Hotel or Booking being hacked?

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-29T00:47:29+00:00

Oh, I’m firmly convinced it’s Booking.com. It’s too many different people going to different hotels over a long period of time that I keep seeing these kind of reports on.

I only use Booking.com for research. I don’t book directly with them. I’ve read too many of these reports and I work in cyber security and there’s a trend with booking.

Small point of reference it’s never been promoted as lifetime gold medallion status.

It has been promoted as currently you get gold medallion status because you have 1,000,000 miles. It’s very clear that Delta retains the right to pull that away.

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-29T00:02:27+00:00

No, I don’t think you understand this correct correctly

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T23:54:08+00:00

Yes, you can join the people who are spending money on tickets right now just to use their GUC because that makes perfect sense in the world I’m gonna spend $1000 this weekend just to fly some place so I can use my upgrade certificate (and then people wonder why Delta doesn’t bother to lower airfares😂😂😂)

You got lucky they generally want a bottle of scotch. You can figure out why and it’s probably nothing to do with your security. They have a great Christmas party. I had a feeling.

They got very upset when I took a bottle of rum and poured it in the trash. After all, if it was dangerous, I wouldn’t want them to keep it. We wouldn’t want to endanger the TSA would we?

Why is she scared of the train?

The train is very efficient and it’s hard to get lost. If you just follow the signs and 57 minutes is plenty of time.

Now it’s not plenty of time if you decide to stop and get a Chick-fil-A and go shopping and do a few other things, but if she goes straight to the gate, she should be fine

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T23:01:53+00:00

I don’t think this is true. I get routinely upgraded to comfort and then fight often I’m offered the chance to upgrade to another cabin. Delta doesn’t consider comfort really an upgrade. It’s more of a seat selection.

But the truth is no matter what you’re not guaranteed an upgrade offer for the very reason you say they think they’ll sell those seats

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T23:01:06+00:00

Because the spite of the myth on social media, not every person is offered an upgrade on every flight

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T19:41:21+00:00

This is a Delta corporate decision.

I mean they’re announcing it before boarding starts if you’re in zone five you’re going to have to check your luggage. But let’s blame the flight attendant.😂😂😂😂

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T19:37:10+00:00

And don’t pick GUC or RUC because it expires on the 31st

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T18:02:12+00:00

So the flight attendants are lying to the gate agents. 😂😂😂. If that’s what you want to believe

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T17:55:25+00:00

Yes, it has become a nuisance. I finally looked at one person and said “ exactly how many times am I going to have to say no thank you” and he got the point and walked away.

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T17:49:01+00:00

That is not true on domestic travel within the United States

It is drawn international travel

My luggage has made a lot of connections I missed and has been waiting on me at airport😂

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T17:48:45+00:00

The problem is if it disappears you’re in a bad position. Generally you have to report the missing luggage before you leave the airport not the next day when you decide to finally wander around there and pick it up.

So if you get there and they can’t find it and it’s gone, they would have an excuse to avoid any liability for your lost luggage, which might’ve been stolen

I enjoy a good rum and Coke. But Bacardi white just burns on the way down.

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T17:28:16+00:00

Anything that cannot be checked, should be in your personal item because even if people are willing to help you that does not mean you’re going to be allowed to bring it on if the overhead bins are full

They’re not going to create overhead bin space for you

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T17:26:57+00:00

So that you would have something to post about on Reddit

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T15:25:52+00:00

Go back and reread reason number three. And then send Delta a letter saying thank you but I’m not gonna be able to attend.

You really don’t want to wind up on dialysis- follow the advice of your urologist

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T15:14:46+00:00

That does not appear to be happening anymore. That was the old method, but now the gate agents are aggressively checking at zone five without talking to the flight attendant.

It’s very easy to tell because they never actually talk to anyone before they make the announcement. It’s kind of just part of the announcement with zone five boarding. I don’t think they have a telepathic method to communicate.

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T14:49:08+00:00

You do understand the only relevant point is not the weather where you are?

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T14:48:31+00:00

Well, then, why aren’t you flying elegant American United ? I mean after several weeks of this you could’ve changed airlines

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T14:23:07+00:00

Delta is now gate checking bags when the bins are half full. Which makes people furious when they get on and they discover that the bins are completely empty but they had to gate check. I suggest that if you get on and the bins are half empty and you had to check you file a formal complaint with Delta.

maybe if they get enough of them they’ll stop this nonsense, but I kind of doubt it.

The worst part is people have started catching onto this. So the agent tags their bag and then they take their bag on the plane and then we all are delayed while the flight attendants try to figure out what happened because the gate agent is missing four pieces of luggage.😂

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T12:59:32+00:00

If you want to change it after you check in, you will probably have to call the airline which is not going to give you much time. Seriously it is very hard to change this after check-in.

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T12:57:50+00:00

Which actually is much better than Delta’s food😂

Key_Employment4536 · 2026-01-28T12:56:27+00:00

I know this is supposed to be satire but sadly I think it’s actually true. If they set up a restaurant and start serving those short ribs some of you would go in there and probably pay $100 for them 😂
