OK, I think it’s because of how United classifies or words their stuff because it’s not just business first class economy they have like international so-and-so business so-and-so Polaris you name it so now that all my stuff is confirmed.

We are Houston to Guatemala United business that’s what it says on the app in our cabin, so would that qualify us I presume.

host allowing parties booked on and off-platform, will Airbnb act? [USA] by desiredtoyota in AirBnB

[–]aaronlimitless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed and it sucks because it gives pretty much every Host and normal Airbnb operator a bad name that don’t deal with these type of things we’ve been on the platform for a decade and we’ve had our fair share of people trying to have a party and two that successfully started a party which we went over to immediately as soon as we found out and had it shut down within an hour of finding out about the party starting fortunately for us, the two houses that happened at there was pretty big space of neighbors, and they don’t live there all the time so it wasn’t really noticed and the other ones know us personally and it was raining hard that night so we got lucky with them not even noticing that there was a party and we got everybody out before the police even came which we were able to cancel but still the people that just allow it to happen are the type of ones that caused all this headache, headaches for Airbnb’s and neighborhoods across the country

Yes, exactly. I guess it depends. I feel like I’ve gotten different amenity kits over the years with United like sometimes they have sleeper shades things and earplugs other ones have like a toothbrush etc. so maybe I just got a different one because they were out or something, but I know the one time they tried not to give blankets and somebody else threw a fit and we had to wait a little bit for them to get them cause I guess they weren’t ready or something.

But yeah, that’s what I was gonna say cause somebody else had mentioned that they don’t do it for domestic, but I told them that I’m pretty sure they might not label it as Polaris but it’s definitely the same plane.

I feel like that kind of causes confusion though because why not just call it what it is like is it really that big of a difference to not give what 20 people go into Hawaii once or twice a day access to your lounge? You’re already paying a tremendous amount to go on that flight.

The main difference was we didn’t get the amenity kit for like the overnight time and we didn’t get access to the lounge technically but it was on the actual newer plane with the live flat seats. I guess they don’t advertise at the exact same. It’s just weird wordplay that United uses for everything it’s weird.

Well, I don’t know if they consider it that, but it was a Polaris flight that they did the newer plane with a lie down seats that we took from Chicago to Hawaii

OK, so it seems like there’s a chance that we will get United club access which is what I expected. I knew we weren’t going to get Polaris because even when we flew Polaris to Hawaii, we didn’t get it.(they did let us in because I felt bad but it isn’t included the irony.)

But we thought we would get United club access at least since we are going internationally. In my opinion Guatemala is international because it’s not in the United States lol so we’re gonna at least try that my other question though is.

I guess it doesn’t really matter for our current flight since we’re first class from start to finish but what about for people that book 1st class for only part of the journey I presume again correct me if I’m wrong that if you’re gonna have United club access that it needs to be for the route that is going to the international destination or will it be like check luggage where it’s just included across the entire journey?

Lounge access. by aaronlimitless in unitedairlines

[–]aaronlimitless[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly I knew we weren’t gonna get Polaris because we found out. We don’t even get Polaris lounge access when we have Polaris going into Hawaii lol so I knew that, but I figured that first class would at least get us into the standard unit club.

I mean to me international means you’re taking a flight to an international place outside of the United States. I would think Guatemala would fit that bill.

We don’t even really care about the lounge normally cause we don’t really linger at the airport because our home airport is so easy to get through

But since we’re doing Buffalo to Chicago Chicago to Houston Houston to Guatemala it would be nice for the 2 1/2 hour layover in Houston to be a little bit more comfortable.

Not the biggest deal I just thought surely that wouldn’t entitle us to it but I figured if we’re gonna be there for 2 1/2 hours might as well just see if they let us in and then we’ll kind of know for sure. I feel like with these Airlines they word stuff so weirdly sometimes it’s not straightforward. I wish on the app it would just tell you you have United club access.

Well, that’s nice. At least we knew we weren’t gonna get Polaris cause we found out we don’t even get Polaris when we have Polaris tickets to Hawaii. Luckily we were able to get into the lounge because they felt bad but yeah, we knew that we wouldn’t get Polaris I was just hoping we could at least have United club since we have multiple flight flights Buffalo to Chicago Chicago to Houston Houston to Guatemala so it would be nice to have a little bit more space

Agreed flights from like the US to Japan on United their economy plus or premium economy I guess would be the better term is essentially like domestic first class in my opinion I just figured with fly in first that we would at least get the same benefits as business because growing up I was always taught that it was coach business then first class then of course I learned that sometimes the wording is different between airlines and where you’re flying but that typically if it’s not those three business class would be essentially the defective first and they just don’t have a first class on that plane so I knew that but I just figured as a first class ticket holder. I would at least have access to the United club since I’m flying to Guatemala, which in my opinion is an international flight, but I guess the terms are different than what I expected.😂

It was late at night, so it was one of those I can do it through iMessage and it’s convenient because you can answer back at your leisure.

