Is there a reason why the BA website is jacking up the cash portion of an avios ticket? I usually pay 4000 avios +12.54 USD for DUB-LHR, but today the cash portion has increased to $31. It also shows 8000 avios + $1 as default price, rather than the usual 4000. Did I miss a recent devaluation or could it be a similar incorrect price issue with Aer... Read More

Per the weekly OAG thread over on airliners.net First dates I can find are in September. Props to AS for sensing weakness (UA, F9) and pouncing. As I think many of us would attest, the resumption of PDX-DEN is long overdue and was an obvious hole in the network. Read More

I have eCredit that can't be redeemed online, I'm not sure why but apparently not uncommon. I've been in touch with Delta twitter support for the last few hours, and they cannot reproduce the booking that I want to make at the fare showing for me. I have sent them a link and I can reproduce myself using the link on another device. Delta are only ab... Read More

Having been made redundant and currently serving notice, I've been doing a few techie things to ensure I don't get bored... anybody else doing the same? 1. Deployed a Linux server - I had a Raspberry Pi 3 that was acting as a bit of a network server. This worked well, but I was always a bit suspicious that something so cheap my be liable to...

I find the information on the various government websites very contradictory and confusing.

This is likely situationally useful, but someone may need a bunch of MQMs on DL or status points in a DL partner program (VS perhaps if they stay around, it earns 400% of milage flown in RDM). DL is rolling over everyone's MQMs to next year as well, so that could be an opportunity. Delta seems to have a non-refundable fare in the J fare class fo... Read More

Just wondering if anyone here know what Hilton's plans are for Hong Kong? AFAIK, there are only two Hilton properties, the HGI and Conrad. IMO, that's inadequate for a city like Hong Kong. Is Hilton going to let the other chains like Marriott have HK to itself? Read More

Apologies for the odd title, but I tried searching for an issue like this but was have a hard time describing it. I have a roundtrip award on hold from PHL-ORD-HND and HND-ORD-PHL, booked in F. The outbound flight gave me the option of booking J for the PHL-ORD leg (the other flight is on JAL). But the return flight only gave me the option of Pr... Read More

Looking at maybe booking an optimistic trip to the Maldives for late October and wanting to fly QR J RT. For each flight I look up on expert flyer, I see all middle seats in the J cabin are blocked (or a few booked). Is this normal or is this presumably a COVID-19 current measure? Read More
