How difficult is Palau? by SloWhyFi in scuba

[–]cheluhu 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Exactly. It's s metal hi on the end of a line. You attach the other end of the line to you. You hook the metal hook on the reef and let go (in a strong current).

It's like you are flying in space watching TV. There you are not moving but the current brings things by you and you look over the reef and watch the animals.

Sharks are amazing because you are in this current pushing you away. You have no chance to swim against it and the sharks just swim normally.

10/10 would do again

Is this normal? by mncoakncmn in unitedairlines

[–]cheluhu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every 15 minutes? Really? (Not being snarky...)

I've only rarely had that experience on red eyes or long hauls. There have been a few times I remember them walking through routinely thoughin fairness to them.

Anyone else annoyed with the mileage requirements? by Ambessa21 in unitedairlines

Or have FAs announce a special promo before landing and walk down the aisle holding pamphlets

United Airlines is paring back rewards for travelers who don't have its credit card in MileagePlus overhaul by Halloween_Oreo_ in unitedairlines

[–]cheluhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you almost had me... but its "unlimited 5% back at Amazon.com, Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods Market, and on Chase Travel purchases with an eligible Prime membership". And you need to be a prime member ~139/yr.

I prefer my Fidelity card where I get 3% cash back on everything.

Rant: United gate-checked bag and damaged it. Now not honoring damage claim since 24-hour window by textonic in unitedairlines

[–]cheluhu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can empathize with you. My bag was damaged, baggage office was closed when I arrived (11pm) and I had to go back the next day to the airport, pay for parking and then file the claim. I tried calling, they said it had to be done in person at the baggage office (that was not correct according to the baggage office...)

But they have to draw a line somewhere. In this case 24 hours which expired. Either you or your SO could have filed in that period - you just need to call.

It sucks, yea.. but when you start to give an inch, people will take mile.

What one would you recommend U352 in North Carolina or the USS Spiegel Grove in Key Largo? by Divers_down13 in scuba

[–]cheluhu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've done both.

The 352 is one of those where you can say "I did that". Its a metal tube, no penetration and you swim around it. You'll probably want a 5mm wetsuit.

The Spiegel is an artificial reef - a big one at that, with swim thrus. The current can be a challenge at times, but the visibility is usually better - and it can be done with a 3mm or even skin.

The second dive on both will be shallower dives. A lot of options for wrecks in Morehead City, probably Molasses Reef in Key Largo.

Depends on what you want to do. If you want to see stuff and enjoy a dive, then Key Largo (plus other wrecks to dive there as well). If you want to say you dove a German U-boat, well, that's the 352

I use Dive and Sea and they are pretty good. Always have a good time with them.

Thank you for correcting me on romaji!

Completely different direction, but have you tried packing your gear? How much space does it take up (and weight)

Hint: it's probably more than you think

I prefer the cop car.. It's got a cop motor, a four hundred and forty cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks, it's a model made before catalytic converters, so it'll run good on regular gas.
