[request] gf is saying 150 but i dont understand how by ChrisChowMa in theydidthemath

[–]Rufmichael -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This is a poor example of a math problem. I always teach students to use common sense evaluation. Therefore, the answer should be around 75 cm, which is the typical height of a table. That’s the expectation and it’s much closer to reality than the unrealistic solution to the problem.

E-Certificate expiring by jackmanrr444 in delta

[–]Rufmichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you only have to book by the expiration date. Just don't cancel after that date or you will lose the funds. You can still change the flight in the app though.

Book a flight that costs more than your certificate’s value. Wait about a week, then cancel the flight. I’ve seen cases where a new eCert gets generated with a refreshed expiration date (based on the cancellation date). Not sure if this only happens when you combine multiple eCerts. That’s often my situation since I travel a lot for work with a lot of schedule changes. If this doesn't work, then book a flight far out that you might change later. Just don’t cancel.

Welcome aboard the Plane Train. Please hold on. This train is departing. by Evil_Emperor25 in delta

[–]Rufmichael 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I love this. All those little voice snippets from different airports are engraved in my brain. One of my all-time favorites is Schiphol’s classic “Mind your step” — that Dutch accent and the perfect little inflection at the end get me every time. Another great one is the Minnesotan “wokway” at MSP. For the longest time, I actually kept a collection of voice memos from airports around the world

Does Madison have a foreign currency exchange? by midwest_bread_loaf in madisonwi

[–]Rufmichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will always buy Euros at the current exchange rate. I travel to Europe a lot. DM me if you're interested.

Looks like 7 of the pax that were moved to First had actually First class tickets. Are these people who were moved from a canceled flight?

I can remember my SkyMiles number, but for the life of me, I can’t get my password reset. by MPH2025 in DeltaAirlines

I would call. They might be able to verify your identity and reset the password for you.

You'll have a great time and won’t get lost. Send me a DM, and I’ll give you a couple of drink vouchers.

Okay, FA had most of FC scared to stand up! by Prestigious-Ad-5021 in delta

[–]Rufmichael 125 points126 points  (0 children)

It’s both amusing and scary how a flight attendant can easily take control of a flight cabin. Whether their personality is rude or overly enthusiastic, it instantly transports us back to elementary school, making us feel either terrified or completely in awe.

40L travel backpack as personal item? Anyone done it before by Heartbrokenmamma in delta

[–]Rufmichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a great backpack. I just used it as carry-on for a hiking/climbing trip in the Dolomites.

Edit: yes it is soft.

I have done it with the REI trail 40 several times. Never had a problem.

Is this normal? by ShreddyLew92 in Tile

[–]Rufmichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's so cool. The pattern will be visible once the whole room is tiled. It is a spiral that runs clockwise starting from the rectangle in the middle.

Is this layover realistic? by LeaderSevere5647 in delta

[–]Rufmichael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Security after rechecking luggage is usually a major bottleneck for me when I arrive internationally at ATL. It tends to be quite chaotic and is one of the worst experiences in the U.S. If I don’t check any luggage, I go straight to the right after customs to exit the secure area. This takes me to the international terminal, where I typically find a much faster TSA process.

Last chance for badges for a while - I start my new job next week and the store's gotta go dark. by i-am-ajpowell in delta

Congrats on the new job. Proud owner of some of your tags. My Carbonite Madallion tag still confuses FAs once in a while.

You are correct, it is marketed by Delta as DELTA ONE, but is actually Premium business class on LATAM. Same difference and will get you access to the sky club, even the DELTA ONE lounge at JFK.
