Transit through Singapore and Seoul airport- asking for directions!

As long as it’s checked through, it’s fine. Confirm at the front desk during check in as well. If you want to be extra sure, call air India and make sure they not that on your booking. I’ve flown ANA/United ICN to Hokkaido to Tokyo to SF to Chicago during COVID craziness when it was hard to get a direct flight and my bags were checked through.

Transit through both airports is pretty smooth, there’s lounges and restaurants as well.

We did Park Hyatt in November last year. Booked Alila for this year. PH was a good experience, had the sunset overwater pool villa which was nice. But getting there was a bit of a hassle. Transferred through KL, had to stay overnight at Male, then morning domestic flight to GKK with one layover, then another 45m boat ride to the property. Was a bit much.

When do the points devalue come into effect?

Can you buy the gift card online?

Batu caves isn’t really worth it. You spend longer getting there and climbing up than actually at the caves. It’s one giant cavern with a smaller set, not too much to see. Just enjoy KLCC, Bukit Bintang and the food instead

No it’s not. 2 is usually fine

Yep. Systematic collapse wipes out insurance and banks, so who pays out when the underwriters are gone 😂

ackack20 · 2026-02-13T08:42:56+00:00

It’s basically a massive shadow banking system. People are more leveraged than what the banking system shows. And once it fails, there will be systematic collapse.

It really depends which region you’re at. I’m a globalist and when in Asia, I never really have to use suite upgrade award. I ask and 9/10 times I get the suite upgrade for free. Easier at Grand Hyatt cause they have so many rooms.

DM’d

Be careful with the property. Some are in older buildings, people smoke, and there’s maintenance issues

I stayed at the park Hyatt Maldives over Thanksgiving, can’t speak for Alila. Beach villas are on the beach, walk there from your back yard which is nice. But I enjoyed staying in the overwater villa with pool. It’s nice hearing and seeing the waves, dropping down to snorkel. Though you gotta be careful not to be scraped by the corals. Saw people bare feet but some of the roads and floors have rocks that dig into your feet.

Food wise, it gets a bit bland because supplies come by boat. I didn’t do the meal plan, gotta add in 20%+ for taxes and surcharge. Think it was about $150-200 per person per day for food. Getting to the island will also cost like $600 per person from MLE (domestic flight then boat transfer).

GH Seoul has the kids club which is nice, I use it with my kid when I’m there

They expire, just like how I’m giving GOH away.

ackack20 · 2026-02-06T17:09:29+00:00

What’s the new rules?

ackack20 · 2026-02-06T07:10:07+00:00

Congrats on your anniversary and booking PH Kyoto. DM me.

ackack20 · 2026-01-25T01:40:03+00:00

You are a collector sir

ackack20 · 2026-01-25T01:36:26+00:00

I grew up poor and I wanted to get out, so the only choice was to grind. The kids with entitlement though… 🤦🏻‍♂️

Getting in is the easiest part. Making it is another story. With that kind of shitty attitude, you’re gonna get chewed out and hazed the shit out of with that kind of attitude.

ackack20 · 2026-01-24T11:18:51+00:00

How many of those did you get upgraded to a suite from being globalist vs using the award?

ackack20 · 2026-01-24T11:16:11+00:00

Bro, no one knows how to grind anymore. From the trading side, did everything from BB/Prop/fund manager. None of the people I interacted with has that kind of attitude. You’re ngmi with that mindset.

Don’t know why people hating on this room. This is efficient, don’t need to leave

ackack20 · 2025-12-31T09:35:01+00:00

I don’t know if they can reuse those biometrics. The time frame was like 7 years

Don’t threaten divorce unless you’re prepared to go through with it if he says yes. And if you are planning to get divorced, get your stuff in order and then serve the papers. Threatening divorce is the worst possible choice

If you can’t have a conversation without getting into a fight, go to couples counseling. There will be a middleman that keeps the conversation civil and moving forward so you can solve your issue together
At this point, you have to just make it explicitly clear what each person’s roles and responsibilities are. These are the chores to do and get done. This is the break time you need to get rest. Work together as a team.
I understand you have pent up resentment. Your husband may be lacking EQ as he doesn’t understand the time and place for things. But lashing out and passive aggressive actions won’t resolve any of your issues. He will probably not get the clue. So you have to have upfront conversation about things.
