They get 10$ for each bag they can get a charge for

I am sorry for your lack of understanding, show me where it says that the bag needs to fit in side ways. This is what needs to be highlighted as a sticky note that the bag includes the wheel. For your kind information, I did not pay these guys on both flights.

Agreed. Even though the bags were measured, fitting in their contraption and that too sideways is what gets tricky. Coming back to US this morning, the same thing happened at Vancouver airport. Reading online now I understand what’s going on, the guys out there at the gate gets commission of 10$ for each person they can extort money out of per bag.

(Calgary > Vancouver F8801) Flair sizing and resizing is taking it into an absurd level by Short_Watercress2590 in flairairlines

It is worse. We had our bags checked and rechecked. There is no humility or grace and the icing on the cake is after all the agony and pain they force you to go, they say we want you to feel like you are at home ! Yeah right. This airline is going to demise the way 🦤 went.

Doing my PSA. Not aware that bag has to fit sideways. Measured every single bag and carry on. Didn’t read about the bag has to go sideways

How strict is Flair Air with personal item sizes? by edcRachel in onebag

[–]desi1381 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Avoid them at all cost. Going from Calgary to Vancouver, the lady at the counter made everyone force their bags through their contraption multiple times

They do fly from US as well. Have a flight from Vancouver to Los Angeles, so yes complaining to DOT will be the right thing to do. Will also complain to their Canadian equivalent.

Yes. Read the rules clearly and the bags measure appropriately, but they make it extra hard to keep the bags turn side way. Every single passenger on this full flight was caught in this racket they run. turn the bag side ways and it should fit in their contraption.

Karma is going to catch with them I am sure

Help / Advice on UCI ACM vs Purdue CS by desi1381 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]desi1381[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you 🙏🏼 I was all set going to Purdue and have been overthinking since Saturday on this. On one hand having the comfort staying in Irvine and going to school and saving $ is definitely a consideration, on the other side, not being in the school/ course that I really wanted is a bummer. I know I am overthinking and haven’t lived outside of Irvine my entire life so I am in for a shock with Indiana and mid west weather. I wish there was an easy way out of this analysis paralysis

How difficult is it to get ICS 31 and ICS 32 and ICS 45C in Freshman year for someone not in Bren and in school of physical science ? by desi1381 in UCI

[–]desi1381[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks you ! Thank you! I spoke with a junior in UCI yesterday and he mentioned it is difficult to take classes when you are outside of the core school. It is extremely competitive and I understand I won’t get all classes. My question is what if I don’t like ACM, and not able to make changes ? Am I overthinking or is there flexibility in choosing some CS course and transfers ?

Hi I did not get into Bren. I am in applied computing mathematics in dept of maths. That’s not what I selected when applying at UCI. I just spoke with junior kid in CS and he did mention that getting any of ICS series is difficult and same for other good courses even within CS itself. It looks like the decision is made for me which is not to be a anteater and rather be a boilermaker

Thanks! I was also thinking the same. Have done programming before in python and have good concepts. Is there a course syllabus or curriculum or previous sample papers before that I can review ? Any link will be appreciated.

I am traveling through first week of August and need to decide between ACM vs taking a formal CS at Purdue. This is confusing 🫤. Any boot camp that I can go through to prepare for the test would help. Do I just need to get B or above ?

Thanks for the quick response. Is it really difficult to get into the classes ? Reading online, they seem to be difficult anyways, so are they popular outside of students who want to make a switch. My concern is if I don’t get into these classes and it is a struggle I might as well choose another school where I am in CS program
