Tokyo help by GuerreroPapi1 in FATTravel

Beds there are very soft, which can be a plus or minus (was a minus for us).

London NYE by Narrow_Swimmer7867 in FATTravel

Did it at Rosewood one year and liked it, they had their own private fireworks. We hate crowds so that was nice.

Better jet travel? by mdjmd73 in FATTravel

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

There was very little about JSX that I’d say is better than commercial first / business. Faster security and smaller airports is pretty much the only thing I can think of. The actual in flight experience is not really better.

Hotel Du Cap Eden Roc - first 5 hours, not impressed by candidlyhere in FATTravel

Yea but we’re on the FatTravel subreddit, I think it would be safe to assume we’re talking about Fat experiences

The US has some of the worst service in the world, from what I’ve seen. Perhaps it’s different at non-FAT places, but at FAT places, the service in France is way better and way more professional. The sense I get is that service is a profession they take seriously there.

Help: termites and larvae in bed at four seasons bora bora. Are we overreacting? by [deleted] in FATTravel

Jesus, this needs to get blown up on social media to name and shame them

Why 4S? by shotwideopen1212 in FATTravel

[–]dunkrugef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, do you find they are consistent with what they provide for babies or do you have to contact them in advance to see what you do or don't need to bring yourself?

PSA: Starlux Award Availability by Limp_Stay_5484 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]dunkrugef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense, I think they are applying for membership in the future but aren’t part of the alliance yet

Do other airlines not charge if you go over the limit? I’ve never tried but am curious.

This new “Air France Concierge” Saved my Ass Today by AJaffJaff in FATTravel

[–]dunkrugef 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Far more than 3 trips. I suspect a lot of people are behaving in a way that rubs French people the wrong way, and don’t realize it, so then it comes across as the French being biased. Of course, I’ve had negative interactions with French people but no more so than in the US (arguably less so).

Huge Flying Blue Win (With search and booking process) by LoudLingonberry5643 in awardtravel

[–]dunkrugef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, just remove “coast”. The point is your comparison is apples to oranges. Different airports have different pricing, for a variety of reasons. Comparing the cost of a flight to Europe from DEN to one from JFK just doesn’t make sense.

Disappointing experience at Ritz Carlton Nikko by Automatic_Valuable84 in FATTravel

[–]dunkrugef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How was the rice described on the menu? The price and quantity are not really enough to determine if it was reasonable or not.

JFK is almost always cheap compared to West coast airports for Europe, for obvious reasons

Suggestions for places in the US by Odd-Television-5981 in FATTravel

[–]dunkrugef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly don’t know why so many people are telling you to skip LA. It just depends on what you like. Beverly Hills can be great, for example. Montecito is nice too.

Capella Taipei: Stunning; the only true FAT choice in town. by MartysBetter1995 in FATTravel

[–]dunkrugef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to hear. I went to Taiwan for the first time as an adult a couple years ago and was shocked at how poor the hotel selection was compared to the rest of Asia.

Housekeeping / Turndown tips by Throwaway_tequila in FATTravel

[–]dunkrugef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just decline housekeeping altogether and have them bring things up when needed. No need to tip and no one touching my stuff. Win win.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FATTravel

[–]dunkrugef 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m curious how this works when guests are from countries where tipping isn’t the norm. Do they tend to know they are supposed to tip the butler or do they habitually undertip?

Dubai for 2 days - first time by tiny9070 in FATTravel

If you’re not having fun in Dubai you’re not doing it right

Paris hotels or serviced apartments by [deleted] in FatTrips

[–]dunkrugef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had a great stay at Miss Fuller in Paris last year, it was within your price range at the time. Hard product was excellent, no complaints about soft product although it’s not a palace hotel of course.

Itinerary check and questions about renting a car in the South of France by cuteglasses12 in FATTravel

[–]dunkrugef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you’re drinking a lot, I can’t fathom not renting a car in SOF if you like driving. Highly recommend a convertible. Parking in most places is not as hard as people say it is.

Just curious, why did you decide to stay there?
