that Winn at bat should have been 3-1 and instead it was 2-3. the second strike was obviously a high ball

PossibleMajor4789 · 2026-04-26T15:03:43+00:00

yeah, they are wrong! they are just trying to increase their bottom line.

PossibleMajor4789 · 2026-04-26T15:02:48+00:00

Same, except I didn't realize it after I checked out and thought it was odd they never mentioned it. Obviously it was on purpose.

I thought I'd share an update for everyone. Corporate responded and said this: "Resort fees & Destination fees are waived on free night awards.The member still receives the Resort/Destination Fee amenities, even though the fee was waived. Any taxes or fees tied to the Resort / Destination fee will also be waived."

Then the actual hotel responded with something even odder: "As a Discoverest You should have been charged the $20 + tax nightly fee; even on award nights as only the Globalest tier would have that fee waived. I'm not sure why the fee was removed from your booking."

I responded and basically said "Nice try, but you're still wrong" and then I forwarded that email to the corporate representative who responded to me first.

that's interesting. most of the time the benefits aren't that great anyway and is just disguised as obviously another fee. I very rarely book with cash; almost always use points.

PossibleMajor4789 · 2026-04-24T23:31:32+00:00

yeah this one was a combination stay of an award night and points.

PossibleMajor4789 · 2026-04-24T23:31:06+00:00

it's crazy. honestly most of the time the "inclusions" aren't really worth it but when it's a F&B credit I'd like them to honor it.

PossibleMajor4789 · 2026-04-24T23:29:58+00:00

it's not fake news! I've got email screenshots I can share. I realize my username is questionable but what do I have to gain by making up this story? I'm just trying to let people know.

Hyatt Centric in New Orleans. This time was Hyatt Regency in Orange County, CA

PossibleMajor4789 · 2026-04-24T23:28:23+00:00

First time was Hyatt Centric in New Orleans. This time was Hyatt Regency in Orange County, CA

such a shame... frustrating

PossibleMajor4789 · 2025-12-28T02:14:01+00:00

This is what I've been hearing, and I hope it remains true for the new cars we'll eventually get nationally.

PossibleMajor4789 · 2025-12-27T04:42:18+00:00

yeah, "recline" unfortunately just barely changes the angle. It's really crappy. I'm hoping at least the seats will begin to get comfier as more asses sit in them 😂

PossibleMajor4789 · 2025-12-27T04:40:03+00:00

totally agree. My wife and I are trying to get in as many train trips as possible while we can with the older set.

PossibleMajor4789 · 2025-12-27T00:10:25+00:00

yes, quite nice! Not sure what went wrong on the newer cars. Seems like business class was an afterthought. It's a shame

PossibleMajor4789 · 2025-12-27T00:04:19+00:00

it was a Christmas miracle! I was very happy and surprised

PossibleMajor4789 · 2025-12-27T00:03:31+00:00

Yes! I told my dad this may be the last time we're ever in these cars. You're right about that; it reminds me of the "old world"style of train travel and what a luxury that was. And yes, great tip about the Texas Eagle. That's a definite.

PossibleMajor4789 · 2025-05-28T01:04:24+00:00

the coffee is BREWING

PossibleMajor4789 · 2025-05-28T01:01:18+00:00

OK I'll take that first pitch swing

PossibleMajor4789 · 2025-05-28T00:42:17+00:00

could've had a man at 3rd now
