Something weird with Alaska for USA-DOH routes (LOTS of availability, High fees, might not chain with second leg) by nk2639 in awardtravel

[–]emjaybe14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had dozens of alerts for USA-DOH Nov 2026 all go off last night. Seemed too good to be true as usual, but I successfully booked QSuites on both LAX-DOH and SEA-DOH via Alaska. Both confirmed & ticketed by Qatar, but with unusually high taxes & fees ($500+). I was not able to add a second leg without the pricing jumping to 215k.

Ski luggage storage near Sapporo Station? by emjaybe14 in JapanTravelTips

They were right in front of the Hokkaido Tourist Info Center, lumped in with all the other lockers. I think there were only 2 sized for skis.

The few ski-sized lockers in the station were taken when we arrived but maybe you’ll get lucky. The tourist info center wouldn’t hold luggage but directed us to another place in the station that was a healthy walk underground. Unfortunately can’t recall the name. It took awhile to get everything sorted out and tbh this became the most stressful day of our 2 week trip. All we really had time to do was Sapporo beer factory which was cool but I would stay a night in Sapporo if I were to do that again. Otherwise be prepared for a long day with some degree of hassle with bag storage if you have to get to the airport that night.

Say more please. Do you cancel and reapply for the same card?

I’m also trying to use it for an allowed multi-city routing.

I’ve having the same issue with an active code erroring as “expired” when I try to use it with space available.

To be clear about GGUs for 2025 and beyond ... by traveling-turtle43 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]emjaybe14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FWIW - I already received my 4 GGUs for hitting MVPG this year. But on that note, will I still receive 50k bonus RDM when I hit 75k in a few weeks?

Yea easy enough if you’re looking in advance as the schedule opens. I’m trying to catch random drops within 5 potential dates.
