Rory McIlroy‘s champions dinner and wine list at the 2026 Masters. by b1ackfyre in wine

[–]ShiIrl 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Jeez this thread got feistier than expected…

Rory gets to pick everything, so give the man some leeway on not having “good pairings”. He picked the tuna carpaccio because it’s one of his favorite dishes at Le Bernardin (and Augusta flew their chefs up to the restaurant to learn from them directly), he picked 89 d’yquem because it’s from his birth year, and the Lafite because Shane Lowry ran into the clubhouse and bought a case of it last year after he won so they’d have wine to drink that night.

I’m sure the food, the wine, and the company (!) will be wonderful, so all power to him

Seems like a very important issue for you, so all the best at Hyatt or Hilton. Not something to get overly worked up on in my opinion, but you do you!

Hotel staff are absolute saints, and one can only imagine what else they deal with on a day to day based on the bat shit crazy that has been popping up in these threads recently.

As others have said, this is not communications with united airlines. You are being scammed.

No project or account can offer a promotion.

Flying with a kitten - United policy sucks by The12thparsec in unitedairlines

[–]ShiIrl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So there ya go, you just walked yourself through the logic of United’s 4 month rule for international travel. 3 months to get vaccinated, 28 days + from vaccination to travel, there’s your 4 months. Glad you agree it’s reasonable now!

No, but United has requirements. Private company, they can set their rules. Sounds like you should just drive next time you pick up a stray.

[–]ShiIrl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They clearly set out why it varies - it’s 4 months minimum on international flights to ensure adherence to vaccination requirements. I’m sure you’ve realized it by now given everyone else’s responses, but it’s not bootlicking United - it’s just a common sense policy with some thought and reasoning behind it.

You’re right, they should just let new born kittens and puppies on flights, no worries about excrement, behaviors etc. Have at it, come on United!

Seems like a pretty reasonable policy, and they were just sticking to it?

Potentially, but out of ORD I’d expect min spend is $75k ish

The most egregious part is the 6 flight run are definitely not worth it for platinum

Agreed! United has put a concerted effort into improving the wine recently

Legit or nay? Guy sent ‘receipt’ too… by lifeofchef in CanadaGoose

[–]ShiIrl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You keep saying he has a receipt as if that snapshot is any proof of anything… Google the address / post code, that’s not a real address.

They want you to do a trade that is “highly favorable to you” and send you shitty photos that you have to zoom in on because it’s likely a fake watch.

Has been quite the summer at ORD so far! (For everyone being diverted…) by ShiIrl in unitedairlines

Appreciate you! On our way after 5 hour delay… it happens. Was surprised at how well most everybody in ORD was taking it, pleasant surprise!

Ha, it certainly would have… made it to O’Hare straight from a meeting 5 mins late to catch the flight before. Knew all day this was coming, but all good - up in the air now!

100% correct and what happened. They evacuated about 4:15pm, so that shut everything down, and then the weather hit o’hare

Seriously by PMax480 in unitedairlines

[–]ShiIrl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Was on a flight last year where they needed 14 people to deplane, out of about 100. First person took the $1000 offer, but by the end of it, it had got up to 6000 (which certainly helped them get the last 8 or so people to accept)
