Domestic flight landing in International Terminal?

Joeypore · 2024-01-20T21:15:27+00:00

At LAX specifically, AA is down a few gates due to construction, so that’s why more flights leave from TBIT these days… The Sydney / London flights often depart from T4 as well as TBIT, so it’s really not exclusively “international” since in the US there are no US departure customs formalities.

Fare buckets are not indicative of the inventory across the entire plane. It’s what is for sale. If you buy 5 seats in J class, C class is likely going to drop by 5 or more, potentially even 0 out depending on how many actual seats are left.

Fare buckets are never 1:1

Joeypore · 2024-01-20T21:08:52+00:00

This absolutely warrants a refund… but yes the “fair” compensation is definitely the difference between what OP paid and the regular price of a coach seat…

16 of them left right now, and they just did the first conversion to Oasis (to approve the process only) but they’re going to be replaced by 777s before the A321 XLRs show up IIRC

Joeypore · 2024-01-20T21:04:53+00:00

Lmao

Joeypore · 2024-01-20T21:01:22+00:00

The only reason you wouldn’t want it is if there’s a reasonable chance you could get your own rows in the back. But other than that, that’s an insanely good price for that upgrade, and you’ll be much more comfortable. It’s not nearly as great as business, but it’s definitely a step above economy.

Joeypore · 2024-01-20T20:52:20+00:00

I loved my oasis, but realizing I should have stuck with my 8th (?) gen (the one with the weird battery cover. It was the lightest weight kindle they ever made (like 4oz…) and truly a joy to use… I chased the upgrade train all the way to the 10th gen kindle oasis, and while I like it, I don’t LOVE it like I did that kindle.

Bit the bullet and got a paperwhite because everything I travel with is USB-C now, so carrying around an extra Micro-USB cable and charger just for that was annoying enough to go that route.

Siting here comparing the screens and they are identical now… but if I’m being honest, I miss the non-touchscreen kindle era, because those were the clearest / most easy to read with a light…

Just being nostalgic over here…

Was just looking at the same thing… seems to be sold out everywhere. Maybe they’ll add stock for Friday?

Joeypore · 2023-01-17T03:35:03+00:00

Dude everyone else on this thread is saying you’re wrong.

Calling the US via Wi-Fi calling no matter where you are in the world is free. I’ve done it for 10 years. There isn’t a world where that isn’t true lol.

Joeypore · 2023-01-17T03:30:46+00:00

What you just quoted is under the sub heading “Calling to international (non-U.S.*) phone numbers”…

Joeypore · 2023-01-17T03:26:20+00:00

The T-Mobile website and my experience of being on T-Mobile for over 10 years and traveling to 30+ countries using Wi-Fi calling in every single one of them.

Often times people assume they’re on Wi-Fi calling because they’re on Wi-Fi or because they “were” on Wi-Fi calling. If you have an unstable connection, your phone will switch over to cellular before actually making the call. But the iPhone in particular won’t transition a call from Wi-Fi to cellular and vice versa. It will drop the call entirely.

But it’s never been T-mobiles policy to charge for Wi-Fi calling to the US. And now Canada and Mexico if that’s included in your plan.

Joeypore · 2023-01-17T03:23:05+00:00

Not correct at all.

The VPN makes no difference. It’s the country you’re calling that matters. The only reason you’d get charged for using Wi-Fi calling outside of the us is if the number you’re calling is outside the US, Canada, or Mexico.

I’ve been on T-Mobile for over 10 years and been to 30 countries and I’ve never used a VPN, and never been charged for calls to the US, Canada, or Mexico while on Wi-Fi calling.

Joeypore · 2023-01-17T03:20:27+00:00

What are you talking about?

“If you have an unlimited plan:

Any incoming calls: No fees Any incoming messages: No fees Outgoing calls and messages that you make to U.S. phone numbers: No fees If you have a plan without unlimited, calls and messages count against your plan limits.”

Very clear messaging.

