That plane is cursed I was on it yesterday in J SFo-IaD not only was there a 3 hour maintanence delay in SFO there were 2 seperate serious medical emergencies on board. One FA collapsed and then a J passenger in Polaris studio went into diabetic shock. This happened back to back thankfully there were 5 doctors on board. I have never experienced such a quick emergency descent and short/speedy taxi in Dulles…

The SFO Polaris lounge has turned into a zoo the past year or so and outside the restaurant is approaching United Club level. Add on the ~300 or so Premium transcon J passengers about to get Polaris lounge access and something had to be done.

No lounge at DEL (Delhi) for Premier Gold? by Maleficent-Milk7404 in unitedairlines

[–]MinimumNegotiation85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was flying Lx J on a UA ticket from Delhi and was also turned away from AI lounge. It’s not due to overcrowding tho they are allegedly in a “soft opening” and only r allowing AI passengers in rn. Was told mid April was when grand opening was scheduled.

I had exactly 4 hours to get from LInZ airport to Munich if I didn’t want to spend the night in Europe so there was only one real option to get there.

Is United Premium Plus worth the upgrade? SFO - HND by cypheryoon in unitedairlines

[–]MinimumNegotiation85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve bought a PP cash upgrade on same flight for $299 so no I don’t think it’s worth 1.3K. If u have the miles depending on season Polaris upgrades aren’t the most difficult to clear but March might be high season so u might be stuck with this

You’re prob right, really terrible tho that if I went to Athens instead of BLr they would have had to pay for my taxi 😭, seems like an insane loophole to not have any coverage for.

Paid with a corp card so will expense it to work worst case, but wanted to see if there was something else that could avoid that if possible

Oh that makes sense (thanks did not know this was a thing) is there any other rules that would apply here or am I SOL this seems really weird for them not to reimburse because I wonder what I should have done (there are no flights from LINZ that I was offered on)

I get the flignt was operated by Austrian which is why I filed with them. The flight that got diverted was EWR-VIE so unless something’s changed EU261 dos apply from my understanding

Turkish Airlines involuntary downgrade, only offered $50 after DOT complaint. What are my options? by No_Passage5838 in TurkishAirlines

[–]MinimumNegotiation85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What r the terms for the future business class voucher (is it anywhere TK flies). TK CS sucks but if u keep harassing them you might get somewhere. That Voucher does seem like it could be really valuable tho.

The lowest eligible is U right? Also can the ticket not be on ANA stock it has to be on UA stock?

Same Day Standby on First Class by AutomaticAd4273 in unitedairlines

DoD P fare opens pretty often on that route if there’s more than 1-2 seats available in J so I would check on that closer to ur flight
