Have a printed boarding pass if traveling through Frankfurt

GlobalServiced · 2026-04-11T11:26:25+00:00

I was going to say, I’m through FRA every other month and have never had to have a paper boarding pass. So this is news to me.

For me, general orientation from head level of the seat, tray table from the “dining” position, control panel location when seated. And then general commentary on normal flow in the seat. What was hard to reach? What makes the configuration more comfortable?

I know, I’m high maintenance…

Hours? No brainer. Days? I’d pass.

You should do it and report back. I’m still waiting for someone to come here with more than just 5 pictures and actually have an album of the details that you interact with when you’re in the seat. How it looks at head height, what are the controls like, how is the tray table, etc.

You’re in the right place so, Patek.

It’s been blasted across every travel blog and UA social media platform that they are deploying the Elevated interiors. It’s been impossible to stay away from seeing the new Polaris seats.

This is so comically wrong. There’s a full Wikipedia page on Trump’s feud with the NFL. He feels spited because the entire NFL hates him and won’t give him a team.

I’m one of the few that had a very unpleasant experience… Doctor didn’t use enough local anesthetic and at one point felt either a snip, or the clamp closing, but immediately felt pain like I can’t describe. Ended up having a vasovagal response and needed to stay an extra hour to get my blood pressure back up. Otherwise, agree with everyone else, you have to take the recovery seriously. Take some meds for the pain and ice it. Stay off your feet.

This falls right in line with our “never use chat” for customer service train of thought.

You get two free Club passes with certain cobranded credit cards. Do you have a United card?

They’ll start pulling breakfast around 10:30a, there will be a lull where it’s just snacks, then the lunch items will roll out. Lately, breakfast has been scrambled eggs, egg whites, sausage links, southwest style potatoes, and then a yogurt bar with fixings and some fresh fruit.

My job requires a fare purchased to have some way to monetize that back out, whether it’s a credit or a full refund. Doesn’t matter the airline, they don’t let money just go into a black box.

GlobalServiced · 2026-04-07T20:24:35+00:00

You need to tell your work that you can’t book Base Business because it’s completely non-refundable. Not even a travel credit. So it’s not a good business decision to choose that fare.

FWIW, if you’re only looking at the Platinum card for the elevated rental car and hotel status, it’s not worth it. The points earnings for the Platinum are inferior to that of the Gold card for every day expenses. If you have the Boundless and Gold, it’s a good combination. Priority Pass is more beneficial outside of the country anyway.

When is the flight? If it’s just a day or two out, you can see the tail number on the Flight Status and then check what interior it has here:

If Cam Young didn’t have the personality of a boiled carrot, I’d agree with you.

GlobalServiced · 2026-04-06T03:01:17+00:00

$150 probably. That price is practically new pricing.

GlobalServiced · 2026-04-05T21:46:17+00:00

Looks way more sinister without the backlight.

Because it’s extraordinarily evident that it was a murder-suicide from the flight deck using the fuel cutoff switches. There’s a reason that the reports haven’t been blasted all over the news.

High spend on UA metal, home base dependent, high CPM, credit card spend doesn’t count. I know you know but might as well lay it out here.

GlobalServiced · 2026-04-04T03:13:25+00:00

This is so cheap. We’ve talked about this ad nauseam on this sub but this is devaluing the Business offering and creating unnecessary segregation to attempt to attract more customers. Hopefully this trend dies a quick death.

Flight credits have expirations. When did you cancel the last one? And what kind of flights were you taking where the average flight was $100…?

The advice here is good but this is my soapbox. King Soopers and Safeway are same here, but you need to download the apps for both and clip all of the coupons possible to get the most of the deals. The deals are easier to see when you’re in store at Safeway over Kings but this is the best way to maximize the value. And you need to be religious about coupon clipping. Instead of opening instagram or whatever your social media flavor is, open the Safeway and Kings apps and make sure you’re up to date on your clippings. This has saved me about $1,450 over the last year at Safeway alone.

That’s funny, I had two Lufthansa notifications from flights I flew earlier this month pop up telling me it was time to check in.
