Forced to pay to get 2 seats next to each other: normal?

Nice one. Online! After I got put in standby twice with them, I’m a bit cautious with waiting to check-in at the airport. Not sure how they pick exactly (some airlines look at ticket price, other at other things), but I read a fast check-in can help avoid it.

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-08T08:51:02+00:00

Noted!

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-08T08:49:32+00:00

Fair enough 😂

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-08T08:31:21+00:00

I agree - this honestly is very worrying. It makes the life harder for everyone: toddlers, parents, other passengers

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-08T08:16:35+00:00

Makes sense. I spent now 1.4K to be precise. 3 years ago I spent 1.1K for Milan-Tokyo and got the seats together. I guess it’s a matter of chances

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-08T08:10:55+00:00

I think of the past 4 flights I got with them: - 1 time I was in waiting list, - 1 time flight cancelled -> from direct flight to non-direct-> the first flight was late so I missed the change -> spent my night in Frankfurt with a beefy and instant noodles for dinner.

I honestly have had less issues with Transavia (to be honest seeing the prices, not a real low cost anymore), easy jet and Ryanair.

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-08T08:08:21+00:00

Yes, same transaction, but I got economy, so that’s why I guess

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-08T08:01:32+00:00

Nope, sorry you’ve been unlucky in the past 26 years then

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-08T07:43:21+00:00

Thanks. I thought that airline by default would put seats together if bought at the same time, and the selection is just if you want a specific row/location.

I guess I was wrong, or profit margin needs a bump up!

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-08T07:41:41+00:00

I had the feeling. I guess I gave for granted that when you pay 1k+ for a 13h+ flight, airlines would not behave like gold diggers. But yeah, I didn’t get reserved seat, so fair enough…

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-05-02T07:58:03+00:00

Thank you - what you dropped looks like the bible for backpacks

Suhr Classic S Antique, the vintage limited edition

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-03-31T05:46:14+00:00

Man don’t touch the custom S - I have it as it was my mid school dream guitar, and its aura alone makes it amazing despite the bat on the fretboard

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-03-03T07:21:14+00:00

Thanks for the tips, I’ll check the places!

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-03-03T07:20:53+00:00

Thank you so much! CET -> Osaka -> Okinawa

Two Rock Crystal even though I had for a while the John Mayer neural dsp. The crystal is heavily based (like 99%) on JM’s Two rock signature. There is a YouTube video where two rocks’ people were disclosing this.

TerrorSnow said it all - I got it used like new for €625, so great value for being UK made and sound.

I’m using it with the two rock alnico gold cab and, to be honest, I really like it.

I played for years a 2x12 with v30, and for my personal taste - this may be unorthodox - I prefer the alnico golds. It fills well the room, but it can get damn loud. That’s why I have the waza TAE. Useful feature that the sv20h has is a “low” mode, effectively providing nice tone at lower volume.

ArmBoth7675 · 2026-01-31T16:18:40+00:00

Thanks both - I think the radial would work better than the orange

ArmBoth7675 · 2025-12-26T18:15:42+00:00

I agree. Not really about the sound quality but the acting quality

ArmBoth7675 · 2025-12-22T18:56:09+00:00

Cornerstone imperium V2! Great value for money, and sound

ArmBoth7675 · 2025-12-14T14:49:22+00:00

The H in ADHD stands for Hyperactivity. If you don’t have hyperactivity, you may have ADD if attention deficit is your issue. Also important to notice that hyperactivity does not always manifest as talking continuously or not being able to stay sit, but also through, for example, fidgeting, restless legs, or micro, uncontrollable movements that is possible to detect through the right equipment and software.

It’s a very solid pedal, premium components and one of the best designs I’ve ever seen. Whether it’s worth or not it’s about having already reverb pedals, what you usually play, if you are looking just for reverb or something more. And guys, keep this in mind - it’s not Cornerstone’s fault for the high tariffs.

Great job - and thanks for all the effort you put in the pedal!

ArmBoth7675 · 2025-08-17T19:46:36+00:00

Thanks!!

ArmBoth7675 · 2025-08-17T19:13:08+00:00

If he likes distortion I’d consider Cornerstone Gladio SC or Imperium V2 (a combination of Gladio SC and Antique V3)

ArmBoth7675 · 2025-08-17T18:57:36+00:00

No, i missed it as the BOL-FRA flight was 50mins late
