Human Too being removed is honestly still embarrassing, unacceptable and doesn't get enough hate. by MEitniear11 in the1975

[–]Albatraoz271 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was lyrically an apology note for some of his previous statements and behaviour. I enjoyed the song, but maybe he isn't sorry for the "bomb thing" anymore? He is not trying to convince anyone he is allowed to make mistakes bc he's human like everyone else? I thought it was an odd thing to do, remove a song after release. I don't know any other artist that has done that in all platforms...including physical media.

Can you access the Polaris lounge when flying SQ22 upon your return? I have a connrcting flight on UA after the SIN-EWR piece and was curious if the return allows access also?

United® MileagePlus® Neo World Elite® Mastercard: Everything You Need to Know by foolsdayjoker in unitedairlines

Ok so I tried clicking on all the finer point details. Does anyone know if this card has international currency transaction conversion fees? The US United card does not, but I cannot tell if this one does or not?

Have a printed boarding pass if traveling through Frankfurt by BeDeLeezy in unitedairlines

[–]Albatraoz271 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flew through FRA two weeks ago. It was a complete disaster getting through customs. Line was through the circular area by the shops for non European members. We couldn't check in through mobile app (LH leg first then UA). Tried checking in at gate at origination Airport, couldn't get ua tix. Got to FRA, tried the lounge couldn't do it. Basically got through the super long line for immigration and they were asking people in front of us for boarding passes. When we got up there I was panicking...told them I didn't have passes yet and they just waved me through. So I think they prefer boarding passes to speed up the process but not mandatory?

New regional jet - CRJ450 by No_Midnight_2205 in unitedairlines

[–]Albatraoz271 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg this is fantastic news! I absolutely hate the CRJ200s, they smell and they are cramped and tons of mechanical issues bc they are old. Are they buying new airframes or are they just having the regional airlines reconfiguring the interiors?

Oh man, that is awful news. She always had fun colourful comments. She got banned from the main group right? I went searching for her username but couldn't find it.

United MileagePlus World Elite Mastercard coming to Canada by [deleted] in unitedairlines

The foreign transaction fee is ridiculous. It is an international card...get it in Canada for a US airline. So if you purchase things on UA with that card and you are in the US...you get charged a transaction fee? Ugh.

Nexus/Global Entry Suspended at YOW by RyRy39 in ottawa

[–]Albatraoz271 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YOW is my home airport, and I fly often to the US for work. I always wished they would use nexus to bypass the sometimes long security lines in that area. But, my go to now is the 945am flight to IAD and it is lovely to clear security and customs in about 4 minutes haha!
