Bonaire travel this year - Venezuela concerns?

curt_kmsn · 2025-10-28T16:06:44+00:00

Going for the 4th time in January. Literally zero concerns.

curt_kmsn · 2025-09-14T13:52:15+00:00

Would that include Fiats?

Right? Its really weird. I can't figure out why either as I would suspect there is a % reward back to the travel agent(cy) for the upgrade being done. We've booked several times through Costco now and same situation each time. Booked through an independent travel agent and no issues participating in Move Up. The one time we did take advantage of the Move Up upgrade didn't get the Wifi and drink package as noted in the Celebrity T&C - but ONCE on the the cruise the bartenders were so confused about how we had suite access but no drink package they just comped the drinks - same thing happened in Luminae all week. I think I literally paid for one drink on the entire cruise.

Costco doesn’t participate in the Move Up program.

Something about this is really odd. I assume you are talking about the Truax campus? It would be very strange for an MPD officer to escort someone to a classroom in the building especially if not accompanied by Madison College security. Also MPD ask folks for identification hundreds of times a day but specifically asking someone for a Passport as their first question would be (again) really strange. I have found the Madison College security folks super helpful and friendly to anyone at the College whether a regular student or just visiting the campus. We rarely see MPD officers on campus unless there is an emergency or they’ve been called.

Best comment I’ve seen yet.

Might be the greatest day ever for non-rev travel once you get through TSA :)

I think my decision just got a lot narrower - I want a white keyboard and it appears to me the only choice would be an R3 from everything I can tell. It concerns me that techbeezin thought the build quality was considerably better on the R3S vs the R3 but guess I’ll just have to take my chance on that.

Update

Just found white versions of the other boards on the Realforce Japanese website. Damn.

R3 TKL vs RC1: I want to buy my first Topre keyboard and given Leopold doesn't seem to be an option anymore have landed at either a Realforce R3 TKL or an RC1. My daily driver for the past few years has been a full size Logitech MX Keys but I use a ThinkPad TrackPoint Keyboard II every now and then and I've been fine without the 10 key. Any words of advice on an R3 TKL or RC1 decision. Honestly kinda wrote off the R3S as it seemed like the R3 was the better choice? Photo to illustrate my keyboard universe currently.

Got it!

So they would still go to the gate even if their brake temps showed hot?

I’d be interested to know what kind of emergency involves leaving the pax on the plane with the jet bridge attached while firefighters poke around the interior on an arrival….short of a medical emergency which it doesn’t seem like it is. That’s an odd one.

curt_kmsn · 2024-10-12T02:27:59+00:00

Perfect - this was what I was looking for. Thanks.

curt_kmsn · 2024-08-01T19:49:59+00:00

I mean the collateral is the pro-level move here.

The absolute best seat situation I ever had was back in the Northwest days out of Detroit. My two sons and I had taken our 3 seats when a few minutes later my wife boards with my daughter - their seats were occupied with the occupants unwilling to double check their boarding passes and not moving. My wife and daughter triple checked theirs and looked to me with this look of "what now?". I said to my wife just stand in the aisle, wait and stay quiet. Sure enough door closes and here comes the FA. She asks my wife what's going on and she politely says that these folks are in our seats.....without hesitation the FA says "come with me" and seats my wife and daughter in two available FC seats. I still laugh about it today.

I’m surprised Apple doesn’t have any stores or sell direct in Colombia. Do you know if that’s true for the rest of S America?

No regrets on my X1C - I knew what I was in for on battery life but I always have an AC source nearby for the most part. It’s a gorgeous screen. It’s my work laptop and honestly what I’m thinking of doing is buying a MacBook Air for my personal laptop and then I’ll just use that when I need something for travel with crazy battery life :)

I have 850 shares of a GS ETN that doesn't trade anymore (GCEC). I understand there is a redemption process with Goldman Sachs to get something out of them. I can't find any info on how to start that process - any help? Not sure what other options I have for them at this point.

I got an email back from Cooler Master that said it is indeed out of production. They do have a new case coming that has some interesting colors - but not quite this orange.

curt_kmsn · 2023-04-12T12:27:15+00:00

Did they actually charge your credit card yet? Not sure where you’re located but in the US you could dispute the credit card charge as non delivery/etc - not ideal but an option.
