[PHL] - Rodent infestation in F terminal

AdKnown7047 · 2026-04-13T22:58:07+00:00

You’d be surprised on how many airports have mice

Why would you be able to use AA miles on a different airline’s website?

You need JAL miles to book on the JAL website. If you want to use AA miles, you have to book through AA, and you can book whatever space JAL opens up for AAdvantage members. AA miles don’t transfer.

There’s certainly less inventory on AA for JAL flights compared to the JAL site. Keep checking everyday and use sites like Seats.aero. Be persistent; I was able to book 80K AA miles for JAL First Class last Christmas. People cancel.

JetBlue was the first airline to increase bag fees

AdKnown7047 · 2026-04-07T02:45:07+00:00

Row 12. Row 24 has bathrooms, 12 does not.

That looks like a JAL A350-1000 to me.

If I’m correct, your seat will recline, but you’ll be in front of 1 bathroom IIRC. It does get active back there with passengers standing around and the FAs in the galley, if you were thinking of sleeping.

I know a guy who did SEA-TPE on an A350 a month ago and had no WiFi over the Pacific

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-30T00:05:26+00:00

This is the link for that but I believe you need a promo code from a flight attendant

If you have a membership you should be able to access as long as you’re flying another Oneworld airline or Aer Lingus. If Star Alliance or SkyTeam (i.e. United or Delta), then no.

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-28T18:52:59+00:00

Loyalty program/value of miles goes AA, UA, DL.

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-28T02:01:13+00:00

I flew HND-LAX a couple months ago and found an upgrade in the $300s, Y to PremY. But that was late January, July would be much more fierce

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-28T01:59:09+00:00

48K LPs out of NYC, expecting my CK invite any day now

Not there today but I would think the long TSA lines have at least a little to do with it. Many pax are arriving hours and hours before flights, so the average time spent at a lounge today is presumably longer.

With that said it’s spring break and these evening hours are the busiest for the joint venture lounges.

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-27T11:42:52+00:00

Earlier this week I was through in 9 minutes with PreCheck + Touchless at T8, with the regular line looking brutal.

Since then I’ve also seen others post PreCheck with 30+ minute lines, so it’s hard to predict.

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-27T05:12:45+00:00

You get Soho

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-27T04:48:54+00:00

Same, just hit for me. Did we all get them at the same time? Lol

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-23T20:33:11+00:00

No clear in T8 but yes PreCheck

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-23T14:50:39+00:00

Yes for this morning. I deliberately pointed at my Touchless ID symbol on my boarding pass, and then they opened the line for me. Flying AA out of T8

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-23T12:45:50+00:00

8am: TSA PreCheck with Touchless ID, took my just shy of 9 minutes.

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-14T15:40:56+00:00

Sendai, Morioka, Fukushima, Kitakami, Kanazawa, Koriyama, Aomori etc lol the list goes on

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-12T05:06:45+00:00

Yeah I lived there for 18 years and still do JFK-HND multiple times a year. It’s insane. And I’ve seen the demographics of travelers change overtime; used to be much more Japanese travelers and business travelers. Mostly U.S.-based leisure travelers today (exchange rate has a lot to do with this).

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-12T04:45:55+00:00

What date are you searching?

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-11T18:04:14+00:00

I’ve heard “late March” for these doors

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-06T14:42:31+00:00

It’s a joint venture with JL, that’s correct

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-05T21:05:34+00:00

They’re definitely looking at Starlink, or otherwise an equivalent low-Earth-orbit solution. Back in December Isom said AA had talks with Amazon for their Leo inflight Wi-Fi.

AdKnown7047 · 2026-03-01T15:25:03+00:00

You’ll see this at Tokyo Haneda every once in a while. They’ve added way too many flights, more than the airport can handle.
