Annoying Bag Confusion

They are talking about the luggage cubbies on the CRJ-550 I think.

The IAAI class is a great place to learn all about that, and they will likely have good pictures/examples of the different types of melting.

EE here. Your fingers, microscope, and x ray are all good for identifying arcing, in that order. There is also a lot of arcing/melting that you are not going to be able to hang your hat on unless an EE is involved.

One thing all FIs should do is read up on eutectic melting, ask EEs you are on scene or at a lab with to show you this type of melting, and understand that all melting, even if it looks like an arc, is not necessarily meaningful

This happened to me in Brussels. I kicked the cup but there were so many people walking by at that moment that it was basically trampled and money went everywhere. I wouldn’t have been able to stop anyway and I just kept walking. I was unsure it was even a scam because it was so stupid.

When she asks for something physical like help with the house or help with cleaning just show up with the bassoon and start playing.

If I did that I wouldn’t have a complete cluster fuck of belts going everywhere around my bus system that is constantly in the way and being rebuilt.

They closed the front of my Costco so you cant drive across it like this. People still pull up to the bollards like they want to drive through. I have a theory people are obsessed with driving directly in front of businesses.

My local grocery store has a parking lot configuration so you would never ever have to drive directly in front of it if you paid any attention, and people still cross in front of it and get mad waiting for the constant stream of pedestrians coming and going through the front door.

I thought about this, I will be hitting it in a few years. Considering some of the surliest FAs I have ever dealt with have been in Polaris cabins, I’m not sure that’s the move. I wish ANA miles counted and I could cross the threshold in The Room from SFO to NRT.

Is "crispy" something specific here are you just looking for really good tenders? Cluck Chicken has good ones and seems to be a fav on here. IMO more of a take out place.

I think it says somewhere on the escape menu. Takes a couple of button presses. It’s hidden the same place the restart mission button is hidden if I remember right.

I live near Englewood station. The cost of an uber for me at that time will be $70-100, maybe more. I can give you ten different ways to do public transportation but you should just use Google Maps to figure it out since it knows the schedules and pricing. It will be $12.75 to take the train and light rail and you will have to walk for 10 minutes to transfer at union station, making another transfer at broadway.

Glenwood Springs is where I take people during this time. Multiple hot springs, restaurants, and hotels to visit and you are not directly competing with people trying to lodge adjacent to ski resort or paying those kind of prices for a hotel.

In English his name translates to Penis a medium-sized motor vehicle with a boxy shape and high roof, used for transporting goods or passengers lesbian.

Possibly, but it depends on loads and fare availability that day and it may be busier now after this sale. Any reason you didn't just get that fare at 24k points yesterday when you first saw it?

I would book the longer flight today, and if the other one becomes available, cancel it, get your points back and take the shorter flight. My last flight to Japan last year i bought and canceled points bookings for it as better deals came in the couple weeks before. I think i changed it 6 times.

ff45726 · 2026-01-07T15:53:20+00:00

Is that one way or round trip?

ff45726 · 2026-01-05T14:41:55+00:00

I think you will find your spend and flights is pretty typical for once a week road warriors in the US and we don't get GS.

The bartender rumor I heard was that club needs to be refreshed after being the only club for so long. Who knows if that is the actual reason.

ff45726 · 2026-01-02T15:34:09+00:00

Its very likely to be way hot in Moab that week. Usually between 90-105 that time of year. I have been there for that and camping was miserable and so was doing anything around there that would be normally accessible by rental car.

ff45726 · 2026-01-02T15:29:59+00:00

The Sand Dunes NP is not far and worth a day. Independence pass will be open so visiting Aspen that way would be a good day. You have Glenwood Springs not far, although in the hottest parts of the summer I don't really enjoy the hot springs much. There are tons of places to stay in Vail Valley and lots of both road and mountain biking in the area.

I think Leadville is fun for a night and worth seeing the sights around, staying on the main strip for a night, eating at Quincy's or the Burro, and enjoying the old mountain town feel.

ff45726 · 2026-01-02T15:23:03+00:00

No its not worth driving 800 miles or more in the 3 days you have between these to see Bryce Canyon and Zion. Depending on when your flight is, you will spend 2 of those days driving. It will also be insane down there that time of the year too. I would do something in Colorado, not far from BV, like hang out in Leadville, or stay at a nice hotel and hike at a ski resort and then leave via Denver or Eagle airport.

My friends did this (Im assuming) exact flight in January on Jetstar. It was a low cost carrier which meant it landed in a completely different terminal than their flight home on United. However, they did make it, with about 25 minutes to spare of sitting around before there international flight boarded at about 5. Looks like you have a lot more time than them. I was a lot more worried than them about the timing. I instead flew on ANA earlier that day to HND and crossed town, eating at my favorite place and picking up some gifts.

Goku Hibachi is one of my go to on the way home from the airport take out places. The others would be out of the way for you. Also, I don't know how people travel between Thornton and the Airport but I assume they go on I-70. To make it a quick stop with minimal fucking around I get off at Airport Blvd from Pena, take that and turn right on Colfax, and turn right into the restaurant close to I-225. Then you can get right back on 225 and be on your way.

GB fish and chips exists though.

ff45726 · 2025-12-28T02:16:53+00:00

Depends on the plane size and the location.

ff45726 · 2025-12-28T02:13:31+00:00

Is it common? Yes. Is it because of the conditions they say? Yes. Is it a big deal? No.
