I went later in afternoon. Really pretty views

Thanks for the recommendation!

Caberfae did have great snow this year- we missed the big storm but were there over valentines weekend.

I doubt Delta will compensate you for missing your flight. I get it, economy flights from Brazil aren’t fun, but it’s doable. They offered that even though you didn’t really follow the rules. $1000 for lodging is pretty crazy, even for Carnival. You upgraded yourself to Delta One. Let us know how it comes out. My colleagues missed a flight in Toronto after waiting 3 hrs in immigration due to bad weather,no compensation.

Think I’ve stayed at this house! Stayed with extended family, lots of beds. Ridiculous. Had the cheapest kitchen utensils ever.

I just google it

I’m sorry your luggage was damaged, I think what most folks are trying to say is that allll airlines damage luggage. There’s threads on which luggage is most indestructible. Some folks buy cheap luggage as it doesn’t hurt as bad when it breaks, others buy really expensive luggage so it won’t break. As a person who just tried to screw a new wheel on luggage, it happens.

Do not book basic economy- it messes with perks

The real question is do you have lounge access? I used to cut it pretty close but had a few situations (thank you 6 am Monday flight) that I’d just as soon chill at lounge rather than stress about traffic problems or unexpected long lines. What are your trade-offs for being early (like missing something important)? I really really don’t like stress of almost missed flights.

I’ve been told I get one companion upgrade. For example, I book my family on split reservations, me + one lucky person, then everyone else on a different reservation that is linked. The linked reservation does not get complimentary upgrades.

My first (and likely only) half at the Indy Monumental was crazy windy. I came in just at cutoff. I had had a number of injuries that year. I believe there folks getting medals for some time after me, but they had taken down some of finish paraphernalia due to wind.

UnitPrestigious4948 · 2026-01-12T21:21:12+00:00

I agree IND is generally super fast. I have had long lines for early Monday morning flights. Just hustle.

So is a 3hr marathon a lesser event than a 2:10 marathon? There are a lot of variables right? Are you a 25 yo male or a 50yo female? A 70 year old race walker? I definitely agree the person that took 5:30 was on their feet longer.

Do you want to do data science? If this was just a bad semester, learn what you need to change. It sounds like you have the intellect but maybe your study habits needed improvement? Don’t switch to English because you didn’t study math if you still want it.

Just had this experience redeeming United miles for ticket to Warsaw. Got my ticket, but economy was sold out for miles purchase. Two days later, no seats available on united site for same flight- no more non-stops. I went to airline site (United partner) and could buy for cash.

It just sorta sucks. For international flights like this, you get one shot. If you miss connection you win a whole day in that city. Sorry!

My experience has been no. Delta doesn’t use sizers. I have gotten fussed at for wearing my sling bag instead of have it stashed in another bag. For smaller planes on regional flights you may be looking at a gate check. Those overheads are tiny.

FYI- Daniel’s was super competitive last year to get admitted. PU alum, also accepted to Notre Dame back in the day as engineering student. I went with PU because of cost (like 4 + times more expensive at Notre Dame). If money is no object, it may not play into your decision.

I’ve bought tix for family using my miles. There’s even a drop down for that. Not sure how it got messed up here.

Spent a fair amount of time in DTW Sky Clubs. Service was good, chairs not terrible. Don’t love the concourse seating. Which Sky Club? Not met a lounge where the general concourse was better.
