On a related note, I just flew CX F for the first time and during boarding a guy on the other side of the cabin got mad at the flight attendant because the seat has a locker instead of an overhead bin

Flying out (economy, vacation, short haul) and my wife was supposed to go as well but had to bail due to illness. Went to the counter and politely informed them that she wouldn't be making it. Nice agent thanked me and said: "Let me check you in." I thought I was, but here I am in exit row window. I the land of the VBITs, the man with exit row window is king.

My rental car actually has a piece of itself in the trunk. Also the preferred counter is closed so I'm schlepping it in the normal line which is about a dozen people deep.

They tried to give me an Impala Limited. There's no way I'm sitting in that penalty box all week so I played car roulette with the app until it decided to give me something bearable (Fusion Hybrid). I finally got through traffic and got to the office and now I have to pack up my equipment, drive to Brooklyn during rush hour and set up for class that starts tomorrow morning because my sales people are assholes and promise stupid things. FML.

Can someone who has a Miles and More balance check LH F award availability FRA->NYC on Wednesday Nov. 22 and Thursday Nov. 23 for me? I'd like to try the Lufthansa FCT on my way back for Thanksgiving but I don't want to have to transfer in SPG points to do so if the award bucket is empty.\ e: I suppose I'd take MUC->JFK as a secondary option. 2e: I would even take FRA->ORD on Wednesday Nov. 22 pig slut lisa fucked around with this message at 04:39 on Jun 26, 2017 |

Thanksgiving week is tough. All dates are showing 0 availability on Expertflyer. The Lufthansa Award search shows partner award inventory. Availability to Miles & More members may be greater.

Laughing at some of the poo poo in this article.quote:Roscoe: It bums me out to see people dressed down at the airport. No matter how much you fly, if you’re about to board a plane, it’s a special occasion. You’re about to represent the place you’re coming from to the place you’re going to. I think that merits a sport coat.

I can't search it but maybe there's someone in here who can? e: Never mind, I mistakenly thought Lufthansa didn't apply fuel surcharges on Miles and More bookings. pig slut lisa fucked around with this message at 16:50 on Jun 26, 2017 |

If I'm the mood for a breasteraunt it's either Tilted Kilt, Buffalo Wild Wings or Twin Peaks. And Twin Peaks actually had good food. And never eat at the strip club.

Oblivious I went to one with my wife and 10 year old daughter once. Once. A few years ago the owner of Tilted Kilts did one of those Undercover Boss shows. He was shocked that putting scantily clad young women in an establishment that served alcohol could result in harassment.

I'm not traveling for business, but I am hauling my wife and 4 kids out of MCI to CLT tomorrow. Due to massive incompetence, my children's record locator is now different than mine, and they don't get free checked bags due to my credit card status. They're sending me 100 bucks in vouchers so whatever, but I'm concerned about checking in and having them move the seats we were already assigned together. I could check us in online, separately, but I'll still have to check some bags when we get there. Is there any advantage or disadvantage to checking in online? I'm assuming that since our trip summaries still show the seats we selected, all together, that we shouldn't have any issues.

Checking in online might make it harder for someone at the airport to swap those seats around for another passenger? Probably won't be issues either way to be honest.