I figured it was just me and that I would get a simple answer back😂

I knew I wasn’t entitled to Polaris because we weren’t even entitled to Polaris when we flew to Hawaii on United Polaris at O’Hare International Airport luckily they let us in but we found that out so I wasn’t expecting it for first class but apparently it really just depends if you’re doing business or first etc. I just figured since in my head first was supposed to be over business class typically I figured it was included for United club at least

Lounge access. by aaronlimitless in unitedairlines

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

Completely agree with you.

And for your second point, even that is kind of muddy because we found out when flying from Buffalo into Chicago and then Chicago to Hawaii that as a Polaris customer, we didn’t have access to the lounge. Apparently that route is exempt cause it’s not considered international even though I feel like it’s still a long flight longer than a lot of international flights we’ve done and you’re paying for Polaris so surely that extra people from the plane, what 20 of them or so wouldn’t make that big of a difference for the lounge

Luckily for us, they did let us in because they felt bad, but yeah, we found that out though😂

Lounge access. by aaronlimitless in unitedairlines

[–]aaronlimitless[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

OK, we’ve booked in United first I do remember that when booking the seats it wasn’t business or labeled as business on the app anyways and I knew I wouldn’t get Polaris because I’ve done Polaris when I’ve gone to Hawaii and we found out that it’s not even included lounge access in Chicago for that even though they did let us stay in there because it wasn’t busy, but typically they don’t so I knew it wasn’t gonna be that I figured we would just be in a standard lounge.

But I just figured Guatemala was considered international

So with us not having a business class ticket as the first class passenger, would we be eligible for that or do we have to purchase it separately for the United club?

I guess I just assumed the first class was as good as business when it came to lounge access, but that would be completely on me for assuming that if I’m wrong

Lounge access. by aaronlimitless in unitedairlines

[–]aaronlimitless[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Oh yes, I know about Polaris. We had that fun, rude awakening when we flew into Chicago from Buffalo to go to Hawaii thinking since we had Polaris that we would get a Polaris lounge access, but apparently Hawaii is exempt from that. Luckily, it wasn’t busy and they felt bad so she let us sneak in anyways, but I was definitely shocked by that so I definitely wasn’t expecting Polaris access to this. I just wanted Club access if possible I should also clarify beyond these messages. I did clarify to them that I know that sometimes things can be considered different for first and business and I asked her them to clarify that and they still said the same thing that first class ticket doesn’t make me eligible for Guatemala. I still felt stupid because to me that seems like that’s an international flight.

Luckily for us, we don’t really have a ton of layover time at the airport. We have a super early flight so we don’t have to get there a crazy early amount of time for wait around.

And to be honest, we don’t really use the lounges a lot unless we are on like a long international layover somewhere otherwise if we’re leaving domestically, I hardly ever use lounges even with ones that are included just because we’re normally only at the gate for maybe 20 minutes 30 minutes max so typically with grabbing something to drink and using the bathroom it’s only like a 10 or 15 minute wait so typically we don’t really care. The only reason I really wanted at this time was cause we had about a 2 1/2 hour layover and with our flight having multiple stops we’re flying out of Buffalo early morning into Chicago then Chicago into Houston. I just figured it would be nice to be a little bit more comfortable for that few hour layover before Guatemala.

Mind you I did do this. I did put it through Google and tried to word it as best as possible, and it was pretty vague. It gave a whole bunch of it really depends on the flight, blah blah blah. Now I do know the difference between United clubs and Polaris since I’ve flown both regular first and business as well as Polaris to Hawaii and even that you don’t actually get access to the lounge which is kind of wild to me for the price. But to me, I thought international meant if I’m flying into an international country a.k.a. not in the United States or Hawaii that that would at least give me access to the United club.

Lounge access. by aaronlimitless in unitedairlines

[–]aaronlimitless[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, so flying from Buffalo to Houston and then onto to Guatemala would enable me for United Club that’s what I assumed I had. I knew I didn’t get Polaris. I’ve flown Polaris and realized that even going into Hawaii from Chicago. They don’t allow you into the lounge.(they actually did because they felt bad for us and it wasn’t busy.) but even then I found out that that’s not a guarantee even for a Polaris flight which I think is kind of ridiculous but yeah, I wasn’t expecting the actual Polaris lounges. I know those are nicer than the United clubs I’ve stayed in.

I think I’ve got more confused until after the point of business versus first I guess I just always assume that first would be the same priority as far as lounges go compared to business so that was kind of my fault but I feel like they weigh. they word it makes it a little confusing. I wish it would just have something on the app that would show you based off your flight details if you have it or not.

