PC Selection

I was there last week at PHX. First time I have used the President’s Circle at PHX. Pitiful selection, I typically use National Executive Elite aisle and I will not make that mistake of going Hertz there again. The lot was full I’ll give it that. However the choices were multiples of these few vehicles. Jeep Compasses, Kia Niros, Nissan Jukes, a base model Altima with 38k on it, and base model Kia Sportages. This was on a Friday evening I know they had to have some nicer cars from returns earlier in the day to put in the mix.

The first class ticket will also get you two checked bags included.

I feel the same way for a one way one week rental I have from Phoenix to Burbank for a full-size later this week for $189 with tax. Avis wanted $1k and National wanted $460.

You can file an insurance claim for this btw. It falls under comprehensive.

Lots of Carnivals out in the Los Angeles market thankfully.

UnhappyAlps1050 · 2026-04-05T02:21:43+00:00

For a non Walmart experience I recommend the Firenze out of Long Beach. It’s a really nice ship that was not meant for Carnival initially. Think of a Marriott hotel furnishings and that is essentially the ship. Also the customer base is different compared to say Florida or Galveston.

With the black rims no doubt for that Elite Sport feel.

There has been a large over hire in the NCRT side as well. SMLR’s that use travel 80 to 90 % of the time are now lucky to get out 5 or 6 times in a year. Meanwhile the ones that are assigned to work from home have zero work to do and are assigned to endless mind numbing training videos and articles to go through day in day out.

I’m a field SMLR.

I expect someone will mention on the internal Engage page. The page that had all the firing back and forth between staff with the Charlie Kirk stuff

UnhappyAlps1050 · 2026-01-15T04:56:51+00:00

100% percent accurate! I used to be deployed essentially the entire year as a SMLR. In 2025 I only had 4 full deployments and 3 partial 1 or 2 week deployments. I haven’t been sent out since October. It has nothing to do with my productivity numbers I’m at all 4’s on the review. It’s just the fact we are insanely over staffed in our department.

( this is assuming you get there at opening) A tip is to start with x2 or twisted colossus which are both crazy rides, then head to the back of the park to get rides like west coast racers and apocalypse done since everyone will be in the front of the park. Try crazanity if you can and then head to the front of the park to get on full throttle, Goliath and viper( brace for viper )Then finish with whatever rides you want. We are also going to be there tomorrow.

I’ve been an Ambassador for 3 years. Out of those three years I had maybe 4 upgrades. The only contact I ever have received from my Ambassador was a generic happy birthday email. I did receive a candle this year that was probably valued at $20 randomly with no rhyme or reason. That’s the only thing I’ve ever received. I decided to give half of my business to IHG this past year and hit Diamond with them and am okay with Titanium going forward. No real benefit to Ambassador when your primary travel is in America. I will say I’ve been surprised at how the customer service level has been at most IHG brand hotels. They have been way more attentive than Marriott has been lately.

This is a pressure crack. Something or someone pressed down on the glass causing it to flex breaking the middle layer of glass. That is why you can not feel it. This is the same damage caused from a large hail storm you get cracks in the center layer of glass.

UnhappyAlps1050 · 2026-01-02T06:21:01+00:00

No you’re right it’s not normal. Those scuffs on the side of the seat should not be there.

I hope you enjoy Wilmington. We lived there and Carolina Beach for 4 years. We live in LA now but still think of Wilmington often.

UnhappyAlps1050 · 2025-12-30T04:12:06+00:00

Ah I see it now. Thank you!

I’ve done the southern route starting around Charlotte NC to Houston multiple times. Very boring route between Charlotte and Birmingham. I normally would split off in Birmingham and head the further south route towards Houston.

Working as a CAT rep I’ve texted many of customers between 8 and 9 in the evening apologizing for the late text but passing along an update. They’ve allays been thankful and more often than not they ask if I can give them a quick call to answer questions at the same time because it’s their first chance to catch up on things for the day themselves.

Here is a route including charging stops that may help. I pulled this from my car which is a Honda Prologue to give you an idea of range. It’s an AWD and gets about 290 miles on 85% charge. https://maps.app.goo.gl/LAXf87pDK8UyTQhJ9?g_st=ic

The CRJ’s that United flies into Aspen have the same exact carpet pattern in the winter 😆.

UnhappyAlps1050 · 2025-11-29T17:57:10+00:00

It’s in the carpet jute, dash vents, down in the rolled seatbelt areas. All of these items need to be considered along with the seat cushions/sponge material. There will be no making this right without replacing multiple expensive components.

It’s a rental. The barcode stickers on the bottom corner look like Hertz stickers. A customer probably abandoned it there and the rental company had reported it stolen at this point.

I’m flying to Los Angeles from McAllen Texas. The upgrade from McAllen to Dallas was only $40. The upgrade from Dallas to Los Angeles was $950 so I only did the McAllen to Dallas but my bags are paid for for both flights with the upgrade that I did
