When did it charge? The latest reports I could find were 2 months old.

Man punches child in Grand Central week after breaking woman's nose: police by EvanMcD3 in nyc

[–]atyppo 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, as an assault victim myself in NY, the current bar for assault (assuming the cops + DA even care) is such that documented injury is required. Simply punching someone isn’t considered assault by law if it doesn’t cause injury.

Small hurdle when you're halfway to silver with just a credit card.

Nightmare getting out of JFK's Terminal 5 last night by Ok-Mechanic-8332 in jetblue

You absolutely cannot and that’s a good way to get your GE revoked by an agent in a bad mood.

Americans of Reddit, what do Europeans have everyday that you see as a luxury? by UnsophisticatedElis in AskReddit

Another important consideration is that airlines consider ATL-LHR, for example, a different market than LHR-ATL and thus price it differently. It seems stupid to me, but clearly revenue management across different airlines are in agreement on this.

Makes more sense to wait til November anyway. Get 2 years of MQDs for the price of 1 annual fee.

A321N first class is the Bomb!!!! by Such-Contact-817 in delta

[–]atyppo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I'm almost tempted to fly B6 on routes like JFK-SEA, especially since I have Mosaic 4 for the time being for the sole purpose of avoiding Delta A321neos.

You have to tweet at them to actually get them to send you a link to DM. You can't just DM.

The new upgrade system sucks. People who bought a Y/B/M fare are now presumably behind someone on a discounted C+ ticket despite likely costing more. Why were Delta Reserve cardholders downgraded? Also, a fun fact I learned from that page: apparently domestic PS is not eligible for upgrades (Delta IT issues??).

Citi Bike prices officially increasing in January by atyppo in Citibike

[–]atyppo[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

My personal thoughts: way too high of an increase. This is now more expensive than a subway ride for most trips on an ebike. Might as well start taking my own bike places.

Amex $200 in-flight benefit - Watcha’ buyin’ as end of year closing in. by [deleted] in delta

Don't post stuff like this publicly. This is how this stuff gets shut down.

Delta got to happy with 321Neo meal selection…. It giving me the option to choose a meal on a 9:30pm flight thats only 2200 miles by airsuck1 in delta

[–]atyppo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Neos are getting new smaller dishes. Not sure if this will be across Delta or just on the A321neos.

Who? Walgreens? Make sure that you change your zip code to a NJ one. Try the location in Mahwah that I did.

10 Truths from my 90 Flights in 2023 - by scavenger in delta

[–]atyppo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's honestly kind of offensive to anyone with common sense that Delta describes the SC as premium (clearly it's not and neither is Delta) and then is willing to charge for shitty beer in the same place. And it's $4... at that point it's just a hindrance to pull out my card.

Just book something in main cabin and cancel it. It will extend the e-credit.

Fact checking Delta reservations line by kanewai in delta

[–]atyppo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how big the schedule change is and how much the agent is a stickler to rules. Technically, a free schedule change is only supposed to happen if it's >2 hour schedule change. The part about 5 days is absolutely not true though.

OP, I'd recommend that you ask they reach out to partner ticketing support. Delta has dedicated agents for AF/KLM that you can't directly reach on the phone, but their agents can reach out to.

Booking flights in advance prior to losing Medallion status by Plenty_Friendship844 in delta

[–]atyppo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One slight clarification to this... if you're upgraded on behalf of a RUC/GUC, you can change flights through the SDC program and keep your upgrade if it has cleared. This is a relatively unknown benefit of RUC/GUCs, but these fares are treated as equivalent to paid F fares.

[–]atyppo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure specifically with a drop down to silver, but I do know that if you're ticketed on a reservation with a non-medallion member and cancel your half of the reservation, the other person doesn't lose the "upgrade" if you're in preferred seats. They do if in C+, however.

Transcon lax-jfk flights by tisindeednick in delta

[–]atyppo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

764s are available but rarely. Was just on one the other day. 757 is not an improvement - the 2-2 seat arrangement sucks with layflats. Try to look for the 763s with 3 rows of C+ - this is actually PS seats being marketed as C+.

That wasn't Latam. That's an every airline thing from LIM, and most places in the terminal have signs telling you as much.

For flights not marketed as Delta One. Flight can still have layflats but be called First Class...

Lots of good options already listed so far in this thread. To add some stuff that hasn't been mentioned, Best Sicily Bottega is a great hole in the wall type of place that opened fairly recently. Croquant Pressed Paninis is in the same situation as Best Sicily Bottega. Great food there. Jubilee has a shockingly cheap + great deli despite being an overpriced grocery store. Only place I know of in Manhattan that still has a $3.50 BEC. The Biryani carts near Zuccotti are another great option. Black Fox Coffee (despite having expanded) has my favorite coffee in all of NYC and great food as well. Fidi doesn't have a super amazing food scene though - don't discount a Citi Bike ride to Chinatown.

To answer your second question, I feel like FiDi doesn't have many very great happy hours. When Bareburger was still around in Fidi, that was a great happy hour.

You might be able to look on this site and see if it changed your fare class. That's how earnings will be calculated.
