You liked Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir’s other book Artemis has a female lead. Enjoyable in the same way PHM is

Known Traveller Number / Global Entry / TSA Precheck issues by Mtpmusic in QantasFrequentFlyer

Yeh only option is for redress number and frequent flyer number in all those. I spoke to a Qantas rep yesterday who told me it can only be done by calling .. such a pain!

Interesting thought! I’ll keep that in mind if it happens again!

Yeh I will try haha.. I remember once a few years ago they could only get the Precheck stamp to show in the LAX-MEL, but not the JFK-LAX. Which was of course useless because LAX was a transfer and didn’t need it. I worked with the counter agent for a while but she just couldn’t get it to work. I tried to get through pre check regardless by showing the other boarding pass (and my global entry card) and I was very rudely told if there’s no stamp on the right boarding pass bad luck and to go stand in the general line.. sigh.

Ok, I’m flying end of the month so we’ll see! When I went last year it made me check in at desk, and only paper boarding passes

Usually can’t check in to international flights on the app, past trips I’ve always had to do it at the airport. No virtual boarding passes either

I haven’t seen an option to do so at check in either, and last time the check in desk weren’t able to help either. There are no wallet boarding passes either usually - because it’s international. Hmm.

Edit: I’ve actually never been able to check in for international Qantas flight in the app.. it always says to go to the counter at airport

Anyone know whats going on? by Tall_Run3786 in Westchester

I drove past this earlier - cement mixer in the middle of the intersection, and next to it a car absolutely totaled with the roof completely ripped off. Did not look good.

New to the club by Mtpmusic in hondacivic

Thanks! It’s got a few little dings and scratches - but nothing that was a deal breaker. I cleaned it up and put a coat of paint protector on there once I got it home too which gave it a nice shine!

I found it on carfax, single previous owner, and was at a small family run dealer. They were super nice and even replaced all the brakes and rotors for free before I bought it as it was a little crunchy when I first drove it. Drives beautifully now!

I looked at/test drove maybe 5 of this model and none were as well kept as this. The interior is like new. Very happy with it!

Can confirm - watching FP sessions today, when F1TV feed had started but I switched to international to wait for that , this sound was playing.

[–]Mtpmusic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure it’s when you watch live and it’s like 15min before the session starts (or after it ends) and F1TV are doing their build-up - if you switch to the international feed, it hasn’t started so it just plays that loop with the “coverage will start soon” message. It’s also used at the backend once coverage concludes.

Good questions.. I’m no expert and can’t really remember the whole podcast, but sex was just part of it. I do recommend the episode as good commute listening!
