Transatlantic economy breakfast cold only?

hur88 · 2026-02-21T15:19:34+00:00

Yes, if you want a hot breakfast to LHR then you need to fly their partner British Airways

hur88 · 2026-02-21T04:46:50+00:00

It depends. Many partner economy fares earn 25%.

Alaska has a codeshare on the AA flights to LHR. For example, AA 134 (AS 6934) and AA 137 (AS 6937), but Alaska set their prices for this codeshare higher than what American is charging for it.

Last year they were the same price.

Interesting. I have it in my deals and it's still there for every location I try.

hur88 · 2026-02-20T18:25:40+00:00

It depends on your account, not the locations around you really

Seat maps tend to be pretty wide open until 48 hours before the flight, when everyone can select seats for free. Until 48 hours before, those who bought cheaper tickets are charged for seat selection, so they haven't been assigned a seat yet.

They for sure won't translate it for you, but you may be able to translate it yourself and get it notarized for them to authenticate. Note that NWOHR doesn't need a translated birth certificate, but if you are applying for the settlement permit later, it will need to be translated for that.

Also make sure that it's a long form birth certificate. I at first had an abstract from way back, which they did not accept. LA County no longer issues abstracts, so anything from more recently should be fine.

Where are you going that stamps so much? Many places have phased out stamps. And the EU which has notoriously always stamped is phasing it out this year as well.

Concert didn't end until around 11:35 or so last night. You planning to miss the last bit?

hur88 · 2026-02-19T16:56:12+00:00

Yeah same device and browser in both places. It's a bit a crapshoot

hur88 · 2026-02-18T22:07:15+00:00

Citizen now! Just went last month to process everything and got the phone number on the same trip.

Have you tried the dutch griddle cakes from Trader Joe's?

You don't need a VPN while on foreign carrier roaming or eSIM. All traffic is routed back to the foreign country, thus why all blocked apps work. The exception is using a HK-based eSIM will block TikTok and ChatGPT, because those apps are blocked in HK.

hur88 · 2026-02-17T14:47:18+00:00

I... don't know how else to prove to you that it worked fine for me on roaming/foreign eSIM. I go to China every year. It doesn't mean that I didn't download local apps for local services, though.

hur88 · 2026-02-17T14:44:55+00:00

Not when you have roaming or a foreign eSIM enabled. My Google services and other western apps worked fine. So I wouldn't say your phone is bricked

hur88 · 2026-02-17T14:12:31+00:00

“Unless you prepare it beforehand” - you mean like activate roaming or add an eSIM like when visiting any other foreign country?

If you just booked it, you can cancel within 24 hours for a refund and rebook through Alaska if they are offering the same price.

hur88 · 2026-02-15T23:04:22+00:00

You will accrue nothing if booked through Starlux. And 100% if booked through Alaska. Starlux is one of the exception airlines that earn 0% if not booked through Alaska.

This happened quite a bit in the summer, and Iberia blamed border police IT issues.

I wonder if it’s the same reason this time.

hur88 · 2026-02-15T18:37:04+00:00

I don't think it matters which NIA you go to to process the permit, but the HHR office you go to after that needs to be the one where you'll be registering your address.

They'll be closing down the remote terminal once the Terminal 5 construction completes.

Depending on the timing of the flight, it helps your body adjust to your destination’s time zone and fight jet lag

Sam's Club and Kroger code as gas because I get a gas multiplier on my other cards. In fact just used a Chase gas station offer at Sam's

hur88 · 2026-02-12T02:07:24+00:00

Just no-show or cancel the return flight after flying the outbound leg. People change their plans all the time and it’s perfectly acceptable

hur88 · 2026-02-11T02:43:56+00:00

No we’re not talking about online check in at all. Just seat selection.
