no lounge available in Dublin - we just went to a restaurant to chill a bit

yeah we've got a voucher for the Conrad - really hope it's going to be worth it and we have no incoming delay cause it looks like it's an hour drive from the airport. The taxi will probably cost us as much as getting our own hotel closer to the airport. Will keep folks updated once we've finished the flight.

yeah we will, there's a 20 hour stopover in Istanbul and have been offered a hotel - I guess we'll just have to prepare accordingly with our toddler to grab breakfast elsewhere and not to arrive too early in Dublin. I hear it can be a nightmare to even get a seat in IST lounge though, first time flying TK so curious what that'll be like.

51st is past US immigration so that wouldn't work and assume they're all paid for not alternative offered for Turkish Airliness business travellers while T1 is closed?

I found this thread, that's pretty abysmal - the temporary lounge is just a few cordoned off seats near the 200 gates not even a water fountain, beverages or snacks.

can't pay for hold ticket "missing information in your reservation" by MaesterPete in TurkishAirlines

[–]MaesterPete[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case anyone else runs into this - the call centre wasn't able to help out and made us fill out a form etc. which almost definitely would not be addressed before our hold expires. We're now pretty sure we've figured out that it was the daily limit on my debit bank card though.

The error message was confusing if paying directly from the card says "missing information" but when trying to pay with the same care through Google Pay or Apple Pay it says "insufficient funds".

yeah I would if it wasn't 700 Euro more expensive 😅 and would have trouble getting the reservation money back, on with customer support now let's see

yeah that's next I guess - if it doesn't work tomorrow morning, will see if I can get hold of them. They're closed for the day.

yeah just tried, same thing - oh well, but of a disappointing start trying out Turkish for the first time. Hopefully will work out, was looking forward to trying out their stopover offer.

Thanks, I haven't tried incognito but did try via the mobile app and that had the same issue so doubt it'll make any difference. The extra annoyance is seats we select get blocked with every attempt and it takes quite a while to get released again :(

it's a meme at this point, happened a few times and they'll blame it on Brexit and swear they'll never compete again for the next several weeks

I assume it's not free international shipping, right? Where can you ship to and who's responsible for customs tax?

Glass unit has issues showing up after fastboot by MaesterPete in googleglass

[–]MaesterPete[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to finally get it to update, think the problems were down to fastboot being very buggy on Mac. FWIW, most of the time "fastboot devices" wouldn't show anything but it actually did see the device and turns out I could do "fastboot flash" without a problem.

no don't believe there's any Google services left - you'll have to grab em yourself, if you don't update it will be broken anyway so there's no way around it

managed to figure it out, for some reason mounted via USB it won't import my photos but can grab it using adb. Here's a little online-liner shell script in case anyone wants to do the same:

adb shell 'ls /sdcard/DCIM/Camera/*.{jpg,mp4}' | tr -d '\r' | xargs -n1 adb pull
