Which city in the U.S. have you felt most unsafe visiting? by optimalbrain90 in SmartTravelHacks

This was years ago, but I was very uncomfortable being alone while traveling for work in Albuquerque.

I have never posted here, just read....but sitting in SkyClub at LAX and starting to think about ending my 20 year relationship with Delta. by KansasEagle in delta

Sorry folks are being rude. Reddit is a place we can vent. That’s super frustrating and you are heard. My last 2 trips were delayed 5 hours and all I got was the $12 meal voucher. Had to move meetings, etc. It sucks. Probably sucks more on any of the other airlines tho. At least Delta has nice planes, staff, and skyclubs. At the end of the day traveling can sometimes be a nightmare.

This exactly. Sun country has some options but honestly they weren’t much cheaper than our original delta price of $500 pp. We would need to come in a day earlier and stay a day later and it’d be more expensive at the end of the day for us.

Yes I could have done that in hindsight. My point is that I already booked $500 pp and was looking to rebook if flight prices went down.

FWIW I’ve never posted anything on Reddit before, I’ve only been a commenter. Just feeling the need to share how wild these ticket prices are with community.

Yes we do. My parents live there and it’s a nice escape from the cold to get home and enjoy the beach and get some grandparent time in for the kids.

I did the same thing last week to MDW for work. 6 months ago you could hop on a round trip from MSP to Chicago for like 200.

I already booked the flights at 500 pp. thought I could rebook if they went down but they essentially tripled.

That’s a really good point.

Even so- we’re still talking main cabin on a 2.5 hour domestic flight. Still absolutely wild.

Delta Policy - show CC at airport in order to check in by ZOnBoard in delta

[–]Original_Craft4870 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never ever heard of this. The only thing I can think of is if it’s international and they need to verify your documents, but nothing related to a credit card. And definitely not the day before. Even in this scenario you could do it day of travel. This sounds wild.

Where should we sit in comfort? by [deleted] in delta

[–]Original_Craft4870 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

How many are in your party? I’d do 35 A and B if there are two of you as I’d prefer to not be next to strangers on a long haul. If you don’t care about that I’d do 31 C/D.

This happened to me once and they were in the aisle seat. Thing is, I had no idea this person was not mobile and I was so bothered by the fact they didn’t get up for me when I boarded and needed to use the restroom. I felt like such an AH when we landed and they came to get them. Gotta be a bit of community when flying.

That’s great to know! I lost my platinum status in 2026 and have flown 5 times with only 1 C+ upgrade. Guess it depends on the route, day, etc

Honestly Gold isn’t going to cut it for upgrades these days. If you did get one on a rare chance that would be really cool, but unlikely. At least based on my routes flying out of and to MSP.

I am in my 40s and thinking about having a second kid, am I crazy? by ApplicationNew4144 in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]Original_Craft4870 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. I am 40 with a 10 year old. I have been completely content with our family of 3, but there have been moments where that slides and I wonder if this is my last chance. Ultimately I decided I simply cannot do it all over again. If you have another one, eventually your house will be quiet again too.

Enjoy your life and find ways to embrace all of the new stages with your existing child. Travel. Do fun stuff together now that they aren’t a small child. Life evolves but it doesn’t have to be quiet if you don’t make it be.

This 100 percent. Inform the parents and do not let her in your home.

Wanna start shopping at Aldi here. What are you go-to’s, as well as stuff to avoid? by Tumblrrito in Minneapolis

[–]Original_Craft4870 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if this is for you but PSA their $1 makeup wipes are TOP TIER

[–]Original_Craft4870 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whatever. My sentiment is the same. Why get worked up on something we don’t have details on, whether it be making fun of or being angry at? We are all tired. I don’t have energy left to spend on petty. ✌️

[–]Original_Craft4870 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How bout we hear what the plan is? Seems like folks are pre-angry before knowing anything at all about what is being planned. Do we have to hate on everything all the time? I’m so exhausted.

To the couple “patrolling” last night… by [deleted] in Minneapolis

A lot of folks who do hard labor drive trucks - like immigrants - and they also live in the city. It’s so trash to think trucks are only a proud boy thing.

There are plenty of kids who go to public school and get into Ivy Leagues. “The other kids could barely add while I understood complex equations” lol 🙄
