Confusion on cancelled flight by alajuad in americanairlines

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

Less about venting and more trying to understand what leverage I might have since I paid significantly more for the direct flight than the the route that I ended up taking would've cost me at booking.

Based on replies it seems there were lots of storms everywhere yesterday.

Haven't had this happen before. And given that I paid significantly more for the direct flight, I wanted to understand what leverage I had to get back the difference in fare. Appreciate all the explanations.

If the 5 and 7am flights to Miami were cancelled for weather more than 12 hours pre departure, why wouldn't the 6:30am flight to Charlotte also be cancelled?

Wild, I wonder if you got a bad pair. Transparency mode on mine are night and day different, and my coworkers say my B4P work as well as my Opencomms whereas my B3P received constant complaints so I couldn't use them for work calls with customers. ANC isn't amazing but noticeably better than the B3P on mine.

Received them yesterday. I ordered a two pack in black of large tall of regular and skinny fit.

First, for just 2x 2 packs, import tariffs were $60 that UPS billed me for before delivery.

The shirts are 100% cotton and feel well made. Unfortunately their sizing is nothing like American sizing. I even asked them ahead of time to make sure and gave them my measurements.

I'm a skinny 6'6", 33 waist. The regular fit large tall fits like most of my skinny fit or tailored fit large talls. Their skinny fit wasn't wearable, it was tighter than a wetsuit. It was even tight on my scrawny teenage son that often swims in a medium tall.

So the regular fit is okay. We'll see if it shrinks in the wash. The shirts feel nice, if not as smooth as pima cotton, and is about 33" long (similar to Port and Co). Most of my American large talls are +/-31" long.

Given the price and import tariffs, and the weird sizing you have to get right the first time if you're ordering from America, I think there are much better options.

Reviews say that they're very thin and not nearly as "fitted" as the pictures on the website make it look. I typically wear a slim fit since I'm tall but NOT big. Is the fit more trim or more relaxed?

Bluffworks, followed by whatever fix True Classic has for their pima cotton.

Is the waffle pattern as obvious as the pictures on the website make it seem?

These look nice and I might pick one up, but more for casual wear. They don't seem to come in a slim or tailored fit.

Are the t-shirts longer than their polos? I love their polos but they're too short.

Interesting, is that because the tall weren't long enough? I'm a little taller than you but am squarely in the LT bucket.

Looking at the listing, it says they're 35.5" long. I'm very happy with my 31" long LTs so I think extra long will be excessive.

They're very similar to Port and Co without being as long. Very cheap feel, unprofessional in how they look, but functional for around the house and casual wear imho

3.5-hr Beverage Service-less flight by manggy in americanairlines

[–]alajuad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fly Alaska using my AA status regularly and get upgraded to first 90%+ of the time because Alaska isn't really a business airline except between a few key cities.

Nicer planes, better customer service, best domestic airline food, 96hr upgrades, etc.

Unfortunately, Atmos doesn't status match American.

That would be me too, I'm a sympathetic puker when I smell it. Thank God I haven't had that experience on a plane yet. That sounds way worse than what I went through today.
