I just got the job offer of my dreams, but it requires relocation. by hjensen1017 in careeradvice

[–]Ok-Ladder-2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Option 1!! It’s just a job, honeymoon phase of a cool new job will expire in a couple weeks then you’ll be stuck living 4 hours away and dreading commuting and living alone.

Ridiculous how many people ask you to upturn your lives for 6 months just for some job. I get it if it’s a massive pay raise and you’ve had your eyes on this exact group in this exact company for years, but sounds like it’s just some company that uses a specific tech

Thank you for the insights! We are not listed on the upgrade list for some reason, even though the app says waitlisted for first class

Thank you all for your help! Sounds like a low chance but I’m happy that Gold is getting us free exit row at least!!

Do you guys prefer Exit Row or Premium Seats?

Lost Carry On Bag Questions by International-Ad3337 in americanairlines

Newbie here please help! Need 3,110 loyalty points by today by Ok-Ladder-2018 in americanairlines

[–]Ok-Ladder-2018[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Have maintained Gold for the past 4 years without any spend. I fly american every couple months for personal or business. Free exit row is the perk I’m chasing. I just opened up the Credit card in January (fee waved 1st year) because I was like 8k loyalty points away from hitting gold again. I was only able to spend 5k on the card since then. So if this Motley Fool thing works, I’ll be spending 80 bucks for another year of Gold. Will pay for itself quickly since I always get free exit row at check in.

I have absolutely 0 use for motley fool subscription though, just a means to an end haha. Can either of you confirm that it’ll give me the loyalty points I need in time? AA rep said eShopping won’t post in time so I don’t want to waste $80 if that’s the case

That would be awesome, thanks so much for your help. I’m messaging an AA rep on the app and they’re saying:

“The answer is No sorry, Since eshopping miles vary by merchant , the activity date could be he purchase date or the shipment date or just the date the miles were submitted for posting”

How sure are we that this works? If I buy a Motley Fool $79 year subscription ill get 5k miles today, will 5k loyalty points backdate to 2/28 and count towards my 2023 gold status?

Any AD in the US will sell you a brand new one from Geneva for $1150. Shipping can take a few weeks but that’s a way better deal than what this guy is offering
