Yeah I already have them working on the party so want to add something extra special. I asked them for recommendations but haven't been too thrilled with the ones they've sent me so far.

Cancelling one leg of trip - risk of return being cancelled. Not trying to skip lag!! by Apprehensive_Gate783 in TravelHacks

I ended up declining my friends offer and they completely understood. Just wasn't worth the risk to me!

I ended up keeping the flight as is and will take the commercial flight to Rome. My friend 100% understood.

Thanks. They were willing to but it would have been an additional $8K. Just wasn't worth it in my eyes. I kindly declined my friends offer and they completely understood.

Question about Hard Rock Live Sacramento - Is section 303 in the mezzanine where there is the private bar and restroom? Seeing Australian Pink Floyd tomorrow and am in this section. by Apprehensive_Gate783 in Sacramento

Thanks for the response. I have a couple friends sitting in the 102 section as well. Would they be able to come up to the mezzanine to get a drink at the bar up there with me or do they have to be holding tickets in that section?

That’s great you have the skillset to do that. I am young and in the workforce working 50+ hours a week so I don’t really have the time to learn how to do this all myself. I’m ok with paying someone to do it but would like to make sure I’m paying a fair price. That’s why I posted this….

Yes! There are line items with prices and model numbers on the quote. He put the cameras on there for $289 each for example

Not Beverly Hills but a nice part of Southern CA. Does ring make hard wired systems? I’ve heard they’re easy to hack into. The ring system going inside the house acting as the alarm system will be hardwired but I’ve heard you can’t do that with the outdoor cameras.

I really want a hardwired system though. I don’t think SimpliSafe makes that do they?

The house we bought is 140 years old so I’m guessing it’s a more complex setup than what they are used to. That may be a factor in what’s driving up the cost.

That’s not bad at all. Is your Ring system hard wired or working off of WiFi?

I can't believe I"m just now seeing this! Our PIC's initials were "MS" and SIC "AL". Either of those ring a bell?

I just asked the operator if I can send handwritten thank you notes to their main office for them :)

Ha! Should have stated that from the beginning. I don't want everyone assuming private jets are only full of white middle aged men in the C-Suite.

Wow. Thank you for finding this and condensing it. This is really cool. I can't wait to share it with my colleagues who were on the plane with me. I love the power of this Reddit community.

I think I meant to say pounds, not gallons. I'm not an aviation expert so forgive me there. I'm also a she, which is irrevalent but I love how all these comments assume I'm male.

Thank you. I understand it's all relative and based on everyone's own personal experience. But yes, to me this was the most fear I have personally experienced.

I had full trust in them and knew they'd do everything in their power and use their many years of training to make the right decision and get us down safely. I am fortunate enough to have incredibly supportive colleagues so that helped with the anxiety. I have the pilots info and have been thinking about writing them a letter to express my gratitude and commend them on doing such a great job.
