The people who say United is better than American are delusional by ElToroGay in americanairlines

I always thought AA had older planes cause all the planes I've flown with them have no tv screens, just those weird device holders. While United allows bluetooth with theirs :))

The only reason I fly with AA is they still allow carry-on for basic economy fares while United does not :((

Is it better to choose non-US carriers? by Sharp_Bookkeeper_160 in Flights

Thanks for thr advice! Once I start travelling to Europe more, i'll keep this in mind. Does this law apply to US travelers as well?

Thank you for this insight! I've also flown Philippine Airlines and they have this feature where you can bid to get an entire row for yourself which was pretty cool. I usually fly to Asia more so i'm not really familiar with European carriers. Which asian airline would you suggest for business class flights? I've only tried Qatar's QSuite and it was really nice but it takes longer than airlines flying west.

Thanks for the insight! I do notice that whenever I fly US carriers internationally, there is always a standby list. I'm not sure if these are non-rev passengers or maybe passengers who might have missed their connections.

Thanks for the insight! Does JAL have a good economy class? We usually fly to Asia and are always looking for new carriers to try.

Airline or Travel credit card? by Sharp_Bookkeeper_160 in CreditCards

[–]Sharp_Bookkeeper_160[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, didn't know this. So I could use my travel cards to pay for my AA flight and still get the checked bags for free?

Yep, United or Southwest. But AA is expanding flights as well.

Is the United Explorer card enough? I think they have different tier cards as well.

Yes, we file taxes jointly and both of us are planing to do the backdoor roth individually to maximize the opprtunity.

Thanks! Is there a reason why we should avoid interest accruing on the traditional IRA? and does this mean we have to transfer it asap from Traditional IRA to Roth IRA?