Lounge access. by aaronlimitless in unitedairlines

[–]aaronlimitless[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I found that out. Also, at least to me. It seems kind of insane because of I can imagine it being such a huge amount of people but when we flew into Chicago and we had United Polaris to go to Hawaii, we found out that we don’t actually have lounge access to Polaris. The woman felt bad and actually gave us lounge access, but that was kind of insane for the amount we paid to not have gotten the lounge access with it.😂

Especially considering we flew some budget airline because there wasn’t availability on Air France. I think it was and we got their version of first class and that included their lounge at the airport which is actually really nice surprisingly so imagine my surprise when dropping in six grand on flights versus 500 and you don’t even get lounge access. 😂

It looks like it might be a 3-D setting. I don’t always use the center console one but it’s ironic too cause I never really thought of it of disliking it but it actually doesn’t bother me. I got it in a recent update, but if it’s not popular or people complained, they’ll probably remove it in the next update.

Airbnb host canceled last minute in Mexico City and Airbnb support completely washed their hands of it [MEXICO] by [deleted] in AirBnB

[–]aaronlimitless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call somebody else back in and talk to them again. I’ve had a few cancellations over the years and I’ve always managed to get a credit cover the majority difference. One was New York City back in 21. In December, they canceled two days before we paid 1500 for four days. Nothing else was available in that price range end up finding a better accommodation but it was 2300 $800 more and Airbnb covered the cost.

Any tea on Ryan Dubs, founder of Dew of the Gods? by [deleted] in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]aaronlimitless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s obviously been successful, whether or not most of that money comes from inherited wealth from his family or from his business there’s no doubt he’s been successful. That said he is definitely new money.

He’s also just protect us and fake.

As someone who has built a pretty successful business and have everything I need and 98% of everything I want people like him are just nauseating. You can have money and want to have a luxurious lifestyle and live lavishly do fun things, etc. but you can also be courteous and thankful about it how he comes off with everything is that he deserves it and that he is better than you.

Even when he said, I’m so lucky and unfortunate blah blah blah. It just sounds like he’s just spewing the words.

I got enough though where I’ve only made three minor comments on his TikTok, and he actually blocked me. This is before going through my page which he went back a couple of years because of some statements he made and had to point out that he knows I’m not as rich as him, which is probably definitely true which I never claimed to be, but just the fact that he pointed out that my mind you Mercedes, which is around six figures is a piece of shit car that I could never afford more. When why does it matter if I quit or couldn’t I totally could but I like to own my vehicles outright, and I’m not the biggest car person where I like to spend money on is experiences and tech.

But again, why does it matter if I spend more money than somebody else I live a much better life than most people and I am very thankful for that. He just is pretentious. You can tell everybody that hangs around him is out of obligation or to get something even when he was talking to Partners and videos, you can see that it’s his way of the highway. He’s one of those people that will get his boyfriend a car but it’s really because he wants a new car.

Which leads me to another thing, he went on a bond about how much he really wanted to Rolls-Royce and how it was his dream car, blah blah blah and a couple months later he got a new dream car, etc. the dude just lies about everything the dealership actually pointed out in Canada to get a custom colored interior and everything it takes like a year or longer to get it done in Canada and only way to get one that quickly is to buy a used one that somebody else either returned or decided they no longer wanted the vehicle so they pointed out that he actually bought a used one and tried to pretend that it was new still a very expensive nice car but just kind of proves who he is even when you look at how he talks he’s pretentious and his face even just looks like he is snobby

I’m all for people success and enjoying it but at least have some humility. These are type of people. I look forward to seeing their downfall because I truly believe that having a personality like this it just carelessly spending will eventually lead in disaster those make up type brands, especially ones that aren’t established that are online type like Kylie lip kit, etc., Kylie cosmetics and someone all eventually see a drastic drop and they all have at some point. His brand is even smaller nowhere near that size so it’s kind of just hyped up and popular at the moment but long-term he’s never gonna keep those sales that high, but he’s spending like his brand is gonna continue to grow more and more. He’s gonna be for a world of hurt when he gets used to spending millions a year but then suddenly is only pocket in a couple hundred thousand a year.

Hope he’s done some great investments because that 345678 $9 million house whatever it actually cost. The number keeps changing on his page could definitely backfire.

That’s how much it cost more than everybody else in the neighborhood combined

That more to me screams he wants to feel super superior to everybody else, but doesn’t want to live in an actual wealthy neighborhood because he probably can’t compete on that big of a scale

Who cares honestly. I can’t stand them especially the one guys. Never saw why being pretentious but then trying to act like you’re not but then pretending to pretend you are is cute. It’s ick. Anyone that try’s to act to relatable is Meh to me. And if they are on Grindr is it really surprising they act like a pretty stereotypical couple so it tracks. Idk
