i... Read More |

The Points Guy is reporting that American Airlines will add Truly Hard Seltzer to it's drink menu starting with select flights starting January 1 and rolling out to all flights by February 1.
I don't know about all of you, but I wish they would offer better wine in coach.

Looks like AA stepped up against RAMs (Random Acts of Marketing) on those lovely inflight CC Pitches. Some rules that stand out are:
[list]
[*]Only between 8AM and 9PM
[*]Read off the script only - no pressured tactics like we only have x number of apps left
[*]Presentation must be no more than one minute
[/list]
Sounds like complaints and complian... Read More |

I have been working in Qatar for some time and recently changed my BAEC "registered address" from Canada (I am a Canadian) to Qatar - primarily so I could get my BAEC cards sooner. Before this BAEC would send my card to Canada, and sometimes I would not get it for 6 months because my brother was "slow" in forwarding some mail - or it got lost durin... Read More |

Quick question--We are flying from SFO to HKG and onward to SIN. This is all ticketed through CX. There is only a 50 minute connection time. It appears the flights typically arrive early. Is it a long distance to walk from the arrival gates from international flights to the area around gate 39? I realize we need to go through security... Read More |

Mrs dwcatty and I are flying ATL-MBJ this winter, and I was just looking at our seat assignments (18 D & E on a 737 900ER) and saw that upgrades to first were available for $139. It's a 3 hour flight from 9 am to noon. I'm trying to decide if I want to go for it.
On the plus side its first, we'd get off the plane faster to get to customs, and... Read More |

We've just returned from our first Amex 2for1 trip, which also gave us our first experience of First. GLA-LHR-ATL return - It was fab!
So we're home barely 48 hours and I overheard MrZ sa... Read More |

With my Avios expiring at the end of the year in both BA EC and IB+ I thought I'd renew the former by transferring from the latter. Both accounts have been opened for well over 90 days.
On both BA and IB websites, I see the option to transfer from BA to IB, but not in the other direction. I called the IB service center and was told that option i... Read More |
