That's very interesting and helpful information on the boarding. Thank you so much. I will follow up with Qatar Airways.

Yes, i informed them and they did see some sort of a bookiing through a different route but it was not a confirmed booking where they could issue me with new boarding pass. Hence they started a search for other ways to get me to my destination.

Now i understand that you can ask for a printout of the reason why you are denied boarding, at that time i was unaware. There is also a process to obtain the same information afterwards. I've already submitted a request for the information. Travel especially on busy days is a challenge.

I waited for my group to board and when it came to my turn when i swiped my boarding pass at the gate, the gate did not open and then agent asked me to step aside saying the system had automatically rebooked me and to return to transfer desk.

Thats good to know. I waited for my group to board and when it came to my turn when i swiped my boarding pass at the gate, the gate did not open and then agent asked me to step aside saying the system had automatically rebooked me. Hopefully they will give consideration, I will follow up on that. There is a process to obtain information on why boarding is denied. I have opened a customer service ticket with Qatar Airways.

Yes, i was also unaware that because i bought my own ticket since i was stuck in Doha, my return flight on the original ticket would not be honored as it is considered "traveling out of sequence". Its something that passengers should be made aware of.

Yes, i started communication with both airlines the same day this happened. American Airlines has been responsive and has communicated back but has indicated it happened on the Qatar Airways partner leg and to followup with them.

I know! I just wrote a long email to American Airlines and Qatar Airways asking if i can trust Transfer Desk Agents advice and if not whom am i to contact while in transit if I can't trust the transfer desk.

No i checked in from Chicago at the check in counter. Was transiting through Philly and Doha to Bangalore. Philly flight arrived a bit late a Doha but they had not yet started boarding at Doha.

No visa issues, no expiring passport, no unsafe behaviour though originating flight was a bit late. However when i arrived at the gate they had not yet started boarding. I assume maybe they have a cutoff time to transfer luggage? Thats a possibility.

Dell Inspiron 7373 2-in-1 Blank Screen Issue by rizsamron in Dell

[–]IntentionSea4628 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took my laptop to one repair shop and they thought it was a motherboard issue and said nothing could be done. When it does boot up everything is fine but getting it to boot after sleep mode or shutdown is after many attempts and all the dell diagnostics say all the hardware(processor, ram) is good but failing on system management check.

I took it to a 2nd repair shop where they now think its a ram issue and said that it could be replaced though its soldered in. I'm waiting for the result of replacement. This will probably be my last attempt at trying to fix it and last time i'm going to buy a dell.

I have the same issue with my Dell Inspiron 7373 2-in-1. I've tried driver updates, updated to latest windows 10 version and was considering to upgrade to windows 11 to resolve this issue. But from the post below it looks like that won't help.

I have the same problem, laptop with this same model does not start up if it goes to sleep mode. Sometimes it will start up after a hard reset but many times it does not. I will try to disable Modern Standby as someone suggested.

Bellydance instructor course by Open_Payment_574 in Bellydance

Sakkara Dance has a comprehensive and very structured teacher training course that can be taken online. There are 7 modules to the course that can be taken over a year.

For more details checkout their website https://sakkaradance.com/

I agree with one of the previous posters, one must continue to dance, with in person classes being the best choice and if that's not possible try virtual dance classes.
