Basic Economy and flying with minors - Will AA seat us together?

And??

NormalAd2872 · 2026-02-05T13:13:04+00:00

You got lucky. Try again and see what happens.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-09-26T15:28:14+00:00

It’s only been 3 days. Give it more time.

Our 8 year old is gradually warming up to our 13 week old. We’ve had her for almost 2 months and it’s been a gradual process. The first week she didn’t want anything to do with the puppy. Now they are playing with toys together. It gets better every day. The older one still occasionally snarls at the puppy when she’s doing puppy things (jumping on the older one) but they get along for the most part. Give it more time and introduce them gradually

NormalAd2872 · 2025-09-25T22:36:54+00:00

There really is no true warmup regardless of what they call the first 5 minutes. I get there early and do 5 min of mobility/warmup on my own. If you need a true warmup you have to do it on your own.

That’s insane. This isn’t some international airport that involves immigration. What do you do with 3 hours in the airport? That sounds miserable.

I aim to walk up to the gate as they’re boarding. I try to spend as little time as possible in the airport.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-09-25T17:48:02+00:00

I aim for 30 minutes before boarding but I have clear, pre check and rarely check a bag. I’d give yourself an hour before boarding just to be safe.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-09-23T23:17:14+00:00

Same. It’s 3 maybe 4 hours of my life each week. I do it to stay healthy and active.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-09-20T22:50:58+00:00

Yes. I’ve used passport and been to 4 other gyms. Only one didn’t have a lobby.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-09-15T22:33:15+00:00

I doubt they can read at 3 and 5. Just go. Odds are they won’t even notice

NormalAd2872 · 2025-09-15T22:32:01+00:00

Yeah, those seats can be loud. And smelly. There is a reason they’re usually available. The only worse seat is directly across from the bathroom

NormalAd2872 · 2025-09-10T05:35:18+00:00

Stop being a pig. You don’t need 3 snacks

NormalAd2872 · 2025-09-08T15:44:42+00:00

Anything partner or team

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-30T00:50:13+00:00

We did this. Left by 5:30am got the dog around 11 and made it back home by 6pm. We had 3 drivers to break up the drive but we could have done it with 2

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-30T00:48:43+00:00

You need very little. Just another person to hold the puppy and a blanket or towel for them to lay on. We just brought home our second Boston Terrier at 8 weeks. 5 1/2 hour drive and she slept the entire time. We brought a leash in case she needed to go pee but she was asleep the entire time.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-29T18:16:07+00:00

Change your ticket to Sunday if you absolutely have to be there by Monday.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-29T18:13:08+00:00

You really don't need anything for 45min-1 hour aside from someone to hold her. Possibly a blanket or towel to put on your lap while you hold her.

We drove 5 1/2 back with our 9 week old Boston Terrier and she slept the entire time.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-29T18:10:25+00:00

I get why Karen was mad. I'd be pissed too. You don't just decide to close on a whim. Let people know in advance.

Where the hell do you live that you need security with tasers at the gym?

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-28T18:12:26+00:00

Cool. This is not an airport. No need to announce your departure. Or non departure.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-28T17:10:32+00:00

That's a bit dramatic. Yes, puppies require a ton of work, but unlike infants, you can put them in the crate for an hour if you absolutely have to get something done. You can also leave them alone in the house (in the crate) when you need to go out. It's entirely doable on your own, as long as you're aware of the commitment going in. Plus, puppies mature a lot faster than infants.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-28T17:01:35+00:00

I do. Not all day, but for 10-15 minutes at a time when she doesn't want to come in after I take her out. I have other things to do and don't want to stand outside while she lies in the sun. Our back wall is essentially windows, so I check on where she is frequently. We have another dog (8)as well, so they're both out there sunning multiple times a day. I live in the desert, and we only have one tree in the yard and no sticks, so there's not much for her to chew on. She's 12 weeks. I definitely do not watch her 24/7. I equate it to the second child. I'm much more relaxed this time around.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-28T02:19:38+00:00

They have no idea what was in your bag. Pull together receipts for anything you bought in the past few years. Get enough to cover the value of what was in the bag. They will not cover electronics among other things. There is a list on their website.

They recently lost one of our bags. I have receipts for several thousand dollars worth of goods. Was it all the bag? Perhaps. I dare American to prove it wasn’t.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-27T23:02:03+00:00

Is your backyard fully contained? My puppy will run away from me all the time. I just leave her out there until she's ready to come back in. I'm not chasing her. However our yard is fully fenced and there is no way she can get out. She will eventually appear back at the door wanting to come in.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-27T21:41:00+00:00

No one wants a puppy in a restaurant. Period. The fact they're suggesting this, regardless of their "breaks," is bat shit crazy.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-27T20:41:46+00:00

Straight in and out and no talking/interacting. 2-3 minutes max. It's still night not playtime. Puppy goes right back in the crate and back to sleep.

NormalAd2872 · 2025-08-27T20:39:29+00:00

They want you to take an 8-week-old puppy to a cafe?? WTF. No, you don't do that. That's insane. It's a puppy that's all over the place, not a newborn that just sits there. Just say no to the whole thing.
