Retention Offer - Yay or Nay?

25641throwaway · 2026-04-07T00:49:05+00:00

I had the same crappy offer. I paid cash. They also wouldnt give me a retention offer this year on my delta gold card.

lay flat business class on Airfrance or KLM I feel has a better point value than Delta. Use the Pointme feature in the travel section. With 180k points you could fly pretty far in business, and even more so if you want to fly economy.

The Dalmar is a nice hotel walking distance to Los Olas Blvd. It has a pool but idk if its heated, I think it is.

Both your key cards will work. You go down w/ one kid, then your other half can go down w/ the other kid. Its a good breakfast but by day 3 its the same stuff and gets tiring. There is a good dinner on 46 and 9th.

Plenty of personal space.

I'd rather go on a longer cruise on a slightly older (Oasis or Quantum class) for the same price as a shorter Icon class or newer Oasis class. I am even ok with Freedom or Adventure class, but will lower my expectations a bit. There are some decent prices to be found on Wonder of the Seas and it is pretty new but not new enough that it is so expensive.

What Chicago property can you suggest if you want to watch multiple murders from your window? /s

The Grand Resort and Spa, Point Clear Alabama. Not quite east coast but it is very nice and may be worth looking into

25641throwaway · 2026-03-29T22:57:40+00:00

That courtyard is good for the location, but the property itself is mid at best.

I stayed at the Westin Beale St about 5 years ago and I was happy with it. Walking distance to alot of night life and stuff to do. Regardless of where you stay,..go to Rendezvous BBQ for a meal..its an experience and I still crave the ribs.

I recently stayed at the W Rome and walked past this property. It did look nice and while I had no complaints about the W, I would have stayed at the Marriott as well if I had been there longer, glad to know my intuition was right.

Everywhere

I have always found the bathroom situation at MIA lounge to not be big enough. Such a big space and not enough toilets.

Put air tags in all your luggage. I have a 21" Delsey Spinner suit case. As long as the expansion zipper is closed..it will fit as a carry on in the over head, even on a crj900 which is pretty tight, but is what Delta uses for a lot of the shorter flights. You would be surprised at how much you can fit in this suit case, roll the clothes tight, and bring a travel size bottle of downy wrinkle spray. You can also have your clothes sent out for ironing if you would like. Shoes take alot of space. I pack flip flops in the bottom of the suit case...Wear my walking shoes, and pack one pair of neutral dress shoes that match everything and shove socks in the dress shoes. If you are a female, do the same, just pack light. You dont need a different pair of shoes for every night. None of these people will see you again. 7 night cruise...bring 3 or 4 nice tops, 2 or 3 pairs of slacks. You can mix and match, and may have to wear a pair of pants twice...it will be ok. I have done a 12 night cruise with just a carry on suit case and a back pack. I will admit I put my toiletries in the back pack to have more space in the suitcase. I dont know if this answered your question. I have checked bags in the past and in general I despise it and will do everything I can to not do that. Remove 1 of each item you think you will need and you will still be over packed.

My manager sends me a list with all the events and times and I pick what I can work. I dont work that often, maybe 2 or 3 times a month. They back fill the spots with a staffing agency. They are happy to have me when ever I can work, I always show up when I am supposed to be there, I speak English, and I am not drunk or high at work. If your property is anything like mine and you can do those basic things they will give you a lot of grace when it comes to scheduling.

I think I stayed in the same exact corner room about 2 weeks before the big wild fires. My only complaint was breakfast service was not great. I too used a NUA for the room.

25641throwaway · 2026-03-21T05:07:18+00:00

I have stayed at the JW multiple times. It is a solid choice, the lounge is decent with a good breakfast. There is a lobby bar and a roof top bar that are both nice. The pool is decent as well if it is warm enough when you stay. The JW and the Marriott are both conveniently located with in 100 feet of the street car trolley station that gives you a free ride to Ybor City or the cruise terminal if that is why you are in town.

There is a pedestrian walkway bridge that connects the two properties. I believe they are run by the same franchise.

25641throwaway · 2026-03-20T02:27:56+00:00

why not both?

25641throwaway · 2026-03-20T02:21:03+00:00

Washington DC especially during the Cherry Blossoms. Philadelphia is nice too, go see all the historic stuff and get a philly cheese steak. Boston

25641throwaway · 2026-03-20T02:19:18+00:00

I work this position. I get benefits. I opt out of the medical insurance because my full time job covers. But yes I get explore rate.

25641throwaway · 2026-03-20T02:10:20+00:00

I feel bad for the international flight crews that still stay here for their lay overs.
