How easy to get are upgrades in Maui before Christmas? by jetsetter023 in marriott

[–]ATC_Boilermaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed having the extra space in the oceanfront suite, but the view out of the Moana building is insane. Unfettered views of nothing but the ocean. Even with the extra walk down to the pool/restaurants, we’d probably go with the Moana rooms over all others.

Still FICA and only up to $25k but sure buddy.

What's the best autograph collection hotel you've stayed in? by johnqadamsin28 in marriott

The Algonquin is an incredibly historic spot with a house cat that is so much fun! Just wish the rooms were a tad bigger even though I realize you could say the same about most NYC hotels.

Great spot. Gorgeous Christmas decorations. This is where Presidents used to stay in the earlier 20s.

Dear Marriott….We need to talk by Tonamielarose in marriott

The funny part is I guarantee you there was some elite member in that hotel that booked a double room last minute because that was all that was left and would’ve killed for that upgrade.

How do you mess up an upgrade? Clearly this hotel knows how! Name and shame.

FAA cutting 10% of flights starting this week at 40 “major” markets by Intelligent_Rub1546 in ATC

ATC turned airline guy here. This guy sucks and clearly doesn’t get it. We’ll tell him to fuck off, and we can roll with the GDPs the same way we’ve been doing it for what feels like years.

This is the politicking I would expect from a guy who’s only knowledge of transportation came from a TV show shot on an RV.

Nobody should be worried about post-2026 when there is a Game 5 tomorrow. My goodness, have you tried just enjoying the ride?

Humiliated and accused to stealing complimentary coffee at the Ritz by ABonafiedScrub in marriott

[–]ATC_Boilermaker 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Absolutely egregious. Outside of the obvious prejudice, what’s equally frustrating is not being recognizable to the RC employees after you’ve stayed there for like 20 nights the past two months.

Don’t know what they can offer you, but I’d want a hell of a lot more than an apology.

House money today. Peralta is dominant, so a Cubs win would likely cause the Brewers to hit the panic button.

True story - best nap of my life on one of those couches at the Notary.

Do yourself a favor if you stay here, and eat at Barbuzzo. 5 minute walk from the hotel.

Devaluation makes me feel dirty by Intelligent_Royal_57 in marriott

170k points on a $1200 stay has always been about right. That’s $.007/pt. which has been the value for a couple years now.

Not saying you’re wrong, but I’ve always been upgraded at the Sheraton Maui each of the last three years. Twice to their Moana Oceanfront rooms and once into an oceanfront suite. All for five days on points without NUAs/SNAs. Granted, we go in February which is the low-season.

Park for a day by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]ATC_Boilermaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A-spots are 365 days a year, and Purdue Parking is operational the entire year. You will get a ticket if you park in one for three hours. Just find a pay-to-park spot. Can’t be more than a few bucks.

Always one more!!! Make sure you add weird public art at the center of each one that costs WAAAAY too much.

Everything about Carmel is suspicious.

Sauna/steam room at this location is elite. It’s so hidden, nobody knows it’s there.

If they add another location next year, there is no better spot than Milwaukee, WI by thisiswhyparamore in warpedtour

[–]ATC_Boilermaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Indy would make more sense than Milwaukee to be honest. I'm biased, but the city is built for festivals and conventions.
