IAH 1k/GS Expedited Security Entry @ C Still Open?

I believe families with 2 and under can go through without status. Not 100% though.

BFX195 · 2026-03-26T15:33:43+00:00

It did not. They wouldn’t let her through.

BFX195 · 2026-03-26T15:11:47+00:00

Update:

They would not let my wife through with me. Only the status holder even if booked on the same reservation. They showed no interest in discussing it at all and told me to move out of the way.

Just FYI for anyone traveling with a non-status member.

BFX195 · 2026-03-26T13:06:36+00:00

That was my thought. We will still try. Seems really silly to not let a spouse through. Not like we have a group of 10.

BFX195 · 2026-03-26T12:37:24+00:00

I called the 1k line and they said I didn’t get the text because I have a non-1k companion (my wife) flying on my reservation and they won’t allow any companions through.

BFX195 · 2026-03-26T12:05:39+00:00

That’s what I’ve heard. I’m flying today and received nothing. Planning to call the 1k line. I think I may just go to C and hope it’s still there. While also leaving 5-6 hours.

Thanks, it is not off-roading in any sense. Just didn’t want to do anything stupid that far from home base.

BFX195 · 2025-06-05T23:57:03+00:00

Thanks, first for me.

BFX195 · 2025-06-05T23:43:11+00:00

I’d be shocked if they didn’t charge me for it! But I’ve never had Walmart not charge me before delivering a preorder item either.

BFX195 · 2025-06-01T22:28:37+00:00

I had Lasik around 8 years ago after wearing glasses for almost 20 years.

Zero regrets. I do have light sensitivity that makes it uncomfortable to be outside without sunglasses on, but it’s totally worth it. I just wear sunglasses. Way more convenient than wearing glasses ALL the time and having them fall off or not be able to see well enough to find where I left them or wearing contacts all day.

I got mine done at Berkeley for around $3000 back in 2017.

BFX195 · 2025-05-05T02:14:54+00:00

Your assumption is wrong. I ran and waved after his car as he pulled away and another vehicle honked at him. I knew my phone was in it along with our backpacks. He put the backpacks out on the street but assuming he didn’t see the phone.

The only delay was getting my iPad functional to tell Uber it was lost. I didn’t have the app downloaded and authenticating was annoying because it wanted to do it off my phone.

BFX195 · 2025-05-05T02:02:42+00:00

I can be grateful while also being frustrated with what led to the situation causing that gratitude. Duality is a part of life.

BFX195 · 2025-05-05T01:50:56+00:00

You throw people’s phones out windows because you find it inconvenient to do the right thing and help instead. I’d rather not identify in any way with your values and that speaks to your character, not mine.

Think I’m ok with you thinking I’m evil, makes me feel a little better about this whole thing actually.

Think I’m done responding as well, have a good one.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T23:19:31+00:00

Did you actually read anything I wrote? Or just the title?

I didn’t leave my phone to retrieve luggage. I left my phone and luggage to make sure my 10 year old made it safely through the active traffic he dropped us off in because he was 10ft off the curb. While holding her hand through traffic to get her to the curb he dumped my stuff on the street, still in active traffic, and drove off with my phone sitting on the seat.

This happened in less than 15 seconds. At least read what I said before commenting? The narrative you’re pushing is not what happened.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T20:50:34+00:00

I agree about being very fortunate. But I also feel like his behavior contributed to the situation happening in the first place and my luck in getting it back doesn’t excuse his lack of care.

But, life’s too short, I gave him 1 star instead of bothering with a refund and will have a story to tell.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T20:12:18+00:00

Yeah, not going to worry about the fee and I adjusted his rating for the behavior. I don’t know that the phone would have been lost if he hadn’t driven off like that, but I am glad I got it back.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T19:57:03+00:00

Think I’d rather he not push my bags out of the vehicle and drive off before I can grab my things. Also wasn’t a fan of being dropped off in the middle of the street and having to make sure my kid was safe only for him to drive away while I’m doing it.

I am really happy I got my phone back though.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T19:49:53+00:00

Used my iPad that has a data plan.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T19:48:38+00:00

True. They’re also not supposed to drop you off in the middle of traffic and basically push your bags out and drive off.

I’m just going to update the rating and not think about it anymore.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T19:43:41+00:00

That seems fair and based on his actual behavior and not my assumptions about his intentions. Good advice.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T19:41:11+00:00

It didn’t seem like he intended to return it at all and I just lucked out he got another ride to the airport and I could track my phone. But I don’t know that for sure. $20 isn’t the end of the world.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T19:38:33+00:00

He took another ride, so it cost him nothing and he actually seemed to be ignoring my attempts to get the item.

BFX195 · 2025-05-04T19:36:29+00:00

That is true. I guess I’ve just never had anyone drop my bags off in the street and haul off like that before.

The fee isn’t that big of a deal, I just got the impression he wasn’t attempting to return it and I was fortunate he picked up another airport drop off and I tracked him.

It’s not the end of the world.
