I doubt they have Racism.
The manager at Al Maha Desert Resort send an email to me and he/she said the resort will cancel my confirmed reservation due to the system error(over booking). I can pretty sure that is lie. I did my reservation on January 2019, why they did not realized they were over booking on the January? The other doubt is why they... Read More |

I recently stayed at a Residence Inn in a very touristy part of California. It was a good visit that started off on a weird note because a list of today's elite arrivals was prominently framed for the guest to see at each front desk station:

I've been flying for many years now and fortunately, I haven't found myself in this situation before, but this week on a flight, a DYKWIA type passenger was seated next to me. Normally, the DYKWIA types don't bother me, but this one was quite unique. He put on his eye mask and attempted to get comfortable taking both armrests. No biggie right, we'v... Read More |

Boarded my flight to BLL earlier this week towards the end of the boarding process and found someone already in my seat - a coveted Y exit row aisle.
"Excuse me you are in my seat" I said politely.
"Oh all seats are the same aren't they?" he replied. "Just take mine, I now have all my luggage above and my things in the seat back so that will just... Read More |

Currently on UA817 AUS-EWR in F. As boarding was in progress, I overheard the FA telling the gate agent to not upgrade people because there weren’t enough meals. I heard something along the lines of, “There are only 12 and not 14 so don’t upgrade the last person.” The gate agent agreed and we went out with I believe 19/20 in F.
Now, if I’m #1 o... Read More |

Not being a big person, the airplane seats (even after shrinkage) aren't so bad. But now, to not be a jerk, I have a seat reclined in front of me but cannot recline my seat (when I did the man asked me to not, given his legs already don't have enough space).
I guess this is why flying up front is better. You don't have to debate whether to be ni... Read More |

Greetings!
I was on a flight from DTW to SAN last week in Comfort+ and ordered Woodford Reserve. FA told me that they were "out of Woodford" during the first beverage service about 30 minutes after wheels up. Delta customer service emailed me and said that Woodford "may not be available to Comfort+". Anyone had this experience before? Is DL now... Read More |

Hi All,
I thought I would do a quick write up of my recent trip to KBP – Kiev, Ukraine.
I wont focus too much on the service, as its typical euro traveler, but I though it may be useful for some on here as it’s a route that earns 80tp each way in CE. (its also a non EU destination if you want a Brexit holiday…. but lets not st... Read More |

CDG 2A, I check in at the BA Business Class counter with two bags, having a short connection in LHR to American (T5 to T3), 110 minutes in the best of cases, fully knowing that my BA flight has Expertflyer statistics of being late 74% of the time.
I notice that the agent affixes to each of my 2 bags a "LONG Transit Connection at LHR" tag and I ask... Read More |

Hi there,
Although I'm an avid reader of this forum, a BA flight last week from KIN to LGW has prompted my first post! At the desk they said it was a full flight, and upon boarding I was told i'd been given an upgrade to PE (I'm a gold exec member), then getting to my new seat a chap was already in it, and he'd been upgraded too. Went to find the... Read More |

I'm a Delta Platinum checked in for an international flight. Delta doesn't offer complementary upgrades to Delta One on international flights, but there are two people on the Delta One upgrade list.
I'm curious how they got on the list? I'm assuming that must both have used Global Upgrade certs which haven't yet cleared, but wanted to check if I... Read More |

[left]Underwhelmed with first to YVR yesterday. The lamp on the side of the chair wouldn’t switch off, so was pretty hard to get any sleep. The CSD said they couldn’t do anything about it, other than switch seats with someone on staff travel (not ideal as closer to galley and do you really want to switch after 3.5 hours).
Also - have they start... Read More |
