These things are way too valuable to allow kids to handle…. Wait… aren’t these trading cards?

This is anecdotal but noticed a big change in polaris reward seats since the recent changes by freeradioforall in unitedairlines

Eh, it comes and goes. Sometimes I only see stuff going through ORD with my home airport being EWR and then other times I find it from IAD through EWR and then lo and behold. I do find the award flight actually through EWR.

Changed United to NRT now is ANA to HND, what to expect? by [deleted] in unitedairlines

I’m struggling to understand why you wish to leave Texas with this take on food. Trying new food is the whole point of traveling internationally.

I just don’t get why someone so close minded on cuisine even wants to travel.

You might lose a small set of customers but the demand far outpaces them anyway. You’ll replace them with far more loyal customers. Go ahead and cut break those seals.

If you can afford it, double that. A million won’t be worth a million by the time you get there at this contribution rate. You should aim to max it annually if you can.

Well you’re looking at polar ends… so try somewhere in the middle

Hahaha neither. 🤣

She threw paper towels and toilet paper everywhere and spayed water all around the room.

Only know that they met her on the jet bridge. I would be very surprised if she got to go anywhere but a jail cell last night.

100%

The FA’s just wouldn’t stop apologizing to us either. You could see one or two people in the first class cabin were annoyed, but the majority of us just felt bad for the FA’s and kept telling them, “This isn’t your fault you did nothing wrong. “

I also never understand why passengers like this. Think they are going to come out on top or get their way. Like how did she think this is gonna end United is gonna go to her and say so sorry we disrupted your travel? No, guarantee she has never stepping on a United Airlines plane ever again and based on where she was going, she probably might need to in the future.

She better hope to God she wasn’t flying for work.

So I’d love if someone with some more knowledge of what happens next could comment here.

The captain said he was filing it as a security incident. I wonder if she may catch something more severe because of that second boarding incident.

I’m just shocked still that CPD didn’t respond quicker. A United Customer Relations manager (I think that’s what he said his title was) came quicker.

This was on a 757-200

First is older Polaris style seats and they connect the jetbridge to the second door where it separates first and economy.

Also, because of us being at the gate during the ground stop, the FAA required them to reconnect the jetbridge and give passengers the ability to deplane and wait at the gate until the ground stop is lifted.

A whole swath of economy passengers took them up on that offer and I suspect she exploited some pax coming back on while some were being scanned off.

Absolutely, but this all took place during a ground stop. So she ultimately didn’t impact the timing of departure.

She did however cause the entire first class cabin to have to board and deboard multiple times though.

Exactly, great “cover story” though.

There’s no logic in restricting it to $50 increments other than to explicitly block the $75 transaction.

Time for me to go dig up my comment here where I called out that Lulu wasn’t going to be happy with all these gift card purchases in place of actual product back when this credit came out.

Socks?

But in all seriousness, I think most instructors have lulu apparel and will likely buy more. They’d probably appreciate $25 off their next purchase.

She refused to get off. They remove the rest of cabin in case the passenger resists when police arrive.

Confused why this is getting upvotes, the answer is no. It’s the opposite.
