Tomorrow, the wife and i are travelling to New York on BA0173 in J. Booked 2 months ago, and ESTA submitted beginning of December.
During check-in for the BA flights, I noticed it would not allow me to print off wife's boarding pass. BA also advised that our travel documents would need to be checked at t... Read More |

Late last week had a PIT-IAH-DEN return in Z, and arrived at IAH early enough to catch the 7:XX flight rather than the booked 10:XX one to DEN
Flight was J0 booked 20/20 but App showed only 19 checked in at about T-40.
Asked agent if I could standby for FC since there was a decent chance that a seat would open up due to a no-show. Both GAs insist... Read More |

for one of the flights from miami-guayaquil, the business class seats were not lie-flat, even though its about a 4 and a half hour flight.
AA 933 is the flight we took in july, and it was not lie flat, but a few years ago we took AA 927, which arrives into GYE a little later, but I believe they were lie flat. Any reason as to the equipment diff... Read More |

I'm at 74,880 miles, and after today I'll be platinum for next year. The funny thing is due to a lot of last minute travel I'm over $15k MQD which is diamond. I wasn't planning on it, but I'm wondering if there are any options short of a crazy mileage run that would make up the difference in MQMs. I started to look at the Delta Amex cards, but t...

Recently, my flight from RDU to BOS was delayed. I got notification of this delay less than an hour before the flight, and after checking in at the airport, the GA informed me that is was a weather delay and the flight would probably cause a forced misconnect at BWI (the flight did end up misconnecting by an hour). The problem: all of the forward f... Read More |

I recently had fantastic service on a flight coming back from America and rightly gave my Golden Ticket to one of the crew members.
We were chatting and they remembered my name and eventually messaged me via LinkedIn to say thank you, which of course I didn't mind at all.
But something they said in the email shocked me, which was that BA give... Read More |

Now that I need to find three redemption seats at a time, I may have to give up on finding CW seats on both legs and resort to WT/WT+ for one leg of our trip.
On a night flight, my 2yr old son is bound to want to sleep across the seats so he can have his own 'lie-flat bed'. But the armrests in WT+ don't seem to come up, so the natural conclusion... Read More |

I was 1K last year and Platinum (MM) this year. I had RPUs expire at the end of last year after being unable to use them. This year, I've had my two RPUs applied to upcoming flights for most of the year (sometimes close-in, sometimes a few months out) in hopes of securing an upgrade, any upgrade. While I think one was hub-to-hub, the others have al... Read More |

Can someone give me the reason why they cancelled today's flight (12/17) BA214 from BOS-LHR? I also noticed BA215 from LHR-BOS was cancelled so I assume BA214 was cancelled because there is no equipment. Was this due to a mechanical issue?
Thank you! Read More |

This morning at the entrance to the KLM priority security area at Schiphol (foot of the escalator) I showed my boarding pass on my phone to the man at the podium and he asked me which level of Flying Blue I had. As my boarding... Read More |

There are numerous stories of people getting kicked off of planes for no valid reason.
This is may be the most convincing one found on YouTube. I know there were 2 sides to every story and when not hearing the one from the airlines, I don't know, but it seems like this guy's neighboring passengers are all supporting him. You combine this with repo... Read More |