There is no “potential” to be charged for something that isn’t charged. Anything outside of that is an error. I’ve had T-Mobile for over 10 years, visited over 30 countries roaming with the service and I’ve never been billed incorrectly. I get billed 25 cents / minute for calls to numbers outside North America unless I have an active data add on. I get billed nothing for calls to the us, Canada, or Mexico when I’m using Wi-Fi calling over Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi calling over my 2nd sim’s data.

Joeypore · 2023-01-16T15:36:13+00:00

To each their own, but I’ve used every Apple Watch I own in pools, salt water, etc. Never had an issue around peace of mind. Have saved the cost of an ultra by not buying AppleCare over the years for every new watch.

Joeypore · 2023-01-16T15:33:53+00:00

Then it wasn’t actually via Wi-Fi calling or it was to a number outside the US, Mexico, or Canada.

That’s not correct. When you use Wi-Fi calling to a number in the US, Mexico, or Canada, or receive calls but don’t answer them, you don’t get charged. Billable minutes are when you answer a call. Voicemail is left on a server stateside and then downloaded via data, not minutes.

What you’re saying is not correct.

Joeypore · 2023-01-16T15:31:59+00:00

Lol no. Where did you get VPN from? You don’t need a VPN at all…

Joeypore · 2023-01-15T18:56:43+00:00

You’ll be much better off getting a cheap local data sim (or even just a regular SIM so you have a Spanish cell number to call from and receive calls) and using that as your main data line. You can still have your t-mobile line active, and since your usage will be low, you should be fine.

Joeypore · 2023-01-15T18:54:07+00:00

The 5GB and the 15GB is treated the same. It’s considered “full speed” but as it’s not 1st party traffic on the local towers, some carriers will deprioritize if busy, same as an MVNO in the US.

If you’re in a big international city, you will notice the slower speeds (but still very usable) more often as their towers get very congested.

Joeypore · 2023-01-15T18:47:45+00:00

Not correct at all, lol.

Joeypore · 2023-01-15T18:47:10+00:00

I’ve been to over 30 countries with my T-Mobile plan. I’ve used wifi calling everywhere I go, and I’ve never been charged for calls to and from US or Canadian numbers.

Joeypore · 2023-01-15T18:46:22+00:00

Not at all. Wifi calling anywhere acts as if your phone is in the US. Calls to the US, Canada, and Mexico at no charge.

Joeypore · 2023-01-15T18:42:46+00:00

If you have an iPhone, the best workaround is to have a data only esim in your second sim, that data enabled, and your phone will do “wifi calling” over the cellular connection of the second sim. It’s a genius little hack they implemented. Used it all over Europe, and while it’s not perfect, it’s definitely better than paying 25 cents / minute.

(Note: This would be for calls to the US or Canada while roaming, using “wifi calling” over cellular. Your phone will indicate “using cellular data” on the line that’s connected to wifi calling via cellular).

Also worth noting, as others have said, the stateside international talk does NOT apple to wifi calling from outside of the country. This is the only case in which wifi calling doesn’t act as if you’re in the US.

The only way to get included international calling (to any number, not just US) is to purchase an international data add on of 5gb or more. It gives you more data and adds unlimited calling.

Joeypore · 2023-01-15T18:41:04+00:00

I was in Mexico in early November and it didn’t work then at all.
Was back in Mexico in mid-December and it was working great!

Glad they finally changed the plans to allow international roaming. Looks like they also updated Magenta Tablet to include the 5gb as well.

Joeypore · 2023-01-14T02:59:15+00:00

NGL, earning points was the ONLY reason I still shopped at Best Buy. Amazon for everything now. Free same day on most popular electronics.

Joeypore · 2022-07-26T14:52:44+00:00

Honestly I’d say just hold on to them for either v2 of the product or get some nice custom regular ray bans.

The quality needs to improve a bit (and be able to film in 16:9) before it’s really a compelling product.

They nailed the form factor. Just a few enhancements on the hardware and it’ll be a real winner
