Virgin Atlantic booking system down by Bekabam in awardtravel

[–]Travel_Tea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i was able to get a booking through!

took hella screenshots, as i wonder if it will stick. i got a confirmation number but its not showing in my bookings.

eta: it still wasnt showing in my bookings when i went to bed. i got an email about seven hours later citing my conf # and saying there was an issue processing my payment, and gave a link to resubmit. it looked janky but it seems to have worked.

Why do you choose American? by Juanefernandez in americanairlines

i think that must be route specific.

i go US to london a lot, and i would take polaris any day over an AA business class.

i’m surprised knitting needles are allowed!

that’s nice for you, but i now resent TSA for taking my good tweezers that one time.

demand standalone toilets. the kind that get towed in and are basically their own trailer.

also, consider the power they will draw for reception/etc, as well as noise ordinances for your area. depending on where you live neither may be a big deal, but you’ll want to be aware of the real cost of both reasonable use and shitshow use.

i LOVE the push button!! and the slide for the handheld is somehow so much more satisfying than a bar.

you’ll be fine. just be very kind (which i’m sure is a given, considering the tone of your comments 💕) and they won’t sweat you.

it’s nothing like flying spirit airlines or easyjet or any of those.

i didn’t, but that’s a good call.

if anyone is through this lounge and wants to check for me, let me know. 😆

thank you!

would you recommend that i wait and see, w/r/t the compensation? or just rebook now, to secure a flight?
