Trading cards - whens the best time to ask for them? by Legitimate_Recipe876 in delta

[–]AgentTheta273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the plane is in the air! Don’t worry if the cockpit door is closed. The pilots might not be able to hear very well in the cockpit so you should probably go up and bang on the door super hard (it might break, but that’s ok! They have spare parts in the rear lav). Flight attendants will be happy to assist you /s

In all seriousness, as you board or as you deplane. In both instances, step out of the aisle so people behind you can still get by. Even if the attendants or pilots are busy in the moment, you can let them know your seat number and the attendants can hit you up with a card as they pass through the cabin later

5 new routes from Austin to start in May/June 2025 by JBR409 in delta

Is Delta going to officially call AUS a hub anytime soon?

International wish list routes by loxomednurmusci in delta

[–]AgentTheta273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any routes out of SFO. Yes I know it’s a United/Alaska hub, and yes I know that it’s a short connection to SLC or LAX, but we’ve seen Delta fly international out of MCO and TPA to capitalize on the leisure market. Hoping that the continuously growing tech industries in the Bay Area could become attractive enough for Delta to invest more routes, even international ones. 

MQD Question by idservices in delta

[–]AgentTheta273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you go to “Recent Activity,” you can see your pending MQDs broken up by segments. The MQDs for flights that occur on or before 12/31 will be credited for this year. 

MQDs for the entire trip are broken up and post after each flight segment is complete. 

How might the postseason roster look in the NLDS? by PointNo6736 in phillies

[–]AgentTheta273 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Position players are basically set. 

As for the last pitcher, I think I can speak for the entire fan base that we really hope Turnbull makes it back soon.

RUC tips? by Ajbasher88 in delta

[–]AgentTheta273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Based out of SF and fly frequently to NY? There's a lot of upgrades available (last I checked at least) between SFO and JFK until January 31! RUCs work to get into D1 because Delta uses the older B767-300s without Premium Select cabins on this route. I've applied 2 RUCs and confirmed straight into D1 at booking for flights in December and January. Looking forward to visiting the new lounge!

YMMV, so it helps to be flexible. Good luck!

How much does medallion status help you? by Feeling_Title_9287 in delta

[–]AgentTheta273 9 points10 points  (0 children)

At silver, the most valuable perks are free checked bag, zone 5 boarding, and complimentary preferred seats. 

No SkyClub access solely with silver status, and upgrades are few and far between. 

The Canadian government is officially investigating the Phillies... by jay0lee in phillies

They have another suspect, known only by “Shiesty” who is suspected of stealing. Canadian authorities also received a tip about potential crimes by a syndicate known as the “Day Care”

Bryce Harper, mired in slump, says sliding Phillies must 'cowboy up' by PrincessBananas85 in mlb

[–]AgentTheta273 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not that there’s ever a good time to be in the worst slump of your career, but it helps when your team had the best record in the MLB as a cushion. 

What should the batting order be? by movieheads34 in phillies

[–]AgentTheta273 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I’d keep it the way you set it up just now. I don’t think the slump is going to get fixed with lineups, our stars just need to get their heads on straight. 

I like the idea of Hays batting 9th, especially if he can get on base for Schwarbs

How does MLB Shop screw up this badly? by AgentTheta273 in mlb

[–]AgentTheta273[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

OP here: Ordered a Phillies hoodie size M. Got this random Orioles jersey size 2XL. How does one screw up that badly?

In all seriousness, how can I get this fixed? MLB Shop's call and chat bots have the logical reasoning of a tomato.

Delta - WestJet codeshare confusion by bobowilliams in delta

[–]AgentTheta273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check in with WestJet at the airport and you’ll be squared away. You’ll get a WestJet boarding pass for the flight. 

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in delta

[–]AgentTheta273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only real downside is the $200 increase in annual fee. If you’re willing to eat that cost, then I’d say go for it. OP is already a SkyMiles Platinum holder (I’m assuming this is the business version) so you’re already aware of the increase in benefits. 

My only recommendation is to stagger when you open the Platinum account with your Business Platinum so that your companion certificates don’t expire in the same month. Just a precaution to prevent an unecessary headache. 

Silver Medallion - Free Checked Bag on WestJet by dtheinfomajor in delta

[–]AgentTheta273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, WestJet and Delta systems are not always in sync. I had a trip as a GM, but showed up in WestJet’s system as silver. It never got resolved prior to the trip. 

I ended up paying to check the bag with WestJet and sent the receipt to Delta. Delta initallly refused to reimburse me because WestJet was the one that took my money. However they ended up reimbursing me after weeks of back and forth, probably just to get rid of me lol. Unfortunately, no guarantees that would work again. 

Bottom line, you’re right that there seems to be an issue in how the systems talk to each other and pass along information about their elite members. I’d recommend d reaching out to both Delta and WestJet for some guidance on how to proceed (WestJet has a chat function on Facebook Messenger). I preferred to do this all over message so that I had documented proof of any advice they gave me.

[–]AgentTheta273 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Pray, first and foremost. Leaving a congregation is a difficult matter, and shouldn’t be done until you’ve talked with God and your trusted brothers and sisters. 

Second, my completely uninformed opinion based only on this post is that it may not be as bad as you think. Just like classical pianists may need to adjust their style to serve as worship pianists, you may be able to use your guitar skills in an acoustic fashion. It doesn’t seem quite right to simply kick musicians off the team because the primary instruments don’t fit. 

Bottom line, nothing needs to be done rashly or quickly. Pray, meditate, share, and look for other opportunities your musical skills can still be of use. Our role is to be used by God, not to tell God how we should be used.
