I went with my three daughters to check in to a flight this morning. It turns out that one daughter was under her own record, and the other three of us were on another. I knew this beforehand, so I asked a phone agent to join the records. I was assured that they were joined. When I went to the kiosk to check in at the airport, I was able to get boa... Read More |

I'm considering using my American Airlines miles from SFO to get to Rome Oct. 8, 2019, Tuesday, 2 pax interested in SFO to LHR and then to a Rome airport. The plane is British Airways Airbus Flight 284, we could do 286, but prefer the earlier arrival. It's an Airbus A380-800 (388). From traveling on a few Airbuses in different parts of the world, m...

[left]Is it ok to ask for another drink after the meal service has finished in CW? If so do I just go the galley to ask for this? I’m thinking I might want another glass of something whilst watching a movie or is this frowned upon? I’m on the upper deck

One of the less comfortable feelings on longer flights is the dehydration. I tend to drink plenty (of water... post-meal anyway!) from onboard & drinks brought with me, but it never feels great. Curious what other travellers do to combat dehydration.
Also, does anyone know when the ice typically runs out? (Notice the 2nd meal services never have... Read More |

I cant seem to find a thread in this. But lately AA seems to have gone INSANE with First Class pricing.
For example I'm seeing MIA-Tpa at over $900 when the plane has only four fc seats. The coach fare is typically $120.
I flew from MIA to Chicago... AA wanted $1,000+ in FC united $366.
I need to fly MIA to SAT... im seeing $1,500 to $2050 in... Read More |

When I fly regular Y as MVPG, I almost always have my status recognized and am thanked for my loyalty.
In first or premium, I never have.
Anyone else had the same experience? I only obtained gold last year and have about 10 data points on each side, so this is totally anecdotal. And it’s not like I care (e.g., omg recognize me), I don’t — I’... Read More |

Delta just changed the flight schedule again on me for my Disney World Trip in Nov. Instead of 1h 50m layover in ATL I have 1h 20m. If it were just me, or just me and my wife I wouldn't be concerned about it. But I'm going to have a 7 year old and a 3 year old with a car seat. Do I have any chance at this? Should I call DL to see what they will reb... Read More |

I haven't flown AA in many years, but today one of my relatives was connecting from Europe to CMH via JFK. BA got them in on time, but AA 3716 to CMH was cancelled. I didn't get a coherent (third hand) explanation on what the reason for this cancellation was, and unlike the United site, which I'm more familiar with, AA.com only notes "Cancelled".... Read More |

How hard is it to change the frequent flyer associated with an AA booking to another one world carrier like BA/IB Avios? Can't seem to change that online by logging into my AA account. I'm hoping this is something I can do at the airport during checkin?
Because of a lot of European travel I've decided that I'd rather be a frequent flyer in BA/IB... Read More |

I was on a shorthaul flight today where the safety briefing was very slow ... and spotted the CSM reading it off an iPad
Then the service was one of the slowest in Business (mostly empty) that I've ever seen
And the CSM even struggled to operate the cabin lights

I know BA may have taken them out on the A321 and new aircraft don’t have them fitted but last week was the first time in ages that I’ve seen the new safety video and the moving maps. Not so long ago, they were deployed on every sector that had them, now more often than not we have to liste... Read More |

After boarding the YVR to ORD, he was downgraded to Y to sit in a non reclining exit row and given a $500 voucher. Isn’t it strange that the... Read More |
