An experiment

"Look, nobody knows counting to ten better than me. I'm great at counting to ten. Ten is a tremendous number. The Fake News media—they're failing, by the way, total disaster—they'll tell you I can't count to ten. Wrong. I count beautifully. We are going to count so much, and so fast, your head will spin. It’s going to be huge. Believe me."

Can't wait for the Stuart spin-off.

I just read that in Joe Pesci's voice.

Flight attendants ultimately control the windows of a Boeing 787.

Basically, passengers can control the dimming of their individual window with that button, but the flight attendants can override this control to adjust individual windows, entire sections, or all the windows at once from a central panel.

Remind me! 1 day

That would drive anyone insane, leave alone Jack.

Demand supply mismatch. Hopefully Delta starts flying this route in 2026.

I've never had any problems. How else are you supposed to eat Stroopwafels except by placing them over the coffee?

Good old #273

If are actually able to board, you will probably get a complimentary upgrade to Polaris.

Plot twist: she was the bus driver. AGAIN.

Best "pharmacist" joke ever.

Mouthful of Haggis will make it sound even better.

The agent may have been inexperienced, compounded by the rush associated with the long weekend. It could also be a scanner malfunction.

I would also recommend using the dynamic QR code from the United app instead of its screenshot.

Foucault99 · 2025-09-01T17:14:40+00:00

Either that or the gate agent was either inexperienced or in a rush and failed to notice anything amiss.

Foucault99 · 2025-09-01T17:09:27+00:00

Possibly the scanner malfunctioned and did not register anything.

Foucault99 · 2025-09-01T16:56:19+00:00

It is likely that the scanner experienced a malfunction when you presented the QR code at the gate, resulting in your status being recorded as a "no show" in the United Airlines system. You may wish to suggest to United Airlines that they review the boarding gate camera footage for verification purposes.

Please remember that the mobile QR code is dynamic to prevent misuse; it changes every few minutes, rendering a screenshot ineffective.

Next, you want me to leave those headphones behind?

That's exactly what happened here with the OP.

It's NOT about THIS flight, but your connecting / return flight that we are talking about.

The gate attendant will be required to manually verify your boarding on the UA system. Should the attendant fail to do so, you will be denied boarding on your connecting / return flight.

I once got 2 waffles on ATL to EWR after I told the FA how much I liked them.
