A few of us ( [utag=816222]smallmj[/utag] [utag=883658]codfather[/utag] [utag=843627]RangerNS[/utag] ) have been talking and we decided it is about time to host a good, old-fashioned, maritime Do!
I will be turning this thread into a wiki and will be providing more information, but for now we are confirming the date (... Read More |

Just had an interesting boarding experience at CHS. There were new scanners installed where your BP stays face up, instead of facing down on the glass. Now that may not seem revolutionary, but at least two people in front of me during PREM boarding were asked if they were in first class after they put their phones under the scanner and it didn't be...

We flew TPE-YVR-YYZ as revenue passengers in J class. Our TPE-YVR flight was delayed due to aircraft issues so they had to rebook our YVR-YYZ segment, for which they put us in J, BUT on AC Rouge. To think that when I had booked my segments months before, I had made sure to avoid AC Rouge at all costs. I had asked the agents at the TPE counte... Read More |

On DCA-PHX and they just announced no WiFi or outlets on the LUS plane. Several people who didn’t know this ahead of time went crazy saying they have no movies or music or enough battery and the flight attendant was left saying “sorry, these old planes.”
Part of me thinks they should have prepared better but it is crazy how old this jet is.... Read More |

Agree or disagree?
At a GS-lite, it sure would be nice. And it would hearken back to the PMUA days of two waitlists: one for 1K/GS and one for the rest, so the history is there. I personally am pessimistic, but hopeful, that it will happen. Read More |

Delta employees are getting 2 months extra pay. That should put a few smiles on their faces. Why do I think this is one area where UA won’t copy Delta? Instead more bonuses for the brass, I’d guess. Read More |

In the Nashville Sheraton Grand and the JW Marriott in Panama, they are now charging for glasses of wine!
I have been a member for 35 years and travelled a lot with this hotel group. I have not seen this before this current trip.
It reminds me of what Cathay Pacific did to their first class lounge at Hong Kong airport. Cut costs and now its a... Read More |

I have been editing the PDF to remove my FF number when I submit receipts to the client for travel reimbursement. I asked Delta if there was an option to download without the number, but they confirmed there wasn't.
Does any have an easy way to remove the number? I'm at the point where I'm tempted to code an automated way of doing that chore. Read More |

I know not technically a BA related, but I'm sure many older BA FT members took up this insane offer in the early 90's - its an incredible fiasco with the US flights. Spend £100 and get 2 Return flights to NYC or Florida. The deal of the decade. Did anyone get one of these free flights? How many hoovers did you buy?
A clip from a BBC doc bel... Read More |

Like most of you, I've had my fair share of good and bad experiences on United. I'm a few thousand miles short of 3,000,000 so I've seen a lot, but I've never seen what I saw today. Quickly put, we flew this morning (1/20/20) from Edinburgh to Newark. We grabbed our bags (all carry on) and headed to terminal C for our connection to Boston. Once the... Read More |

I was in NY for a day at the beginning of November. This morning's emails included one from US CBP telling me I had ten days left before I would have to make sure I was out of the US (it's not a scam email).
Any ideas how to deal with this? The email comes from no-reply address, and CBP's Contact Us webpage pull up an invalid URL message. I've t... Read More |

I'm planning a trip to Australia in August likely flying London-Perth and returning Melbourne-London.
What is considered a good J fare for Australia? At the moment I can see returns for about 3k, using a combo of BA, Cathay and Qantas flights. Is that a good deal? Read More |

Feeling paranoid, but when I just booked my flight on BA website I had nowhere to add a middle name (which is on my passport).
I know I've booked flights on this site before but cannot recall anything about the middle name.
I tried searching threads but whenever I try to search this forum only I end up with the entire site still.

I recently submitted a claim for the delay and ultimate cancellation of a flight that resulted in a delayed arrival at my destination of 11 hours. I received a lacklustre reply from AC that focused on the delay of the inbound connecting flight I took which was irrelevant. I ended up being offered a 30% code as "goodwill".
This morning I was sur... Read More |

What a storm we had here in YYT this past Friday! Not a single commercial aircraft has landed at the airport since 1:30 AM Friday morning...
I am sure we have seen longer times without any flights before, but this really seems unprecedented!
We will definitely be seeing some big metal when the airport reopens (if it does)! Lol Read More |

Getting right to the point: I was eating breakfast in the lounge and a disgruntled customer was making a scene. I wasn't paying attention but he was talking loudly to the staff and a manager about his unpleasant stay. This seemed to be resolved to some degree and he left with a staff member in tow carrying a tray with his breakfast and a bottle of... Read More |

Flying in Y LHR-DXB last Thursday on BA107.
In the middle of the flight I got as a surprise from cabin crew a bottle of Champagne and desserts from Business, also a birthday card signed by the whole cabin and flight crew. Comes out that my lovely wife organised it by walking into the rear galley whilst I was asleep, but I still appreciate the ef... Read More |

Hi all, the F leg of my Europe-US itinerary has been canceled ~5 weeks out, and BA have rebooked me to a 20 minute LHR connection. Has anyone had luck being accommodated to another airline? I’d like to reach for the stars and see about being booked to AF La Premiere 😬. This is an award booking, if that matters. Thanks! Read More |

I'm currently booked on a Virgin Atlantic flight across the bond, but due to a schedule change, I have the ability to change to a flight time that gives my wife and I several more hours to spend in Europe. But if I make the change I'll be on Delta metal, instead of Virgin.
It's my wife's first time to Europe, and she rarely flies up front, so I... Read More |

AA has taken supply and demand as well as dynamic award pricing to a whole new level for Super Bowl weekend. 150,000 miles for a coach seat MCI-MIA round trip. Cash prices start at $865. And they added a bunch of flights, too. The early morning is the only regularly scheduled flight IIRC.
Similar situation from west coast, but some quirky result... Read More |

I was looking on the AA site for Business Class Saaver awards to Europe this summer. Flying from the US to Europe the 3rd week of May, many tickets were 300K ONE WAY! And I didn't see Saaver tickets on any route. Will space open up later this year once AA has sold revenue seats and decided how many award seats they want to make available? Overall,... Read More |
