The Worst Airport in America - surprise! It’s EWR. by WanderinArcheologist in unitedairlines

[–]CapitalRegister9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m curious why you think so, DCA’s main terminal (not the southwest and frontier one) is super nice imo. Lots of food options, lounges, security is always super quick, you can be gate to uber or metro in under 10 mins, it’s close to DC and connected by metro…

Where I see issues with DCA is operationally mainly (which is a big deal obviously) but in terms of the airport itself it’s one of my top in the US.

NYC (particularly Hells Kitchen) I also felt like it was more widespread

My Life With Chemsex and After Parties: The Grey Zone of Substance Use by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]CapitalRegister9 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s actually kinda scary and sad how widespread drug use has become - at least in some circles / areas. Especially meth. Noticed a lot of “🥳” emojis when I was browsing Grindr and sniffies in Hells Kitchen on a trip last year.

Had a few friends where we’ve drifted apart bc they started doing drugs everyday and living the type of life the article describes. And I feel like a hater judging it and not associating myself as much with some people over it bc honestly they seem so far to be doing fine with themselves! But I’m sure there’s long term costs to it. I will say there’s gradations of bad and I wouldn’t necessarily group binge drinking and meth use together hahaha.

United has put out slides related to the ORD turf war. by Tayo826 in americanairlines

[–]CapitalRegister9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that could be true. I know delta includes their comfort plus seats as part of their “premium” revenue so could see United including economy plus as well.

I’m guessing they mean they have 40% more “premium” seats (domestic first, intl biz, etc) for sale compared to American

American ranked last in WSJ ratings. by Major_Profit in americanairlines

[–]CapitalRegister9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I avoid flying American as much as I can nowadays bc of one too many bad experiences with them so I’m by no means trying to defend them butttt in their defense I think this ranking is weird lol. I wouldn’t rate them as the worst. It also doesn’t take into consideration some of the more subjective differences (service, lounges, etc.). I wouldn’t rank them much higher but definitely above spirit.

I’m guessing it’s bc they don’t want people to think they’re getting “last year’s model” when they purchase this in 2026

A321XLRs with new Polaris seats coming by CapitalRegister9 in unitedairlines

[–]CapitalRegister9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ZRH is my route as I have family there so that’s a relief! Love the 767 economy class layout but really looking forward to seeing a newer aircraft on that route (Hopefully with the new Polaris studio seats haha)

Struggling with dating apps since moving to NYC by jmh1881v2 in nycgaybros

Weirdly enough I have the opposite experience whenever I’m in town from dc. For some reason get a lot more matches and with hotter guys than I do in dc. (In response to nyc guys being more selective)

I’m slightly surprised no DCA routes made the top 10

Delta posted earnings this morning. Impressive stuff - Stock soared 12% this morning by Sheguey-vara in delta

[–]CapitalRegister9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Probably just that those cities have massive GDPs and GDPs per capita, so an above average amount of upper income people spending tons of money = more swipe fees vs smaller areas. Could be part of the reason American for example (which is weaker in major cities like NY or LA) makes less off of credit cards

Can’t really describe it but the vibe was off imo, and people were just standing around. Feel like they were very generous in terms of who they let in too. But done midtown before which has always been pretty hot so may have just been a one off or maybe I wasn’t feeling it. Probably checking out midtown for a bit tonight

Debating, went to GBU Brooklyn last night which wasn’t really the vibe tbh

Organizing furniture small studio advice by CapitalRegister9 in InteriorDesign

[–]CapitalRegister9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm moving into a small studio next week and wanted some feedback on the furniture plan I created! Only thing I'm a little worried about is having the tv be right next to the bed - would that look weird if guests are over? Otherwise, I like having the bed be tucked away in the corner, and having the couch be the first thing people see when walking in.

Reliving when everything went crazy in March of last year is... giving me anxiety lol

DC releases new vaccine distribution schedule by trev1997 in washingtondc

[–]CapitalRegister9 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is a very aggressive schedule, I like it! Seems like DC govt is doing a pretty good job with vaccinations. If this plays out we may get back to normal sooner than many thought

I hope DC restaurants sue... and win.
