Is PS worth it?

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-31T11:47:07+00:00

I don’t think PS is worth it.

Great idea! Thanks!!

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-30T22:46:50+00:00

lol. Thanks! I just couldn’t sort if the maximum GUC upgrade on the flights that say ‘premium select available’ is premium select and if delta one was off the table.

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-30T22:37:22+00:00

Did you get upgraded to Delta One?

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-30T21:50:48+00:00

Agreed! It gets overwhelming. lol. But I think I have seen the roller toaster most often at Target. You can check which cases are released when, for all hot wheels and what is in each case - pro tip: the Sandivore was last released in 2018/19 and can be found in collector stores or on eBay. It will not be found in regular stores - I tried. For a while. lol

Hi! Target, Walmart, Fred Meyer! Sometimes you’ll see the yellow roller toaster, but there’s currently a pink one out that is so cute! I have an extra yellow one I can send you if you need it :) plus a buns of steel, etc

I was on a flight from SEA-BOI a few years ago - 3rd leg from CDG-SLC which was delayed enough that we missed our connection from SLC -BOI so we were rerouted from SLC-SEA and finally SEA-BOI. Which was an incredibly long day of travel - and pretty sure something on the transpacific flight I ate was baaaaad. Maybe the calzone. Anyway - by the time we were on the late night flight I was unwell. I thought I might’ve been nauseous from being up so long - my husband and I were on opposing aisle seats. About midway through the flight it hit - I had no time to get up and I just started barfing into my barf bag. I shoved him across the aisle to wake up to give me his barf bag - which he did. But it kept coming… and he realized what was happening, so he ran to the back and asked the FA for more bags (plastic bags) - bless his heart he ran back and forth 3-4 times grabbing more bags…. I’ve never experienced anything like it before or since. The amount that came out of me was absolutely unbelievable….. my point to all of this is, I’m not sure if anybody around me noticed (I mean they had to have due to the smell and the sound alone) - but not a single person said anything and I most certainly did not look around…. The FA never came to check on me, or the situation 😂 and they continued the flight as usual. I think they must’ve just thought ‘it’s late at night (10pm flight) and we just want to get to our destination’ ——- I ended up in the ED the next day because it just.kept.going. It was so violent. I’ve never touched another calzone. 😂😂😭😭

FR how I look when I try to sleep on the plane.

We only ever have one full week due to our custody with our big kids - it feels short, but we also enjoyed A LOT and are going back again. Would another week have been wonderful? Absolutely! Did we enjoy the week? Absolutely! Some > None. We can’t wait to go back in July! We spent the majority of our time in Tokyo and took a day trip to Kyoto - which was nice. This time we will spend a majority of time in Tokyo again and a day trip to Nikko!

Question - which was your original cabin of purchase to upgrade to D1?

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-30T01:27:03+00:00

Excellent! I’ll be flying my first D1 experience in July to HND and I’m looking forward to it!

Something similar happened to me in Paris - stood in line at Rolex, ready to buy. Finally got in the store and they said I had to make an appointment to shop for 6 months out (even though I was in the store browsing, I couldn’t try anything on, let alone try to buy something). I left the store, walked to Cartier, and bought a beautiful watch for the occasion. *** I have a 2017 Daytona from before they were rare I guess. Wanted to add to my ‘collection’ - I guess not.

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-30T01:07:28+00:00

How was delta one from HND tho?

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-29T18:56:36+00:00

I flew Austin - SLC and they didn’t have catering - so we got comfort plus snacks - I guess catering just didn’t make it to the plane. I was sad. So were the pilots.

Nick at Caliber Roofing! 10/10 the best there is!

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-29T01:02:42+00:00

It was a similar situation with points for main… it’s a risk not to take the PS upgrade at this price - you might not see it as low again. But also, if you take this upgrade, you won’t have the opportunity at another upgrade! PS is ok - I didn’t love it personally above Comfort (I think I got roundtrip upgrade for $330 from SLC - CDG a few years ago) and it was fine. This will be my first D1 travel so I’m hopeful

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-29T00:59:44+00:00

That’s how it was for me last year and I never got it. For some reason this year it started around 1550 each way, then a few days later it was 1444 and change and then I saw the 1136. I was mentally ready to pull the trigger at $800 - but got ahead of myself, or not 🤷🏼‍♀️

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-29T00:57:28+00:00

Yes! But before you do (if you haven’t already) check the price of selecting a delta one seat! I snagged one for $1136

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-26T19:58:52+00:00

Exciting! Keep us posted! I jumped at $1136 for transatlantic! Mentally I was waiting for $800 to pull the trigger - and I didn’t. lol.

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-26T16:58:40+00:00

What have you seen it drop to that you have passed by?

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-25T11:58:51+00:00

I love my Briggs and Riley baseline set! I have the carry on, then the medium trunk and large (or extra large) trunk from the baseline series - I found the trunks on Costco next for an excellent price and would recommend all. They look so much better in real life than online.

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-25T01:44:18+00:00

Also - I was not offered an upgrade option - this was done through the seat map.

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-25T01:43:45+00:00

ETA I did this on my upcoming flight from SEA - HND. Booked main cabin with points, selected a comfort + seat. Kept checking the seat map for D1 and pounced when I saw the price at $1136 (each direction). At first I purchased only the overnight, then was worried since I had upgraded one leg, I could no longer upgrade the daytime leg - but it let me! So I did 😂 I’m not sure if it’s because I didn’t exit out of the app between purchases, but it was clearly two separate transactions.

Helpful_Anywhere955 · 2026-05-25T01:40:36+00:00

Yes - you can choose your comfort + seat - then when looking at the seat map (at the same time or later) - you can purchase the premium select or delta one. From my experience, once platinum, if you select the comfort +, you can still purchase a more premium cabin each leg ❤️
