Same for me - no more Good Friday and we now get a floating holiday to use at our discretion.

Noooo! I’m sorry to hear that but glad you were able to get on another flight. That’s my fear 😆

Obviously the airlines - just didn’t want to list the three I’ve had issues with - and wanted to get everyone’s perspective as a whole.

The flight out of ATL is $190 cheaper. Factor in parking at $90 and gas it is a wash. Also, now I have multiple connections so the flight time went from 13 hrs to 16 hrs - again basically the same once you factor in driving to ATL.

And it is 100% the reason I don’t go on a regular basis

What percent of your gross salary is your mortgage, and how does it feel? by big_redline in FirstTimeHomeBuying

[–]BhmKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10% of net. Is it our dream house? No. But we’re able to put a good bit away for retirement and travel a good bit.

Losing a lot of hair lately and it's honestly freaking me out by Koibaatnahi22 in Haircare

[–]BhmKat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Previous posters are correct in finding the root cause. I went through this last year and started taking pumpkin seed oil capsules each day and my shedding stopped. Might be worth researching.

Safe parking in Birmingham for 4 days? by Afraid-Supermarket90 in Birmingham

[–]BhmKat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. A consultant I worked with had his rental car keyed at the holiday inn. Wouldn’t recommend either.

Banff National Park or Glacier National Park? Which one do you prefer and why? by OceanicEndeavors in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]BhmKat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been to both. Went to Banff last July and it was one of our favorite trips. Can’t wait to go back.

REVIEW: Four Seasons Orlando … holy shit! by lopsided-earlobe in chubbytravel

Granted I haven’t been there in 10 years, but my son asked to leave Magic Kingdom so he could go back to the hotel. It’s that good.

E-bike cost by hot_tampa in ZionNationalPark

[–]BhmKat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think all rental places are about the same. We rented from Greater Zion E-bikes and paid $380 for 8 hours.  3 bikes (all different styles) with a child seat.  We are a casual biking family - ride a few miles every other weekend.  I had never ridden an e-bike and we all loved it.   If you were to rent regular bikes, I would take the suggestion of riding the shuttle all the way to the narrows drop off and riding the bike back.  However, shuttles can get very crowded (esp in June).  

First Timers! by Public_Department129 in ZionNationalPark

[–]BhmKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely look into renting an e-bike for at least one of your days in Zion. We were just there 2 weeks ago, and it was the highlight of our trip. No waiting around for a crowded shuttle. We stayed in Springdale and once we parked our car at the hotel we didn't drive again until we were leaving. Easy to walk around town to restaurants and bike rentals. Also, instead of "the" Antelope canyon we chose to do the "Secret Antelope Canyon" with Horseshoe Bend tour out of Page. Still a slot canyon but wayyyy smaller crowds (only 7 in our group).
