Hi all -
I haven't seen a recent thread on this, but I apologise if it is old hat and been beaten to death.
I am considering taking a role with an IAG subsidiary that offers "unlimited standby and premium standby fares for you and your nominees on the full BA network and numerous other partner airlines", and "Discounts on British Airways flig... Read More |

Is this possible? It seems like DL is trying to force me to fly their preferred partners whenever possible and I can't figure out how to get CI to show up. Read More |

My 787 first class flight just got swapped out to 747 (real bummer... was looking forward to my very first 787 flight). We have a party of 3, and the first class seats in various reviews look very inconvenient for a party of 3, esp because row 1 is already taken.
However, my flight seems to be slightly different layout that what I have seen in t... Read More |

I boarded a flight from YYZ-IAH yesterday as a connection to LIB on United. After a couple hours on the tarmac, we deplaned and the flight was cancelled which made it impossible to get my connection. My only option was to reschedule the flights for the following day at the same times (i.e. a full 24 hour delay).
As I understand the new Canadia... Read More |

OK - so this is just a straight-up complaint, for context, that's what I'm doing here.
I have taken the YVR - YYZ red-eye 3 times in the last month, in J, and each time the SD or FA comes around and asks if you want to be woken up for breakfast. I say yes, then they mark it down on the sheet, then they ask if I also want X or Y and I tell the... Read More |

Hi All,
Looking for a regular traveler on this route who might be able to help with some lounge advice? I am flying on BA160 in F and was just wondering if the Cathay Pacific lounge is the best option? There appears to be six lounges....I am up for a lounge crawl if it's worth it. Our flight isn't until 01:55am so plenty of time.
Thanks, Read More |

Hi flyers, trying to find an itinerary for 2 pax from EWR - ANC that a GGU can be applied to. This flight usually comes up as (EWR-SEA-ANC)
EWR-SEA leg is easy to find. SEA-ANC however only shows the morning flights as upgrade-able. (6:05, 7;05). So when searching for the entire itinerary nothing shows up.
Is this just not possible to do with o... Read More |

I don't understand how AMEX gets away with treating the customer like dirt.
Had AMEX Biz Plat 2/2016 - 12/2017, downgraded to green. Then I had Green 12/2017 - 02/2019, upgraded to Biz Platinum w/ 50k bonus offer. The annual fee for the Biz Platinum came up on 11/2019, so I downgraded back to Green.
When I downgraded to the green because the fee w... Read More |

Hello All,
Bit of a rant for me on this one. I have always had issues with the Orlando airport so I am not that surprised. Yesterday was among the most bizarre however. Obviously not being a prime location for Alaska is evident there. I remember getting to a flight once a few months back 3 hours early wanting to check in before finding out t... Read More |

I guess this isn't strictly an Executive Club query, but I relevant and hopefully useful to others. It is only applicable to executive club members by virtue of a being a T5 connection conundrum.
I arrived from Boston in CW (arriving in C gates), and connecting to an Edinburgh flight on CE (A gates). Roughly 1.5 hour transfer time.

Hello,
I'm booked to fly into and out of Edinburgh Dec 12-15, so I have roughly 2.5 days before heading to London. I know there is plenty to see in the city, but I wouldn't mind doing a road trip and maybe spending one night somewhere else if it's worth it. Is there enough to see/do in and around Glasgow to warrant staying a night there, or shou... Read More |

Friend is on an A380 BA56 JNB-LHR.
landing gear won’t go up so they will be circling around Joburg shedding fuel for 3-4 hours until they land and try to fix it.
Been in the air for 2 hours already.
They plan to keep everyone on board and fly after it’s fixed.
Could well end up being 17-20 hours on that plane if not more! Read More |

I am a huge cinephile and lover of the Academy Awards. I'm currently booking a trip that will unfortunately overlap with the annual telecast. This fact is KILLING ME! However, one of my travel options involves a flight on a Boeing 777-200LR, which seems to be one of the newer planes in Delta's arsenal. I wonder: is there any chance that the in-flig... Read More |
