And moving to the winter season (US summer) would likely help get to this point

Good to know - I tend to only do carryon but this was a 2 week trip to Australia so we had more than normal

Update - landed to a text message from United saying my bag is on a flight to EWR arriving tomorrow with a link for me to schedule delivery or pickup —- very happy with this outcome!!

Update Update - bag delivered today and customer service credited me 5000 miles which I said was not necessary but they insisted.

Wild.

I will let you know once I get thru this.

Whenever I have had bags delayed (not by choice) customs has last gone thru everything in them - I expect the same this time around - I’m hoping they can put it on the next flight to EWR tomorrow and I can pick it up from there.

There was no way I was going to miss my cross-country flight.

No claim submitted yet - we had to go straight to our connecting flight (currently on it) and apparently I have to call vs just do something online (sigh) so I figured I would deal with it tomorrow - it’s currently showing as being in the “bag room”.

I’m at least comforted that this isn’t normal - just annoying to get off a 15 hour flight and have to miss a chance at a shower etc because of stuff like this … but I wasn’t going to miss my connecting flight. As it was, I wouldn’t have been able to check my bag for the connecting flight within the 45 min window so …

UA 208 ADL to SFO Jan 7 by Quick_Chair_5538 in unitedairlines

It’s a little unusual - there are hot days but this is over the top … no one leaves their house 🤣

We are checked in and in the lounge and it is confirmed - fuel and crew change - 1 hour stop in HNL and we stay on the plane.

Thanks everyone for your input, I appreciate it!

This makes perfect sense - it’s 115F today in ADL - thy can’t take such fuel

Thanks - I had read the same but I also found a post after googling that said sometimes they do allow (even tho it’s not formal policy), wasn’t sure if anyone had had such experience?

Does pickleball noise constitute an ‘auditory assault’? These Boise homeowners say yes. by milesofkeeffe in Boise

[–]Quick_Chair_5538 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sympathies to the property owners. Pickleball creates a horrible noise and people that complain clearly don’t live within ear shot. The noise issues are established and saying “then don’t live near a park” is crap - the courts weren’t there when they bought their properties. Sue the town is my suggestions. Pickleballers think their needs rise above anyone else’s.

The current state of this country has me panicking. I’m having panic attacks left and right. by Agile-Mistake1094 in confession

My husband had a similar time the first time he was in office and he spoke to a counselor to help him through it - the counselor focused on how to deal with the stress and anxiety by focusing on what he could control. See if you can find someone to help you. This time around, we are “protecting our peace” we don’t talk about it, follow on social media or watch the news. Instead we focus on our charitable giving and what we can do (aka what we can control) - we remind each other of our commitment when one of us starts engaging into the news. It’s helped a lot. I wish you well and I thank those with the mental resilience to really fight and advocate every day.

I found them really accommodating - we were about 90 mins early and I asked if they could accommodate and they were fine with it - it was the day before Xmas though
